Author Topic: Bill to Criminalise Punters  (Read 3630 times)

Offline S.X. MacHine

The abolitionists rear their ugly head again, this time in the shape of Ash Regan the Alba MSP who clearly has too much time on her hands.
Her bill would criminalise punters. Women who provide sex for money, she says, do so to alleviate poverty and extreme financial hardship.
My main question to her, although there are many, would be to ask how depriving women in extreme financial hardship of their income would improve their situation.
Given that the ‘Swedish model’ is now law in Northern Ireland, where the law is ignored, I suspect Ms Regan is virtue signalling to the feminist lobby.
Details available on the Scottish Government website.

In the unlikely event that this numpty zealot gets her way, Carlisle would become a boom town.

Ash Regan used to be called Ash Denham. She was making the same noises when she was with the SNP. She's obviously another man hating feminazi. She's an idiot that connects prostitution with violence. Here's an extract from here previous bout of verbal dysentery. ....

''Commercial sexual exploitation refers to a continuum of violence. Prostitution is just
one act on this continuum. Different acts will require different responses to challenge
men’s demand. However, there will inevitably be common ground and shared
learning to be found.''

Well, as an Alba MSP, I think very few people will have voted for these numpties. That said, if her appalling bill is enacted into law, it shall stand long after her political demise. Incidentally, the SNP (another soon to minority party) are in agreement with the egregious Ash.

Indeed. The operation of the Swedish model in its country of origin, has made life less safe for sex workers while having no discernible effect on the availability of sex services. Just google ‘escorts, Stockholm’ to see what I mean.

She wasn't voted in as an Alba loon, but voted in for the SNP and defected to Alba after losing the leadership battle to Humza Useless.

Oh ffs is she the “wee free” one. One of the most ironically names sects in the world.
If these arseholes were actually serious about protecting women rather than controlling them, then they would realise there’s one obvious easy, common sense solution…

Driving things underground always makes things better and safer, don’t you know?  :lol:

And who exactly is going to enforce her silly plan, she going to have coppers sitting outside every punting flat when they already have to much to do  :dash: just trying to make a name for herself as usual. And as someone said above don’t think Alex will be happy with her idea  :lol:

In Northern Ireland the Police Service do not enforce the law unless a punter has been particularly stupid and has caused someone to raise a complaint.
Ash’s law, if passed, will just be virtue signalling.

Not unless you enjoy shagging sheep, it's a punting wasteland.

The thinking that police would enforce this when they don't even attend burglaries is laughable.
