UK MPs stifled by email filter

Members of the British Parliament have had their email filtered for porn, with the result that constituent- and inter-MP email is being censored by the filters.

Paul Tyler, Lib Dem MP, told the BBC that the email filter is "now blocking parts of the Sexual Offences Bill being sent to parliamentary e-mail addresses. It also blocked a Liberal Democrat consultation paper on Censorship…"

As Mr. Tyler says: ""Blocking filth is one thing, gagging political debate is another. Censoring MPs discussions with their staff, colleagues and constituents is totally unacceptable."
