The Sun said it was internet content not games. He wanted to have software which was guaranteed to block all adult material on the internet. Obviously this is even less achievable. Just PR gubbins after the mould of recent Aussie rants.

Another load of old bollocks, but hey you lot better worry about this one because it concerns you.

When I rant about other losses of freedoms you justify it, because it doesnt effect you directly.

Hence laws are brought in, divide and rule.

I don't really see any problem if that article linked is accurate. Doesn't say he wants to ban violent video games, simply stop them being advertised and sold to youngsters. Nowt wrong with that - infact I think parents need more information about the games they're buying for their little sprogs. Perhaps if they knew not all games were suitable for children anymore they'd take more time to avoid the inappropriate ones. Hopefully then we'd see less angry mothers calling for violent games to be banned.

Oh thatll work well.

Still it cant be any more of a fuckup than the kiddie porn filter that can trivially be used to find kiddie porn.
