Strong UN backing for decriminalisation of sex work and sex purchasing

[The Libertarian]

Just as Frankie Fitgerald, the minister for everyone else's Interior is about to do the opposite, The UN's main womens rights and equality subgroup has strongly come out in favour of the decriminalisation of sex work and the payment for consensual sexual services -

Given this WHO and Amnesty International's similar views, sure in any civilized society this psychotic law on the way would be abandoned!

BTW one prominent Torler group, which has actualy directly benefitted from money confiscated by the courts from sex workers here, has claimed publically that Amnesty International was duped by a Mexican Trafficking criminal organization into supporting complete decriminalisation of sex work!

Notwithstanding that the report is as recent as September,has there been a controversy lately that a/the leading figure of UN Women is well-known for prohibitionist views ? Thought i saw something passing on twitter whereby the views of SW groups are being ignored in formulating official policy.

This is the same subgroup that gave scam artists Anita Sarkeesian and 'Zoe Quinn' a platform, calling for tighter controls of the internet (including bans on internet anonymity) because somehow calling someone out as a liar and scammer somehow equates to a anti-woman hate campaign?
