No that's exactly what we need, people telling others on a social media site and spreading the petition. It needs to go far and beyond this forum. If the pipe and slippers brigade form there own petition then it can't be any worse then what we have to endure already can it.

I agree, we need more and more people to no about our plight, and the more the word gets out, the more the word will spread. At the end of the day we need to expose Ofcom and expose them publicly. The last thing a government regulator wants is to feel the heat in the public eye, and I can guarantee that as soon as Ofcom starts feeling the pressure, they'll soon start to shake.

Go for it.
I know people who tested the water in several family orientated sites, and there was no interest in even modest anti-porn measures. Responses fell into 3 categories, upset that hubby wasnt performing in bed but was watching porn (mostly online), cost, and a few its-degrading-to-performers comments. Its always possible a rabble rousing newspaper will pick it up, but thats not all bad because all the other papers would love to make them look petty minded prudes.
Besides the paper in question is dead scared that media rules will be tightened up and they will be banned from reporting the investigative stories the do now.

Well my question to everyone is: Is Ofcom untouchable? It just appears to me that anything we suggest seems to come to a dead end? Ofcom to me seems like there are some sort of a super power?
I still feel there must be a way to get something sorted, but the more I think of things the more I end up scratching my head trying to figure out what to do

Untouchable? Certainly seems that way. And for what? What do they (Ofcon) think they are protecting us from?
I remember seeing hardcore sex on the tele out in France over 20 years ago. How has that affected French children? Not at all, I suspect.
All over Europe full-on sex on TV is available if you want it. Only in sad, repressed Britain and Ireland are you subjected to this dictatorship which knows what's best for us.

I agree, it seems in Europe they have hardcore sex on there equivalent freeview unencrypted channels,especially Germany, Belgium, Holland and the Scandinavian countries, yet prudish little britain has to be told what we can and cannot watch by some outdated government regulator which is costing the government millions of pounds on needless regulation?
It still amazes me in the 21st century that we are still having these issues in this country? i tell you its beyond me, it really is

political parties never seem to bring this to peoples attention when generating voters or when issuing their manifesto"s, there are several ways in which consenting adults can protect their children from what the deem unfit so why does the government still insist on a group of people to decide what an 60 million adults can view on the tv ,were not in dubai or the arab emerates where religion bans it but a supposedly free democratic country ,this is not a free country after all is it????????

Lol free country no it bloody well isn't, like you said there are 60million people living in this country,yet one poxy government regulator has the right to tell us what we can watch and what content is is allowed to showed
The way Ofcom are carrying on, will be ending up living in a socialist
society.

Or a fascist dictatorship? Two sides of the same coin, perhaps?
