Section 5(1)(f) of the Child Trafficking and Pornography Act 1998 (as amended) makes it a criminal offence to knowingly facilitate the production or distribution of sexualised images of children. The problem here isn't the law - it's the political willingnesss to enforce it against X.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

I was a bit mystified as to why various Israel cranks were so heavily committed to badgering the NHS and the answer appears to be “We have to preemptively throw shit and smears at anything that has public trust and support, in case they e.g. start talking about children the IDF shoots at some point”

We have learned nothing. Vast cost overruns are not due to good design. They are due to no design. Also, why is our political system so aggressively mediocre?

Reminder that there are actual armed & active, white 'homegrown' loyalist proscribed terror groups w/ 12,500 members freely operating in N. Ireland. They are so embedded by UK Gov that they receive state funding, high level Government access and effective immunity from investigation & prosecution.

Israel kills innocent Palestinians. Activists spray-paint a plane. Guess which the UK government calls terrorism | Sally Rooney
If Palestine Action becomes a proscribed group, writing these words of support could become a serious offence. It’s vital we fight this alarming attack on free speech, says writer Sally Rooney

Here's something that takes seconds and could have actual positive outcomes. There is an official 'citizen's petition' system in the EU. There's one open at the moment to ban conversion therapy for LGBT+ people in the EU. Ireland can be 1 of the 7 nations needed
