Independent Oxfordshire Escorts

Thames Valley Police recently made headlines for their actions in Oxford, where a man and a woman were apprehended on suspicion of running a brothel at a property in Brasenose Drift Way. The arrests were made following reports of antisocial behavior and criminal activities in the area, prompting officers from the Cowley neighborhood policing team to intervene on Sunday, February 11.

The 25-year-old woman and 43-year-old man, both residents of Oxford, were taken into custody while measures were taken to "safeguard" others present at the location. They were subsequently arrested on suspicion of maintaining a brothel used for prostitution and have been released on bail, pending further investigation.

In addition to the arrests, Thames Valley Police secured a closure order for the property through the courts. Closure orders empower local authorities or law enforcement agencies to promptly shut down premises where illegal activities or disturbances are reportedly occurring.

Situated in Brasenose Drift Way, just off Horspath Road near Hollow Way in the Cowley district of Oxford, the property in question has been subjected to heightened scrutiny in light of these events. A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police emphasized that the closure order aims to curb criminal behavior and minimize disruptions for nearby residents.

"This closure order," the spokesperson stated, "aims to deter criminal activity and mitigate disturbances for the surrounding community. It prohibits access to the premises and acts as a deterrent against antisocial behavior."

Those found violating the closure order will face arrest and subsequent legal proceedings, as warned by the police spokesperson.

Individuals with concerns regarding the actions taken by Thames Valley Police are encouraged to reach out to the authorities for clarification or further information.

There were believed to be 105,000 individuals in the UK who are involved in prostitution, up from 72,000 in 2016. The vast majority of these are women. The cost-of-living crisis is pushing yet more women into sex work and forcing them to take work from violent and exploitative clients. A 2015 National Ugly Mugs Our survey with Leeds University found 49% of sex workers were “worried” or “very worried” about their safety and 47% have been targeted by offenders. Meanwhile, 49% were either “unconfident” or “very unconfident” that police would take their reports seriously. It is estimated that 152 sex workers were murdered in the UK between 1990 and 2015. The charity Beyond the Streets highlights that 76% of those involved in prostitution experience some form of post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of this work.

Currently, sex work is legal in England, Wales and Scotland, but many of the surrounding aspects remain illegal, such as solicitation or running a brothel. The UK government have stated though that whilst they do not intend to change the law around sex work, they are committed to tackling the harm and exploitation associated with sex work. The Scottish government has also been criticised for focussing their support in this area towards charities that are not backed by sex workers, and that are focussed on getting people out of the industry rather than supporting those in it.

The Home Affairs Committee’s 2016 report, Prostitution, recommended a shift to complete decriminalisation. Dan Vajzovic, the National Police Chief Council’s lead for prostitution, who is working alongside government officials to reassess brothel keeping legislation, has called on the government to review prostitution laws to ensure sex workers can work together on the same premises to remain safe. This would “better enable the police to focus our resources on protecting sex workers and tackling those who are controlling or exploiting,” Vajzovic argues. According to National Ugly Mugs, sex workers are ten times safer working indoors than on the streets.

Christine Jardine MP, Liberal Democrat spokesperson for women and equalities, who supports the decriminalisation of brothel keeping, has called for a proper government strategy to accompany it. Also supporting decriminalisation of brothels, Labour MP, Nadia Whittome, has highlighted that “Other laws aimed at sex work – such as soliciting – should also be repealed, to improve sex workers’ rights, safety and ability to leave the sex industry if they choose. Alongside decriminalisation, the government must urgently tackle the growing levels of poverty that are pushing more women into sex work to make ends meet.”

This timely symposium will provide sex workers, safeguarding boards, police forces, local authorities, and social care providers with an opportunity to identify and debate priorities for reform and develop strategies for protecting and expanding the rights of sex workers.

