Are Britain's censorship laws too strict? Reviews

Hitting the floor running, the censorship laws are blatantly de-railed as I would prefer to call it, it's all gone overly PC - "Pointlessly C**p". Improper content is censored in this write-up. - I'll start with my travels in the late 1990's whereby I visited Stockholm for a week of 'fish and blonde banter', but ended up with a few days ...  Read the complete review

I do not think censorship laws in britain are too strict, i dont think they are strict enough. What gives people the right to know every aspect of someones life? Celebrities dont get the privacy they deserve and what right have we to know every tiny detail about them? Whether its splashed in the papers or displayed on the net it is still unfair. I ...  Read the complete review

there is no too strict or not too strict. the fact that there is a standard or a wrong or a right is a matter of opinion . why i say this is because most governments are "democratic". SO. it does not matter what some expert or his nemesis thinks. all that matters is what a society chooses to impose upon themselves. the choice , which ...  Read the complete review

In my personal opinion, some of the censorship in Britain has gone to the pot in Britain. On some occasions we are getting to see more and more on the television where they are relaxing some of the censorship rules, even now down to allowing some of the cartoons from this modern age to have outrageous blood and graphic scenes which in ...  Read the complete review

There are scientific studies to show the harm pornography has and the addiction problems it can lead to. Pornography leads to empty dead interactions. Loving relationships are fulfilling and sex within this context is what is satisfying. Using pornography actually destroys this ability to connect with your partner, creates a dependancy for other ...  Read the complete review

OK, obviously a subject that a lot of people have a view on I would have thought. But here is my two pence worth. Firstly, when looking at Censorship laws you should consider why we have them, namely to try and keep a certain moral code in place in this country. When looking at this country we see moral standards slipping all the ...  Read the complete review

I assume that this category was posted quite a while ago as the amount of censorship has reduced in recent years and certainly with regards to pornography the laws have relaxed and now pretty much the same material can be purchased in this country that used to be only avaialble in Europe. There is still a need to have censorship to ...  Read the complete review

........guard I'd imagine this subject was introduced to the site quite a while ago as I've found this nanny nation of ours dropping it's guard in some regions in the past year. Censorship is a strange thing and one that I can't fully grasp, how did it come to be that a group of people should make a decision for the ...  Read the complete review

I'm going to regret this, I feel, but oh well, here goes everything. I know that you have all heard the many pros and cons for censorship within the United Kingdom, and I'm not going to start listing them all here. Read somone elses opinion if you are looking for a rational debate about the censorship laws. Right now, I'm feeling angry ...  Read the complete review

I used to live in a Third World dictatorship. Yet I found that the newspapers in that dictatorship were surprisingly brave at telling readers the truth. In Britain our media is heavily censored. I have tried posting information about the following on the Channel 4 (UK) news forum ( ...  Read the complete review

Thus far in my life I have largely behaved myself mostly due to my religious upbringing. However, in the last few years I have drifted from my previous beliefs and started to explore areas that were previously ?banned?. A subject that I got talking about with girlfriends recently is porn. This is obviously one BIG NO NO if you are ...  Read the complete review

Censorship laws in this country are, in my opinion, way too strict and should be brought down a touch before this country gets a reputation as being too stuffy (Oh sorry, I forgot, we already had!) I don't think there is any point in trying to hide things such as swearing and violence, because there is so much of it about in real ...  Read the complete review

We may have ben the pioneers of democracy, but public speaking and honest opinions are slowly withering away. This isn't revolutionary, but we should realise the repressions thhat we are faced with every day. We can't listen to the music we want, because it is disjointed by bleeps. We can't watch what we want when we want ...  Read the complete review

I don’t know…. Would be the answer I would give if I was asked if censorship is a good thing. For many reasons To Protect Our Children’s Minds Is a major point in this discussion, but let us look at the current state of affairs. Children 10 years old, getting pregnant. Children 8 years and younger swearing ...  Read the complete review

Late on lunchtime on Sunday 23rd September, the reduced number of tourists in Whitehall watched as a light blue Cherokee Jeep was flagged down by a van load of police officers. Two well-dressed men of Middle Eastern appearance were asked to get out of the jeep and asked for evidence of their identity. One became aggressive, with the result that ...  Read the complete review

I am starting to believe that media censorship is a a good thing. I can't speak for Great Britain, because I have never been there, but I know in my home country the United States, the news media has taken their freedom way too far. There is almost no censorship of the news media in America, and the media has taken advantage of that. ...  Read the complete review

YES THIS IS A CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC, AND YES I AM GOING TO GIVE MY POSSIBLY CONTROVERSIOL OP ANYWAY! My opinion is based on what i personally call logic, others may say it is just silly, i don't particulary worry what you choose to say. I personally think that the age ratings on pornography, whether hard or softcore, should ...  Read the complete review

This was a subject that was often debated throughout my A level Media Studies classes when I was in school. And to be honest, after extensive research I'm not sure that the laws are too limited. The main evidence for restrictions of movies, for examle, tend to be the copy-cat effects. We all know the story behind the James Bulger murder ...  Read the complete review

Yes I really do think that they are too strict on censorship. It isn’t just about we can see or can’t see. I feel that it should be about how old you are, not just if it contains a murder it shouldn’t be showed to little people. There shouldn’t really be limits to what the adults should be shown but as ...  Read the complete review
