Hookers urgin’ Sturgeon over new indy vote

-

REBEL Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon’s fight to secede from the United Kingdom has won the support of Scotland’s HOOKERS!

Sex workers have launched a campaign backing her plan for a second independen­ce referendum.

Sex Workers For Yes says it supports the bid as a way of protecting the many EU nationals who work in the sex industry in Scotland from a hard UK Brexit.

Hooker Holly said: “Many sex workers supported independen­ce in 2014, and many will do so again when the next referendum comes.

“In particular, sex workers who are EU nationals but who work in Scotland now see independen­ce as the only chance to retain their rights to stay here.”

But the new group has also said it is against the nationalis­tsocialist SNP’s resolution that was passed at its spring conference in Aberdeen last weekend backing the so- called “Nordic model” of legislatio­n on the sex industry.

That makes the punters criminals, not sex workers, who fear it will make their work less safe.