Universities need to wise up to when students are doing work that’s dodgy, unfair, or risky. That could be in pubs, shops, or other casual jobs – and it could be in sex work. The myth of student sex work is that it’s only done by 19-year-old students who want a sugar daddy to buy them fancy stuff – not a parent-student who’s taking a well-paid and flexible job in between juggling studying, housework, and looking after the kids. Not that I’m judging either way – I’ve seen both – but sex workers and their reasons for doing it are different (in fact, the English Collective of Prostitutes found in 2019 that most sex workers are mums).

Sex work is different, too. Sugarbabying (usually a sexual relationship with – often much older – person in exchange for money and/or gifts) and escorting (in-person paid sex) are common. The recent cost of living survey by Canterbury Christ Church SU found that of the (few) students who had done sex work, sending used clothes was the most common type of sex work done by their students, followed by intimate photos and OnlyFans. 58.3 per cent of the students who had done sex work in the past year said it was for money reasons – with a fair bit of these saying it was specifically to pay their way through uni. Whether we like it or not – students are getting paid for a kind of work to get through the cost of living crisis, And that’s work.

Do you remember what happened back in November 2021 at the University of Durham Students’ Union? They got a lot of flak for teaching their staff about student sex work. Some people even said they didn’t care about other kinds of work (that’s not true, by the way, they did).

They did the training because they wanted their staff to know the facts and the myths about sex work. That way, they could help student sex workers in different ways. Maybe they need some money, maybe they want to quit, or maybe they just want to feel supported. It’s important that student sex workers – and trust me, they are out there – feel that their institution is on their side.

Life is getting harder, right? More and more students have to work part-time, and some of them even do sex work. I’m worried about how many of them don’t know how to stay safe, because their universities don’t tell them anything. Maybe the universities are scared of what the media or the politicians will say if they do.

There was this student sex worker I met when I worked at a students’ union. She had a nasty client who knew about this thing called “morality clause” – it’s when the university can kick you out if you don’t behave the way they want, and they have used it against student sex workers. He was blackmailing her with that. She didn’t know that her university didn’t have one until three months later. If her university had shown her some support (I mean, support for sex workers, not for sex work), this wouldn’t have happened.

Some people always say bad things about sex work. They say it’s different from other work because it’s humiliating – but that’s just their opinion, and it says more about them than about sex work. Besides, from the students we talked to, it seems that humiliation is not something that only happens in sex work.

If we don’t tell students how to be safe, they will look for it somewhere else – and they might get the wrong information. I googled “escort” and checked out The Student Room. I saw some scary, wrong, and risky answers from students to students who wanted to be escorts. And nobody said anything about the laws or the problems that come with the work that students really need to know – like if two or more sex workers share a house or live together, that’s an illegal brothel and they can go to jail for seven years.

A guide has been published with information on the law relating to sex workers, and where to get help. The guide has information on working safley.

Many college students must bear the extra responsibility of working a part-time or full-time job along with going to school. The National Center for Education Statistics found that 74% of part-time and 40% of full-time undergraduate students work. Since the balance between college classes and a job to help pay for tuition can call for a hectic schedule, some students may instead resort to work that would be considered different or unconventional. These types of jobs allow for more self-employed routes, giving more flexible scheduling. Such jobs may range from driving for Uber to earning money through cryptocurrency and trading stocks. For lots of students in their college eras, any job seems good enough to help survive.

One unconventional job that many find interesting and somewhat taboo is sex work. This work consists of performing sexual favors, acts or services in exchange for compensation, usually in the form of money. A survey conducted by the National Union of Students on student sex workers, revealed that less than 15% of its respondents felt that their schools’ student unions did not provide enough support for their line of work. In addition, 53% of respondents wanted more information regarding sexual health matters and 51% wanted more information on financial help.

Student escorts need to be supported. This article is about a student escort who worked as a full-service escort during her undergraduate degree and then continued after her degree. She enjoyed the job. After she wanted to leave she had no choice but to continue because of poverty and then started to feel trapped by the job.

