In Blowin’ Up, the women who end up at America’s first problem-solving court focused on prostitution are treated with care and respect

“You can’t just walk away,” says Q, as she describes the reality of what it’s like to leave a pimp. “There is no just walking away.” In walking away and leaving her exploiter behind, she “blew up”, a phrase used by Emmy nominated film-maker Stephanie Wang-Breal in her new documentary Blowin’ Up. In it, she spotlights the stories of women working in the sex industry with the groundbreaking court they enter after being arrested: Queens human trafficking intervention court.

Bill Wyman documentary dropped by Sheffield Doc/Fest after protests about 'sex predator'European premiere of The Quiet One is cancelled after complaints about the former Rolling Stone’s alleged grooming of his second wife, Mandy Smith, when she was a child 52 year old Rolling Stone and a teen. It's enough to give an old guy a heart attack. Once Brexit completed (the sooner the better), the UK will become the realm of 66 million censors, each with its own set of silly 'moral' rules. Political correctness dystopia came true, alleluiah! Well he’s never been tried or convicted, so his doc should be shown

She was in ALL the paper's ACTING like a celebrity Pimping her child to an OLD MAN !!!!😠 shame on HER !!!😠😠😠 Bill didn't hide anything or do anything illegal. Why didn't snowflakes bitch about marriages at the time. It's unfair to judge the past with today's PC standards. More power to him if he was able to satisfy his teen brides. I suggest people read his book 'Stone Alone'. I learned to appreciate his bass playing more after he left the band.

Sex workers being illegally targeted for deportations in wake of Brexit vote, campaigners sayExclusive: ‘For migrant workers, everything is compounded – the sexism, the criminalisation and the racism and then the hostile immigration environment’ You mean illegals that are sex workers! Stop lying, it’s embarrassing It's almost as if illegal work attracts illegal migrants... so you could argue that the authorities are going... where more illegals are bound to be? Hmm... 🤔 It's already starting. Jobs are going to disappear after brexit. The government is worried and not telling the people. They are quietly trying to get rid of anyone that doesn't belong in a citizens job. Making room for the future sex workers of England.
