Huw Edwards - 6 month suspended sentence (pg 107)

[Blue and true]

Jeremy Hunt is an absolute ….

****.

P.s for everyone saying he's done nothing wrong if he did allegedly pay for images from someone over 16 (17 ), the legal age to send and receive explicit images is 18.

You may be technically correct, but given that the age of consent is 16, the law is an ass. You can consent to a sexual act but not to a photo??

If that was the case, they wouldn’t be backtracking as much as they have done already.

that is the case - the Sun backtracking or otherwise, doesn't change any of that.

May have done nothing wrong but like i said about schofield, no bigger cunts trick you can play on a spouse than to pretend yiure straight when youre gay

It may be more a case of self doubt rather than deception. Plenty of people are confused about their sexuality.

People can talk/discuss more than one thing at a time, Jon Horrocks is guilty of whataboutery and coughing up nonsense.

But they can't though. If you have a 30 minute TV show, you can discuss a limited amount of things and have to make decisions about how long to spend on each one. If you publish a newspaper, you have to decide what the top story is. The world is full of stories deliberately manufactured to limit the amount of time and space given to stories that certain members of the ruling classes would rather see quietly go away. And it's particularly useful if you involve the BBC in the scandal, because they BBC are then basically forced into making it their top story for fear of being accused of bias.

It’s another day of endless coverage on the matter and I still don’t give a shit.

I don't think it's a massive hypocrisy to be honest. A sexual act is temporary. You might regret it, but it's not going to come back and haunt you. A photo or video is something that is potentially permanent, so I think it's fair enough to ask whether a 16 year-old is mature enough to decide whether they want an easily-replicable sexual video of themselves going around.

 

[york away to this!]

Should I now hide my first edition of the next catalogue?

This was from a few days a go before last night's announcement. Just on a side note, how does Derbyshire keep getting away with being incompetent and dropping gaffes. As a "professional" presenter that's the one thing you can't do. She dropped the "c bomb" a few years a go then blamed it on men.

 

[threespires]

I don't know the ins and outs of Huw Edwards private life and in the absence of any public interest I don't need or want to.

What I do know is that The Sun and Rupert Murdoch's ownership and influence over large swathes of the press are a blight on our country.
