The Tories gave us gay marriage so now they have to appeal to the right-wing, hypocrtical nut jobs who don't live in the real world.

See: pornography.

Not really, more his back benchers.

Cameron is actually polling pretty well amongst the public, the Tories have dropped a lot of unpopular policies and passed a lot of popular ones.

Unfortunately his party is comprised of rich old men who don't have a fucking clue about the world, so after alienating them with sensible progressive policies and laws he now has to play the game and pander to them by offering insane, never going to work in a million year ideas like this porn thing.

If he genuinely believes he can stop teenagers from getting their hands on porn he's off his rocker.

I also can't wait until the list of people who opt-in to being able to view 'adult content' is left on a train and The Sun and Daily Mail has a field day calling them all perverts, right beside a picture of some bird with her tits out

No ones saying that stopping young children from watching online pornography isn't sensible.

Just that, 1. The government shouldn't try and parent everyones kids and 2. An ISP level block is the fucking stupidest thing to do, it takes anyone with google literally 2 seconds to goolge 'how to get around porn block' and boom it's done.

Oh and it's also censorship to boot.

Yeah, I agree.

It's also utterly hypocritical how many adults access porn and yet try their hardest to black their kids out from such content. Is it okay to be "corroded" (quoted by Cameron himself) once you hit twenty or so? Or maybe once you've fucked someone for the first time? Would they even know how to do it?

I'm more concerned about the justification - that two child killers once watched porn.

Porn doesn't "corrode childhood" any more than extreme violence does, and between TV, Youtube and video games there's certainly no shortage of that in your typical child's life.

I think it's hilarious - "legal" pornography as a gateway to child abuse images.

That's how they introduced Internet blocking in France: a law to block every pedopornographic site so that "people don't run into horrible child porn"

But people don't run into child porn, you have to look for it, and the people who look for it use private boards and encrypted P2P networks.

It's all about setting a legal precedent: leave it to an administrative entity -not a judge- to decide what sites to block.

Shit like that just innefective, costly and will lead to many clean websites to be unaivalable due to over-blocking.

I don't understand how anyone thinks it's justified. Responsible parents should use software to filter search results and supervise young teenagers access to the internet if they don't want them to see online porn. Banning porn for the enitre country (and it is a ban how many people are honestly going to ring up their ISP and ask for their porn back?) because you are a shitty parent is ridiculous. It's like calling for a trampoline ban because you're little darling broke his leg on one.

I'm more annoyed that the BBC is apparently not allowing views that dissent with this draconian bollocks onto air, all I've seen is bollocks from 'do whatever the fuck you want as long as you protect the children' groups and nothing from anyone that will say a) that it won't work and b) that it's not the governments job.

Can't wait till this ignorant bunch of baby boomer cunts die off.

Anyway, the only hope is that the Tories u-turn on this like they have with their other ridiculous ideas once they actually did some consultation.

This will also mean that more parents will allow their children on the internet unsupervised seeing as they'll think they're perfectly safe. And once teenagers go down the route of using Tor and proxies, they'll be stumbling into the 'deep web' which is a lot more dangerous than just porn

Yeah, but then they'll probably pass a law banning Tor as a 'hacking tool'. And lock up anyone that bypasses their shitty little filter.

They tried to introduce it over here. Died out after some guy got passed the wall in some ridiculously short time and the list of sites that would be blocked got leaked.

A woman has been fined after bringing her horse into a McDonald's restaurant in the UK.

The woman - who has not been named by police - brought the animal into the restaurant in Greater Manchester on Saturday (July 20) after being refused service at the drive-through, BBC News reports.

McDonald's explained that it does not serve drive-through customers who are on horseback.

The woman then led the horse into the Bury New Road restaurant ,where it "ended up doing [its] business on the floor".

Police arrived on the scene and issued the woman with a fixed penalty notice.

A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said: "The sight and smell of this caused obvious distress and upset to customers trying to eat, as well as staff members.


Maybe the horse just wanted a big mac

I didn't watch internet porn, but by the age of 14, I was in a same sex relationship which lasted for years and years. What corroded my childhood? Oh right, yeah. Video games and punk music. Ok.

Parents took the dog with them to our summer house. Feels weird as fuck being completely home alone for the first time in ages. It's just too quiet.

Apparently today is the hottest day for seven years in Britain, it's seemed considerably cooler to me.
