Meu mandato รฉ global, o mundo estรก literalmente em chamas, afetando com isso mulheres e meninas.
4/6 A Arรกbia Saudita contribui significativamente para a ONU como um todo, incluindo o ACNUDH. A ONU agora tambรฉm รฉ โanti-transโ o โanti - dereitos humanosโ?
3/6 Felizmente, todas as minhas posiรงรตes estรฃo registradas e todos podem ouvir e ler por si mesmos. Quanto ao doador que forneceu fundos para o meu mandato, permitindo que eu pudesse realizar meu trabalho ao redor do mundo:
2/6 Elas continuam obsessivamente me difamando e espalhando informaรงรตes falsas sobre meu trabalho e minhas posiรงรตes.
1/6 Certas organizaรงรตes continuam histรฉricas com o fato de eu ter conseguido realizar uma visita acadรชmica oficial ao #Brasil, apesar de todos os seus esforรงos (bem-sucedidos atรฉ entรฃo) para que eu nunca pusesse os pรฉs no Brasil.

While the bill did not pass, the fact that she got as far as she got and that so many MSPs voted for it is an achievement. It is no longer a taboo to advocate for an abolitionist framework.
I commend Ash Regan MSP on her impressive campaign to pass a human rights centered and evidence based bill to address demand for sexual acts and better protect the women and girls that are victims of #prostitution.
