On Saturday morning I had the pleasure of being interviewed on @BBCWeekendGMS to discuss my views on the amendments to the Crime and Policing Bill regarding pimping websites and sexual exploitation. You can hear the full interview here: bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
I’m incredibly proud to be part of this APPG which has worked tirelessly this past year to highlight the scourge of commercial sexual exploitation and the damage it inflicts, using a variety of parliamentary tools. Onwards!

Extremely proud to be apart of this APPG. Commercial sexual exploitation is happening in our communities on an industrial level, fuelled by social media and online platforms.

I’m so proud of the work that our cross party group of MPs and Peers has achieved this year. I look forward to making continued progress to protect women and girls.

Last week @APPG_CSE hosted a discussion on how policy makers should respond to sexual exploitation via 'camming' websites. Our thanks to participants @CEASEorgUK, Dr Elly Hanson & @TalitaSverige from Sweden - where this exploitation is now outlawed 👇 euractiv.com/section/tech/n…
Today @APPG_CSE was pleased to hear from @AshReganMSP on her #Unbuyable Bill in @ScotParl The bill would shift the burden of criminality off victims of sexual exploitation & onto perpetrators, driving down demand for trafficking 👏 @tracygilbert72 @katrinamurray71 @kittysull1
📢 Ask your MSPs to back the Unbuyable Bill! @AshReganMSP has introduced a bill to criminalise paying for sex while decriminalising & supporting victims of sexual exploitation. Because sexual consent is #unbuyable Email your MSPs 👉 amodelforscotland.org/take-action Ash on the bill ⬇️

“Legislation has existed for many years to protect the public from violent and abusive pornographic content offline, but online the law has not kept pace" - Natasha Kaplinsky Exactly. This is why @APPG_CSE is calling for stronger protections online theguardian.com/society/2025/j…
Thank you to @Jess4Lowestoft @ToniaAntoniazzi @APPG_CSE @McGlynnClare and many others who've we've had the honour of campaigning on this with. This is great news! 👏
Absolutely delighted that the Government Minister just confirmed that they will bring an amendment to criminalise non fatal strangulation in online pornography when the Bill reaches the House of Lords. Thanks to everyone who supported our campaign! @CEASEorgUK @barnardos
Good to see ministerial recognition of the need to tackle demand for commercial sexual exploitation and support victims. 👉 Read the full debate of @ToniaAntoniazzi's amendments to the Crime & Policing Bill hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2025-0…

Today @Jess4Lowestoft spoke about the need for Gov to adopt her amendments combatting online pornography harms. "Women and girls are paying the price of both an industry that seeks to profit from the most violent kinds of content, as well as laws that are not fit for purpose."
