new intro
''While most pages on the wiki use the term *escort*, this page uses the legal term *prostitute*''
==Overview==
PUNTING IS LEGAL. BEING A PROSTITUTE IS LEGAL.
Most paid for sex in the UK as described on UK punting reviews is 100% legal. Some things are illegal though. As a punter, it is wise to reflect on what is legal, what is enforced, and if needed the consequence of being accused of an illegal activity.
The main thing illegal is punting with a prostitute that is underage (under 18), forced/coerced, or trafficked. It is no defence at all if you don't know. The penalty can be life changing. And if you do this, you are a total low-life arsehole bastard.
If you suspect a suspect prostitute, Call crimestoppers.
Otherwise, fill your boots! Enjoy this legal hobby/
==England, Scotland and Wales==
===Introduction===
In England, Wales and Scotland, it is legal for consenting adults to agree to a money-for-sex exchange. However, there are a number of related activities, including soliciting in a public place, kerb crawling, owning or managing a brothel and pimping that are classified as illegal. Furthermore, in England, Wales and in Northern Ireland it is an offence to pay for sex with a prostitute who has been “subjected to force” and this is a strict liability offence (clients can be prosecuted even if they did not know the prostitute was forced).
