UK is more understand on the whole I believe, becca - but I think that the new UK pressure is also a kickback from the US 2257. You know how pally bush and blair are. Peace and Rapture
New?? The Profumo affair was in 1963....you are going to really have to stretch to blame today's politicians for British attitudes about S&M.

....Keeler told the court: "We were like brother and sister. My life really used to revolve around Stephen. He had full control of my mind. I used to do more or less everything that he said. I thought I could never stand on my feet unless he was there and supporting me mentally." Ward courted the prominent and the powerful, and made friends easily - in fact, Roger Hollis, the then head of MI5, was said to be a frequent visitor to his flat.
Ward was also known for introducing women to men and there are lurid stories told of parties held at his home, involving two-way mirrors, sado-masochism and orgies.
The most infamous tale is that of the "man in the mask", a high-ranking member of the establishment, who served guests at Ward's dinner parties, naked, except for a mask and who ate his dinner from a dog bowl. Despite rumours he was a Cabinet minister, he has never been identified.
