Prostitution
The geography of European prostitution is changing. So says a report by Tampep, a body that supports migrant sex workers in Europe. In 2006, Russia was the most common country of origin for sex workers, followed by Ukraine and Romania. By 2008, the EU had expanded and the new EU member states Romania and Bulgaria were in the top three.
In older EU countries, 70 per cent of prostitutes are migrants, so the effects of the EU’s changing make-up are unsurprising. What is less expected is the report’s take on criminalising prostitutes‘ clients. New to the UK but already in place in Finland and Norway, the report calls such laws “legislation . . . [that] harms the very people it seeks to protect”, by driving parts of the industry underground. As the law is intended to help women who may have been trafficked, the body’s opinion is a significant, if worrying, addition to the debate.
