    I love the irony about 'consumer choice' and then wanting to put blocks on ISP.

    Also lol about the porn not accepted on mobiles. Just lol.

    She's been banging on about this from the second she was elected. Without govt support - which she has not and will not get - she can go whistle. Interesting (slightly anyway) that she's moved from pretending her views are not anti-porn to now pretty openly admitting that they are.

    Yep. It's noticable that although her campaign is apparently about adult content (obviously a popular draw for old tories) her quotes sound more like they're about ensuring everything on the net is privatised and marketable.

    She's from Nailsea. I believe this explains her stupidity.
  8. frogwoman come with us, see this world burn down

    thing is some of these tories are the type of people who want to be able to sell crack in privatised booths in the kids playground, i doubt they'll take too kindly to someone wanting to regulate porn!
  9. trevhagl still hatin' Thatcher

    banning Frankie vaughan, now THAT would be a vote winner hahahah back to the Victorian era you mental
  10. 2hats these hands were made for making

    MP in 'half-arsed, fuckwitted statement about Internet' shocker.

    Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt, etc.
  11. elbows WoeTimer

    Spent a while staring at the new generation of MPs that lurk in the commons. Its not looking good, if we are entering an era when the system is going to collapse then picked a fine bunch to take over the wheel at just the moment the clown-car falls apart. At this rate the term consumer choice will one day be applied to forms of internment.

    She must know, surely, that this is never going to happen. I appreciate that she's guaranteed an appearance forever whenever Today has a few minutes to fill and the internet is in the news, but wouldn't you want more out of life? Poverty of aspiration :(

    She's been going on about this for some time now. I honestly just don't think she likes the sex industry.

    She's just philandering to the people who write into Points of View.
  14. Firky In Rainbows

    All tories are sexual deviants and are all into auto-erotic asphyxiation.
  15. krink I'll do it this afternoon

    I've been emailing Theresa May all day, adding this idiot to this cc list wouldn't be too much of a stretch:)

  20. savoloysam Love you, Schlong time.

    But TV (providers) don't block pornography by default do they?
  21. Ax^ Silly Rabbit

    No the bastards just try to make you pay for it

    *shakes fist at sky*

    :mad:
  22. GarfieldLeChat fucking awesome but wrong

    then she needs to resign immediately it's no longer acceptable to be in a position of power and not understand how it works...

    in any circumstances... frankly these Luddites should be driven with flaming torches and pitch forks from their homes and dragged behind carts as suits their medieval outlook on the modern world...

    So, regulate it like TV, BBC News from 10am to 11am, Urban75 from 11am to 12am, ... etc

    Does not seem to make much sense to me!!

    Just when you thought the tories couldn't possibly demonstrate to any greater levels just how out of touch with reality they are, along comes another one to prove just how fucking wrong you could be... :facepalm:
