It would be a national uprising if politicians would ban alcohol because it could get into hands of children.

Sure, but the government is not trying to stop you from giving a 6 year old a beer. That’s a perfectly legal thing to do!

The legal drinking age in the UK is 5, no joke. Starting from the age of 5, we trust parents to be in charge of kids’ alcohol consumption.

Why is it that we can’t trust parents to similarly control their kids access to porn?

Because it's not about the kids nor the porn. It's about control.
