REVENGE PORNOGRAPHY

Early day motion 192, tabled 30 June 2014 by Julian Huppert (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 36 members.

That this House is deeply concerned at the growth of revenge porn, which typically sees individuals publishing online explicit and intimate photographs and videos of ex-partners; notes that whilst the images are often taken with full consent, their dissemination is not; further notes that the dissemination of these images have ruined lives, destroyed careers and caused untold psychological damage; understands that currently there is no specific legislation to deal with the problem; and urges the Government to bring forward legislative proposals to criminally sanction individuals who breach the privacy of others through these vengeful acts.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 15, Labour 12, Conservative 5, Independent 2, Alliance 1, DUP 1.
