Rochdale Labour MP - Simon Danczuk in Sex-Texts Row

The forty nine year old MP for Rochdale has apologised for sending a seventeen year old girl sex-texts.
He said he sent them while drunk and was "horny and alone" and wanted to "spank" her.

The girl, Sophena Houlihan, runs a fetish website and is a dominatrix.

The row continues while the MP has been suspended from the Labour Party.

According to the police who had a look at everything there was no offence committed.
She was 17 at the time and now is 18.
They can basically do what they want with each other if its consensual.
After all, she runs a fetish website so can hardly be described as a prude :lol:
What a waste of media attention!

The age of consent in the UK is 16 and she was nearly 18!
The problem is he is a member of parliament and they have to be free from any sort of gossip.
To me, this story is nothing, but to the Labour Party and the people in his constituency, it might be.
She has a "fetish" website so can't be classed as an angel.
How did this story get out?
I think we all know that somebody is trying to make money out of it all.
David Bowie has died - what more can I say :cry:

He should but a high profile job such as an MP has is always going to cause a media storm if an older man dares to try it on with a girl over the age of consent :lol:
Elvis Presley was with Priscilla when she was 14, so its no big deal.
I suppose its only an age thing and what the age of consent is in any particular country.
In the UK its 16 but in Austria, Germany, Portugal and Italy it is 14.

Simon Danczuk could be doing what most men would do but he should have resisted more than most men because of his position.
I don't care much about this story.
It doesn't move me one way or another.
