The discussion continues

It’s not hard to understand that we didn’t like the debate about online sex work that was in the Riksdag. Where politicians even doubted our competence to be able to email them. This was the start of a debate in media, which unfortunately is only in Swedish and starts with our member’s debate article

The politician in question then countered with this text:

And our member then of course gave our answer:

We are waiting with excitement to see if the debate continues…

Support us to help!

Due to the change in legislation, many sex workers are uncertain about their future and how they will be able to work, and they are turning to us for support and help. Red Umbrella Sweden is an entirely volunteer-run organization that receives no public funding. The new law proposal included no consideration for how support and assistance would be provided to the sex workers affected by the legislation — that responsibility has fallen to us as an organization. So if you would like to help us support those impacted, we would greatly appreciate your donation!
