Sex workers unite in Westminster

This morning we report that sex workers and academics are meeting in parliament today to discuss the decriminalisation of prostitution. The meeting comes as the debate over sex work has become increasingly fierce.

Elsewhere, Tim Farron writes for Politics.co.uk about his trip to Lesvos. The Liberal Democrat leader says the UK must do more to help with the constant flow of refugees who are fleeing for their lives.

And we have a piece on how drug reform in Ireland shows just how stagnant the debate on has become in the UK.
