if you think about it when the child abuse laws came in it meant parents couldnt smack their own kids because it was considered child abuse. so if you put the same laws on violence in porn then spanking will be considered violence and become illegal.

I am not so sure about this, as spanking would come within the BBFC's guidelines, which I suspect will be used as a defense when the first cases come up..
Under BBFC rules 'mild' bondage/fetish material is allowed, when it is consensual and does not inflict harm.. Flogging will probably be a no-no (has been prosecuded under OPA in the last couple of years I think), or anything that would leave bruising/welts etc.
I can see this going to the human rights court, as this has to do with peoples lifestyles, and privacy. Two things we are supposed to be guarenteed (although it's a joke in most cases).
