E-mail vetting blocks MPs’ sex debate:
A new e-mail vetting system at the House of Commons is stifling debate among MPs over serious parliamentary business such as the Sexual Offences Bill, it is claimed.
The system was introduced last month after MPs complained about getting inundated with pornographic and rude e-mails.
officialMore than 900 e-mails were blocked in its first week, and the new system is now proving too restrictive and causing “chaos”, according to one MP.
