Unusual protest

When there is any kind of protest against the government one thing is for sure the activist members of the socialist worker will be there, placards in hand and selling their paper ‘The Socialist Worker’.
There is going to be a mass ‘face-sitting’ protest outside the Houses of Parliament tomorrow, Friday 12th in protest against new porn censorship laws. Around 500 demonstrators are expected to be descending on Westminster and I was just wondering if the socialist workers professional protesters would be there.
The ‘face-sitting’ and fake sex protest is against the new law on pornographic content on film and magazines. Some of the reported entertainment will include a ‘Sex Factor’ game show, an attempt to break the ‘face-sitting’ world record, is that even in the Guinness Book of Records I just hope the weather is ok. It would be fun to see how the media handle this protest if they do.
The Audiovisual Media Services Regulations 2014 banned a number of legal acts from UK pornography including spanking, female ejaculation and humiliation on 1 December on the grounds they could be dangerous and might encourage home ‘re-enactments’
.
The 2013 Sex Worker of the Year and political campaigner Charlotte Rose who recently stood as an independent candidate in the Rochester and Strood by-election throw her ten penneth into the debate.
‘Personal liberty is what we are fighting for on Friday which no one has the right to take away from somebody else.’
Myles Jackman, a renowned obscenity lawyer, agrees.
‘Pornography is the canary in the coal mine of free speech: it is the first freedom to die. If this assault on liberty is allowed to go unchallenged, other freedoms will fall as a consequence.
