I’m not arguing about whether prostitution should be legal or not; I’m exposing a flaw in Tim’s argument.

Sweden went down this banning prostitution path and altered very little. Made it more dangerous for the whores as their 'regulars' were made fearful but not so the dangerous men.

That some - even many, or most - prostitutes travel away from home for the reason you state does not mean that none do so for the reason Fiona Mactaggart states. Some are indeed trafficked from town to town. There was a TV documentary on the sex trade recently, which dealt in considerable part with a women who was initially trafficked from the Baltic states to London, and who escaped when she was taken from London to a pub in Wolverhampton, to provide sex to clients there. Fiona Mactaggart, idiot, no doubt. Tim Worstall, committer of logical fallacies, also no doubt. Well, no.
