Quote:British prostitute takes client to court after he refuses to pay
LONDON (AFP) - A British prostitute reportedly took a client to court after he admitted he could not afford to pay her after sex.
Tracy Harper complained to police after unemployed Matthew Bushell, 33, told her he could not afford the 720 pounds (1,000 euros, 1,400 dollars) he owed her for their six-hour liaison, the northwest England regional daily the Liverpool Echo reported.
Bushell from Southport, near Liverpool, was bankrupt and owed 15,000 pounds from using phone sex lines and escort girls, the evening newspaper added in its court report from the town.
He pleaded guilty to dishonestly obtaining sexual services and was made subject to a two-year supervision order. Magistrates also ordered him to pay 65 pounds in court costs at a hearing on Monday.
No compensation order was made for Harper, from Bradford, northern England.

Quite right too. He's a disgrace. Two years supervision is letting him off lightly in my opinion. I hope it works.
Good Grief, whats next? Are Johns going to start suing their prostitutes for not making enough money, slacken on the job?
What are the laws in England on prostutution?
I hope they dont make it too hard-on him.
I hope they do.
I'm ashamed to be associated with taking advantage of hard working girls in this gratuitous fashion. It's subversive.
First rule.
Get the money up front.
No checks, cash.

Yeah no doubt...lol, then us biggun's would charge by the poundage, not the hour...we'd make more money that way!
I mean goddamn, can you imagine staying with a guy for 6 freaking HOURS and not have gotten anything up front?
Very poor business.
Yep..makes her a dumbass...lol
I thought all prostitutes got the dough up front. Live and learn.
So prostitution is legal in England?

Just the ones that you go to, Edgar.
I say. Steady on old chap. Ed's a bit sensitive.
I was a sailor. I know about these things.
I wouldn't argue with a sailor on matters like this.
It's pretty common for many of one's shipmates to mingle that way, particularly in certain ports where it's legal.
Stumble It!
