    No, its worse. I remember seeing an obese women on the “page 3” were tabloids used to put nude women, with the threat that this is what it will look like, if labour gets elected. I cannot find it anymore. I found a similar trope from 2010 though.

    So yes, in the UK of that time “if you vote the wrong party, we will take your softporn from the paper” was a political argument accepted in society.
