Not too often I agree with the Women's Institute, though after slow clapping Blair, they infinitely went up in my estimation. However, the Hampshire WI have approved their backing to a campaign to seek licencing of brothels.
Whilst generally more legislation is a bad thing, this is an area with zero legislation beyond criminalisation. Making something illegal doesn't make it go away. Licences will provide a basis to make the industry safer for both traders and punters, whilst at the same time uncriminalising those who solicit and providing the Exchequer a means to take its cut from this vastly lucrative business.
The WI wholeheartedly have my support for this campaign.
