Crime and Policing BillContribution
There is a vast, ghastly industry where children, generally in the Far East or South America, are put in a room with a camera, and people—I would call them perverts—in another country pay to see them sexually abused. I am ashamed to say that this country is the third-largest consumer of this stuff. Men who indulge in viewing child sexual abuse material are two and a half times more likely to commit child abuse themselves and, of course, children might view it online.
