Government demands back 14,080 euros corona premium from Hot Marijke: “This is discrimination against prostitutes”

Hot Marijke (37) is hot with anger. Flanders’ most famous prostitute must pay back her corona premiums, she told HLN. All together 14,080 euros, plus a fine. “In March 2020, the police forced me to stop working. Now they say that I wrongly asked for a premium.” Why does the government do that? And why does it make a difference if she had offered her services in… the basket of a hot air balloon? Tax expert Michel Maus: “The government is making a bizarre distinction here.”
