The Power of the Paedos - another high profile case hits the 'never happened' wall?

[David Guyatt]

Cameron has announced a "crackdown" on "web porn" today.

Here's an expert response from the former head of the UK's child abuse investigation unit, stressing that that most paedophiles do not share images of child abuse via google style searches but rather via peer to peer communication.

Peer to peer communication can be policed but it requires specialist teams of child abuse investigators with IT expertise and search warrants.

Oh yeah, and it costs money.

Paedophiles will 'laugh at' web porn crackdown, says ex police chief
New rules: The Prime Minister said he wants Britain to be the best place to raise a family
........

But challenged whether Page Three-style images of topless women should be banned from newspapers, he refused, saying: "It's an issue of personal choice whether people buy a newspaper or not."

Rather than control the internet, an impossible and ridiculous task, it is better if free internet filters can be provided to those that request them. Much cheaper and leaves every one else in peace.

If Cameron wants Britain to be the best place to raise a family he needs to abolish the Tories, arrest his friends the bankers, abolish monetarism, fully fund the NHS and public education and stop using homes as casino chips and promoting landlordism. Internet pornography is the least of it. And he doesn't want to deal with pornography on paper just the internet? WTF? There is a choice in both as the consumer.

But using filters would hinder the thin edge of the wedge strategy to control the internet per se. Cameron doesn't give a flying took about internet porn - if he did care about these things a former Conservative Home Secretary would be banged up by now....
