Subject: RE: BS: Damian Green
Can we please stop saying "legal" porn? The issue is not whether what he was allegedly viewing was legal or not (and as establishment doubt has even been cast on the very existence of the material, who's deciding whether it was legal or not? In agreeing that the porn was legal, you are actually saying that the cop was telling the truth about its existence. Surely if yer cop was peddling totally made-up shit against Green for dark motives he wouldn't have stopped at the halfway house of conceding that it was "legal" - that isn't how you go for the jugular!). The issue is that he was allegedly using porn on his work computer, presumably in work time. At the very least that is cheating his employers. And in many occupations, that is a sacking offence. There's no way I'd have survived as a teacher had porn been found on my school laptop in school.   

We still don't know all the facts. The whistleblowin' cop stated that it was inconceivable that Green had not accessed the porn on the computer. We still don't know his evidence for that assertion.

There's not a lot going on with regard to this saga at present. I suspect that that's exactly how Green wants to keep it. And it's perfectly fair to wonder why that's so.
