Videos shared online falsely claim Keir Starmer banned New York mayor Zohran Mamdani from the UK, after Mr Mamdani supposedly said the UK had “lost its moral compass” at an event they both attended.
But no such event happened, and he hasn’t been banned.

New open access article out on @EthicsWelfare! I compare the anti-trafficking approaches to domestic work and sex work in the Philippines and argue that the distinction is flawed and harmful. Grateful to the editors and reviewers for all their feedback :)
