On The Road Again

by Amanda August 31, 2010

I have driven the length and… well… length of the country again. I didn’t realise that such great swathes of the M6 had been turned into car parks. My car has obviously been fitted with  a cloak of invisibility (well, folk wouldn’t pull out like that if they could see me!) and I feel almost [...]

Bradford

by Amanda May 27, 2010

More daughters, sisters, girlfriends, wives and mothers taken before their time. These girls were a target, not just because they were prostitutes, but specifically because they were street girls. Any self respecting psychopath knows that if you want to go on a killing spree, you look amongst society’s lost folk for victims. If you’re looking [...]

There’s Always One!

by Amanda April 18, 2010

Unfortunately, the one in Inverness decided to contact me. I’m a 13 yr old lookin for sex. Don’t tell the police I contacted you. I have 150 I can get more if you want more. Either a genuine 13 year old who needs to be grounded until he’s at least 40 or a sicko. I [...]

A Note To The Scottish Tax Payer

by Amanda February 17, 2010

Before I start: Note to R. If you want me to take this down, then just let me know. I noticed this on Punternet Forum earlier and it answers a couple of question that I’ve been asking: Having looked at “10 Reasons” which another poster had drawn attention to, I used the “contact us” page [...]

Why men use prostitutes

by Amanda January 16, 2010

The answer (that is) according to Julie Bindel. Before I start can I just say that I don’t like the word “use” in that context. Visit is much better, but of course ‘visit’ doesn’t have the nasty connotations that ‘use’ does, so we won’t see Julie using it anytime soon. Julie wrote another column for [...]

Minor Irritation du Jour

by Amanda January 13, 2010

According to a poster on the Punternet forum, it is ‘not possible’ to have a relationship with an escort because there will be ‘an eliment (sic)* of deep mistrust’. The evidence for this is a case in Wales where a man is accused of murdering his wife after they rowed over his use of casual [...]

Astronauts do NOT exist

by Amanda December 6, 2009

This is a confirmed fact! Graeme Pearson, former director of the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency and now a professor at Glasgow University specialising in organised crime says: "I was a policeman for 40 years and I never met a happy prostitute," Well, I’ve been on this earth for over 36 years and I’ve [...]

The Bear Makes Me Happy.

by Amanda November 22, 2009

Well it does. What do you mean you don’t know what I’m talking about? In Inverness (Academy street), there is a toy shop which has a chap in a teddy bear suit wandering up and down outside. He waves, blow kisses, hug passers by (not by force obviously) and generally makes people smile. Ok, he [...]

Prostitution and trafficking – the anatomy of a moral panic

by Amanda October 20, 2009

Thank you Nick Davies. Taken from The Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/oct/20/trafficking-numbers-women-exaggerated There is something familiar about the tide of misinformation which has swept through the subject of sex trafficking in the UK: it flows through exactly the same channels as the now notorious torrent about Saddam Hussein’s weapons. In the story of UK sex trafficking, the conclusions [...]

Here we go again!

by Amanda October 16, 2009

Another day, another misguided do-gooder. This time it’s Mary Honeyball MEP (stop sniggering at the back!). On her blog page “The Honeyball Buzz” she says: The plans announced by the Metropolitan Police to abolish its specialist unit dealing with human traficking – trafficking of women and children – are nothing short of a disgrace. So… [...]
