If it not Fifty Shades of Grey, then it is the lionisation of Simon Walsh, an utterly unrepentant practitioner of the vilest perversions, although I do not doubt that his prosecution was related to his work in rooting out police corruption.
The question is not why he was prosecuted, but why other people are not, and how Walsh's material can possibly have been within the law. In that case, change the law.
Max Mosley even turns up on Question Time and the like. Sadomasochism is being normalised. Indeed, to a very considerable extent, it already has been. Did you ask for this? Were you ever so much as asked about it? Have we really sunk this low? Yes, we have.
To what depths will we sink next? Again, that is the wrong question. Rather, what are we doing to ensure that we do not sink any further, but instead begin the long climb back to the clean, fresh air of decency?
