More details from petition creator
In 1972 the late Lord Denning, former Master of the Rolls, said that the law against pornography had misfired: He said: "Much that is obscene has escaped the reach of the law". The pornography industry has exploited to the full a law that is inherently flawed and has failed to fulfil the intention of Parliament in the 1959 Act to strengthen the criminal law. It has had the opposite effect.
