See link in bio for the full episode clip of ECP and @nadiawhittomemp who speaks brilliantly in support of our campaign, tackling poverty and decriminalising sex work. #decrimnow\u201d.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>A prostitutes caution is a specific type of caution reserved for the punishment of sex workers. It is a UK police warning for suspected prostitution-related offenses, including loitering or soliciting. Unlike other cautions, a \u2018prostitute\u2019s caution\u2019, does not require a person to admit an offence or agree to it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/proceed-without-caution\/\">ECP<\/a> thousands of women in the UK have received a prostitutes caution. Last year, the organisation released their<a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Proceed-Without-Caution-Report.pdf\"> \u2018Proceed with Caution\u2019<\/a> report. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research was conducted by sex workers, who interviewed their colleagues and friends on the impact of \u2018prostitute\u2019s cautions\u2019 and convictions on their lives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nadia Whittombe, MP for Nottingham East, told <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/bbc-womans-hour-prostitutes-cautions\/\">BBC Woman\u2019s Hour<\/a>: \u201cThe current situation is that the state pushes people into poverty. We know poverty is the main driver behind sex work, then the state criminalises sex work further trapping them. We need full decriminalisation of sex work because we know that is what is proven to keep women safe.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the report, the ECP emphasised the need for a full decriminalisation of sex work arguing prostitutes cautions are <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Proceed-Without-Caution-Report.pdf\">\u201ca deliberate policy against women designed to keep women in poverty by penalising those of us who use sex work to escape from it<\/a>\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police in the UK do not publicly track the number of cautions issued to individuals involved in prostitution. While there&#8217;s no official data on the number of cautions, it&#8217;s known that these cautions can have significant long-term consequences for those involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another woman, <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Proceed-Without-Caution-Report.pdf\">told the ECP<\/a>, she was kept out of jobs she would have been ideally suited for. \u201cThere are many jobs I would have loved to do, jobs I\u2019ve been offered and had to say no to,&#8221; she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Caring for my daughter over the years I\u2019ve learned things like supervising medications, doing injections, tube feeds and the rest. Social services asked if I\u2019d considered doing emergency respite. It\u2019s excellent money and would have suited my life and skills. It\u2019s perfect for me and would have fitted around what I need to do with my own child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut I couldn\u2019t even think about it as they would have done the checks and found out and I would have lost my own child. I have a disabled child. If convicted of a sexual offence while looking after someone with a learning difficulty, you\u2019re considered to be putting that person in moral danger. So it\u2019s a big no-no. You don\u2019t apply for the jobs that suit you and the ones you\u2019d like to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report also revealed how a prostitute&#8217;s caution can prevent people securing housing. <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Proceed-Without-Caution-Report.pdf\"> One woman explained<\/a>: \u201cI was lucky in that I already had a council house before I started working in prostitution and am still there. But if I moved to a different place, one of the questions on the forms is: \u201cdo you have a record?\u201d If you declare it, they can withhold housing options, or put you in specially allocated areas, which would be places you didn\u2019t want to live in. If you don\u2019t declare, they can evict you because you\u2019ve lied. It affects a lot of people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cautions also have the power to prevent someone from entering the UK. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/suitability-non-conducive-grounds-for-refusal-or-cancellation-of-entry-clearance-or-permission\/suitability-non-conducive-grounds-for-refusal-or-cancellation-of-entry-clearance-or-permission-accessible\">The Home Office<\/a> decides if a person is \u201cundesirable to admit the person to the UK, based on their character, conduct, or associations because they pose a threat to UK society\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, the cautions stop people travelling abroad. One women who participated in the research said: \u201cOne of my relatives is in America. I couldn\u2019t go as they need a background check for the visa. There are so many things I can\u2019t do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prostitutes cautions and\/or convictions can also lead to deportation. <a href=\"https:\/\/prostitutescollective.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Proceed-Without-Caution-Report.pdf\">The ECP reported of one particular police operation<\/a> in which a Romanian woman was arrested multiple times over a very short period and as a result she got six convictions for loitering and soliciting. She was given a letter saying she was a \u201cpersistent offender\u201d whose presence in the UK was deemed \u201cundesirable\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police cautions, which are typically issued for minor crimes, are filtered out from someone\u2019s record after six years and do not need to be disclosed to employers, but a prostitute\u2019s caution will show up on a sex worker\u2019s enhanced DBS check until they are 100-years-old.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prostitute&#8217;s cautions are trapping thousands of women in the UK into a cycle of poverty forcing them to accept lower paid work or to live on benefits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":199,"featured_media":73344,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2117],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-73342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-campaigns-sex-work"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>What are prostitute\u2019s cautions and how do they trap UK women into poverty?
