Some various research on porn and Scotland.

From the CC on the email I was sent:

Ann Oxley. Has been involved in Scottish justice since at least 2002.

Gery McLaughlin. Has been had his name attached toreducing assault on public workers and weapons.

Patrick Down. Has had his name attached to both prostitution and dog fouling. Here he is taking consultation from The Scottish Women Against Pornography.

Philip Lamont. Has had his name attached to justice reform.

Interesting file about Scottish Executive staff downloading porn. However, most people don't think porn is a problem on the internet.

Organised crime seems to be linked to pornography (esp. exteme pornography and child pornography) in Scotland. Kenny MacAskill seems to feel quite strongly on the link. This guy also seems to agree in (of all places) the Sun, but the article doesn't have his name. (Any clue?)

Here, lap dancers in Edinburgh and Glasgow draw a distinction between prostitution and lap dancing. They say they are not involved with pornography, either.

This study of the effects of domestic violence advertising assumes a connection between pornography and exploitation of women, likening it to prostitution and rape.

Excellent study of the Adult Entertainment Industry in Scotland. I especially like some of the statements regarding the difference between public and private space, the distinction between explicit and exploitative, the reasons why lap dancers started performing, Violate's comments, some of the public's comments which are more closely related to alcohol than sex, etc.

Note the fact that the Scottish Women Against Pornography's page hasn't been updated in over a year, and also the fact that they contributed to the downfall of a Scottish BBB: Festival Erotique in 2005.