It is important in this job to plan your exit strategy, save your money and invest it to secure a way out in the future. (editor)

She then approached counselling and found no help. She was even discharged from a rape recovery centre because she was deemed as putting herself in debt. 

After many years she finally met a Community Psychiatric Nurse who believed her and told her there was no shame in being an escort.

From her experience, she has set up a group called Support for Student Sex Workers, a sex worker-led organisation. It is the only one in the country.  Her group has trained universities throughout the UK.

It hurts her that people have said we are ‘pimping out’ our students because it simply isn’t true.

There is a confusing contradiction when it comes to the legality of sex work in the UK. While the act of prostitution itself is not illegal, a variety of activities fundamental to the industry, such as prostitutes working together or attempting to advertise themselves, are listed criminal offences. Although prostitution are often greatly removed from the real experiences of sex workers, in this panel, we aim to understand what changes and protections are needed by listening to those who know the industry best.

Speakers:

Miranda Kane

Writer, Performer, Comedian, Raconteuse and former sex worker

Helena Croft

Director of Streetlight UK and Former Local Parliament Politician and Parliamentary Candidate for the Conservative Party

Hayley Speed

Assistant Director of Services at akt, an LGBTQ Youth Homelessness support charity and former Head of Social Care at ‘The Men’s Room’

Bea Piper

Spokeswoman for the English Collective of Prostitutes (ECP): an organisation of sex workers working on the street and in premises with a national network throughout the UK, who campaign for the decriminalisation of prostitution and for sex workers’ rights and safety

With an amenedment to the unloved Police Bill in parliament, it could happen that the Nordic model is introduced to England. The Nordic model bans the purchase of sex, while 'decriminilising the escort' The Nordic model will also ban advertising sites. There is a fierce battle building up to fight this amendment, and hopfully amend the police bill to fully decriminilise the sexwork. Many celebrities are supporting the decriminilisation.

A newly-published open letter that calls for MPs to oppose the further criminalisation of sex work in the UK has received 150 signatures, including those of celebrities, activists, and human rights organisations (such as FKA twigs, Amnesty International, and Sisters Uncut), and figures across politics, the media, and academia.

Spearheaded by the UK campaign group Decrim Now, the letter takes aim at legislation that criminalises the purchase of sex — often known as “the Nordic Model” — warning that measures touted as solutions to sex trafficking and exploitation “will only exacerbate violence against women, including those who are being exploited”.

It also encourages politicians to take an evidence-based approach to the sex industry, and to engage with and listen to sex workers. This comes amid repeated attempts to criminalise paying for sex in the UK (including the recent Sexual Exploitation Bill put forward by Labour’s Diana Johnson, which Decrim Now links to the controversial Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill) despite evidence suggesting that the move is likely to prove ineffective, and may have harmful consequences.

“Evidence shows that the Nordic Model does nothing for the very groups it claims to protect,” the letter continues, citing a sharp increase in violence against sex workers after similar legislation was introduced in the Republic of Ireland in 2017. In 2018, the non-profit initiative Ugly Mugs Ireland reported that violent crime against sex workers went up 77 per cent after the ruling came into effect.

A new council report has revealed the latest count of sex workers in the city, 13 years after Oxford City Council to set up a specific task force to tackle a rise in prostitution. 

The most recent data, collected between December 2016 and July 2018, found that there were 46 known sex workers in the city.

A newly-released report, which detailed the statistic, states: “The prevalence of sex work is believed to have risen alongside austerity, benefit sanctions, and increased housing costs.

The city's illegal sex trade has now mostly moved from the streets to behind closed doors, authorities say.

Prostitution has evolved purely from street work to a vast network of websites and online escort services.

One particular site listed more than 160 results for escorts in Oxfordshire.

Mr Chapman said there has been a decline in the number of identified sex workers in Oxford since 2007, but that the number of off-street sex workers is 'unknown'.
