Sex workers among big losers at Grand National as they're forced to offer discount rides
Hookers were among the biggest losers at this year’s Grand National as they were forced to offer punters cost-of-living rate rides.
Escorts working the usually profitable event failed to romp home with their usual winnings as they have had to slash rates by more than 500% to attract hard-up clients.
Others even offered their services free as long as they could be guaranteed 20% of winnings from their partners – saying they would only have sex once they had the cut in their hands.
An escort source told us: “The oldest profession in the world is being hit hard, and so they didn’t lose out on one of the biggest weekends of business in the year, girls cut prices massively.“They have seen how the cost of living crisis has reduced their clientele, and escorting prices at this year’s National have had to be dropped by up to four times so punters would still shell out for a girl.”
The insider also warned cutting rates was a “sad state of affairs” and dangerous for some girls.
They added: “It may sound good for punters, but it’s a sad state of affairs.
“These girls are turning to sex work to cover their basics, and they weren’t getting the business they needed at their old rates due to today’s cost of living crunch hitting everyone, so they’re having to offer themselves for practically nothing to do any business.
“By the time their transport and time is taken out, these girls aren’t doing much better than minimum wage.
“It means they’re also accepting potentially dangerous clients they’d have previously been able to turn down.
“There are of course some who will have get lucky with rich men winning big, but that’s not really the norm in the world of sex work now.”
One website boasting of offering the “finest fillies” around Aintree had girls listed at £120 for a half-day’s service – which would have cost at least £650 around 2018.
The same year, some vice girls claimed to have raked in up to £5,000 after multiple rolls in the hay on the same day.
