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).
either way i think it needs clear guidelines, cos if it just "all violence" then spanking etc dont stand a chance, wither its consensual or not.

personally i think it will go through with all violence as the majority of the british public will just hear "ban violence in porn" and support it thinking the worst. and the MP's are already supporting it.

but the police have bigger things to deal with like cp etc so i dont think its gonna have major police investigations after it becomes law. i think it will become a case by case law.
