    I swear dumbarses like this live in a bubble. Who in their right mind would give their identity documents or bank cards to a porn site? If the UK government enacts this silly legislation it just means UK residents will use non-UK sites.

    Some people really need a reality check.

        You giving them far too much credit. They really are that thick.

        Anyway it’s irrelevant, because as with most of their stupid new laws it’ll never come into effect because they won’t be in office by the time it’s supposed to be enacted. It’s just meant to appeal to their voters, so that they get some donations. They know it’ll never actually happen.

        They’re saying next year for this, which I assume that means about a year away, andthe latest the election can be held is January 2025. But realistically it’s probably going to be in 6 months.

        So either this is going to be around for all of 2 months (assuming that it isn’t delayed), or it’s never going to happen, and I’ll put money on it never happening.
