PM’s porn vow
is ‘bizarre’
Prime Minister Boris Johnson has
told
a committee of MPs he supports stricter
curbs on extreme porn,
two years after
dropping
legislation
that would have
introduced significant restrictions.
The Commons Liaison Committee put to
him that the ease of access to extreme, violent
and degrading pornography underpins male
violence against women. He conceded that
‘people are coarsened and degraded by this
stuff ’.
Johnson
acknowledged
that
this
included the need to protect children from
online extreme violent pornography.
