A cross-party group of British lawmakers led by Indian-origin lawmaker Keith Vaz has called on the UK government to decriminalise sex work and prostitution, first time in decades that Parliament has considered the "polarising" subject.

Amnesty International was going through a fraught vote today on whether the human rights organisation should back decriminalising prostitution, following a heated debate on the divisive issue.
