Germany to prohibit FKKs offering BBBJs and other uncovered sexual liasons for money . Presumably the opportunist WGs will offer these services at increased prices ! France criminalises the punter so presumably prices there will drop as the consumer now takes a legal risk !
The prossies (being totally self-centred) are more likely to see it as a risk for themselves however minor. All prossie logic goes to justifying the end. Surely you are familiar with the Brazilian tactic? When available punters decrease, they say
they have to increase prices to make as much money as they can from the ones that are left.Many 'European' countries just now, and Britain, are poised on the edge. They could swing towards decriminalisation (as the consensus of academic and public opinion as well as the overwhelming consensus of prossie opinion, repeatedly says it's the sensible course); or they could swing towards some form of abolition (based on fear, religion, insecurity, ignoring the facts, and, sadly, their own secret lack of self-esteem).
All they have to be seen to do is "to be doing something."
Drafting a badly worded law on prostitution, is a lot easier, safer, gets them more newspaper coverage, and makes them feel 'good' and 'useful' (irrespective of whether in reality it causes more damage) -- rather doing any real work, the sort of thing we pay them for, such as sorting out immigration, crime, and true political leadership (with carefully thought-out ideals,
getting fully acquainted with the subject before mouthing off, backing it by a scientific understanding of the data, and a grasp of what can realistically be achieved if they simply concentrate).
