Major increase in sexually transmitted diseases in Ireland

Ireland has an out-of-control sex trafficking problem. Last August, a coalition of 56 organizations urged the Dáil to amend the law to make paying for sex illegal. They presented their case to the Dáil Committee reviewing laws on prostitution: "Current laws have failed and allowed a sex industry to thrive across Ireland; 1,000 women are offered for sex daily through the internet in Ireland; Evidence about children exploited through prostitution appear every year; 90% of women in prostitution want to exit, but feel unable to do so" [From "Turn Off the Red Light ie"]. The statistics in the article above are shocking and probably related to an easy market for prostitution. Does anyone know what action, if any, the government has taken to reduce sex trafficking?

Sorry about typos in previous post, IrishCentral site acting up again. Is there any reason why there is no editing facility for posts on this site?

I don't know why you spend your time posting here, bobby, you never have anything substantive to offer. In this case the statistics are incontrovertible//migrnats from Africa, more particularly the non-Islamic parts of Africa, have an extreemyl highincidence of STDs, especially AIDS. Are you so dumb as to think they leave these diseases behind them at Passport Control when they march thru Arrivals at Dublin Airport?

Does anyone bother to moderate these comments? Seriously? Racists, bigots and mentally disturbed people seem to dominate Irish Central.

the ladies lack the control - its that eve story and with ads to bolster letting it all hang out - get smashed with drink and drugs you're adam's match.

All those immigrants Woundedknee, its all their fault.

Another reason to roost in a traditional Pub!!

Might be useful to mention that several of these diseases, syphilis and AIDS for example, are brought in by foreign migrnats, especially those from Africa. Worth mentioning, but you won't hear it from these sources.
