Collective Offence

Today featured an interview with someone from "the English Collective of Prostitutes", which I assume is the unacceptable face of the co-operative movement, just as at least one union's section for "sex workers" is the unacceptable face of trade unionism. Not only for these reasons, the Fabian and Christian Socialist pioneers must be spinning in their graves. Who will be interviewed next? The English Collective of Heroin Dealers?

    I dislike the sex trade. But while there are women working in it, it's good to see that efforts are being made to represent their interests. I am serious.

    Their interests are to get out of it if they can, or to be got out of it if they want to but can't.

    I agree with you. This isn't the position of the Collective, though, which is focused on safety first. Unfortunately the government seems bent on making life much less safe for prostitutes.
