North West Lib Dem MEP Chris Davies has blogged about how he’s rejected a nomination as Politician of the Year for the 2010 Erotic Awards. The Flying Golden Penis award will, it would seem, be flying elsewhere this year.
It’s an honour to be considered but it’s not justified. I organised a fringe meeting to give sex workers a voice at last year’s party conference, and more recently I put out a press release defending sex workers from prohibitionist government policies. But it’s not enough.
Whether this spurs Chris to even greater heights to be worthy of the 2011 trophy remains to be seen.
