Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 November 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Internet and Video Games.


Internet and Video Games

The important thing about what the hon. Lady has just said is not that the people who read those comments would themselves feel those sentiments and share those ideas, but that they would be affected by them. When some are brutal, we are all brutalised. It is important that we understand the ripple effect of such malevolence on the whole of our society. I restrict myself to ““Strictly Come Dancing”” on a Saturday and avoid all exposure to such things. I feel better for that and want all my children to be like that too.
