The Issue

10% of pre-teen kids addicted to Porn (NSPCC)
90% of mainstream Porn shows Violence against Women
90% Women in Prostitution want to Get Out

 

We call on:

Newspaper Editors to stop making money by advertising porn and prostitution

The ASA to stop allowing ads for porn, sex chat and prostitution in our newspapers or on non-restricted sites on line.

Our MPs to take measures to ensure The Sport is sold on the top shelf only and take action on the relentless objectification of women and girls by the British media and popular culture which flies in the face of all policies on reducing violence against women and girls and presents a serious issue of child protection. #HarveyWeinstein

Retail Regulators like the NFRN (National Federation of Newsagents) to issue new guidelines to retailers to sell The Sport on the top shelf only.

 

The Metropolitan Police to re-launch their initiative calling on all newspapers to stop publishing sex/porn ads because of the harm of these industries and their inextricable links with coercion and trafficking. In addition to view this as a matter of child protection.

 

The London Mayor and Transport for London to tell ES and METRO to stop advertising sex chat and prostitution or lose their huge distribution network on London's Transport system.

 

George Osborn of The ES to stop promoting Sex Chat and 'Chat or Date' (aka prostitution).

 

David Sullivan, owner of both The Sport and West Ham Football Club – to promote family sport (football) not women as sport (The Sport).
