Please contact your MP to insist that censoring of the Internet is press censorship – therefore the Bill should contain no uncontrolled power to block access to websites. No other western country does this. Moreover, the British Board of Film Classification is answerable to no-one but itself, and thus should not be entrusted with legal power. British people deserve freedom of expression.

Philosophy
We felt that the world has generally become more accepting
of erotic art, film, writing etc., but
the people selling sexual services and stripping
are becoming increasingly vilified.
Strip clubs have been closed down and
sex workers described as shameful or victims.
It seems important to focus on these people who are,
in fact, doing great work in bringing happiness, inspiration
and a sexual education to many people
who need and enjoy them, including disabled people.
Labour rights for sex workers and strippers are of highest priority and we acknowledge those
working towards these goals.
Restricting the Awards to sex work and stripping
has meant that our events have become warmer
and more focused.
The audience truly care about these stars getting the praise they deserve.
