That is good to hear.

Good to see that the BBC news is highlighting the fact that under 18's who send explicit photos of themselves, even to their partners, leave themselves open to being charged with creating and distributing indecent images of children.

So you have a married couple who are both 17 for instance and are separated due to work decide to send each other a nude shot and they will be prosecuted ?

The looneys are indeed running the asylum.

Sexually explicit pictures of under 18's are not permitted under any circumstances.

It is no longer possible for those under 18 to get married.

That did not become law until the end of Feb 2023, so its perfectly possible for a couple married before then to still be under 18.

Also, it only applies to England and Wales, the age in Scotland is still 16, as is Northern Ireland.

If you or your partner is 16 or 17 years old and either of you lives in England or Wales, you can get married in Scotland.
However, this marriage will not be legally recognised in England and Wales.

Its also perfectly legal for a couple to have sex under the age of 18, so still complete nonsense that they cant take nude pictures of each other.

Colin Graves, the former chairman of Yorkshire County Cricket Club, who described racism as 'banter' is set to take over the club.

Azeem Rafiq, a former player and whistleblower about his experience of racist behaviour woke up this morning to many racist remarks on his social media. This is now being dealt with.

In a statement released on Thursday, he added: "I apologise personally and unreservedly to anyone who experienced any form of racism at Yorkshire County Cricket Club.

"Discrimination or abuse based on race, ethnicity or any other protected characteristic is not and never will be acceptable."

Graves will be joined on the board by former Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) president Phillip Hodson, Sanjay Patel, who recently left his post as managing director of The Hundred, and Sanjeev Gandhi, previously a non-executive director of the ECB.

I don't know why you would think that racism is something that I would enjoy. Please explain exactly what you mean by this remark.

Please explain why you believe that I always get enjoyment when discussing racism as opposed to other forms of discriminatory behaviour.

I dont think you are happy about racism at all every right minded person should be fully against it, I posted that because you seem to have an agenda over anything relating to the Online Safety Bill and you seem all too happy to tell us all about it.

Thanks for explaining. It's a subject I'm interested in amongst other things. I contribute to a thread about Virgin Media TV, do you class that as an 'agenda' too?

Anyway, we aren't here to discuss me- play the ball not the man.
