Accrington Web - View Single Post - More Porn and Gambling on TV;thanks New Labour!

I noticed in the last year that a new soft porn channel called Babestation is now available from midnight free on all Digital boxes, which from April all TV users will have to have in order to get TV with the digital change over. There are I think 4 channels with this on and each one has different girls basically taking part in a "peep show!"

Thing is it's on all night and is free which means kids can watch it if they have TV or computer in their bedroom and it shows near naked girls simulating sex and then offers links to hardcore porn! I just think this is going to be watched by children in their bedrooms - if so is that right! I think at least about 1 year ago this porn was not shown free and any interested party had to pay by credit card to have a "peep!"

Simultaneously gambling which has been on our TV's a lot longer since Tony Blair changed the law to allow it - Bingo and gambling is freely advertised on TV.

So new labour have encouraged these 2 "products" onto TV that weren't there before!

I'm not happy about it. Because both these "products" are just as addictive and damaging to many people in the same way as drugs may be to some!
