private member's bill in Parliament England, to minimum age for marriage from 16 to 18

[Patiently waiting for Truth]

https://sputniknews.com/uk/202005221079386943-uk-ministry-of-justice-has-open-mind-on-raising-minimum-age-to-18-to-stop-child-marriages/

I thought this article was interesting, particularly as @Arauna seems to say that the world and all it's governments are totally immoral and that all schools and colleges teach immorality etc .........

Here in the UK a politician is trying to have the legal age of marraige raised from 16 to 18, to stop child marraiges. 

Conservative MP Pauline Latham is seeking to pass a bill which would “revoke parental…consent which permits the marriage…of a child and to criminalise child marriage…under the age of 18.”

I just thought it gives a bit of balance to the usual JW cry of 'the world is wicked' 'all non JWs are wicked' etc....  I do like a bit of balance. 

The article is dated 22nd May and I have no idea of the outcome, but it's nice to read about a politician that is trying to do something positive to held young people.

Thanks for article..... but there is  no balance!

The investigations into child marriage led them to tabling this bill to try to stop child marriages. There are a few legislators who do care (mostly women) but the majority do not. The rape gangs in UK are still operating and still swept under the carpet.

Most people who try to expose the gangs (report about it) are targeted by police and the establishment because one may not say anything about "the religion of peace" who are the major perpetrators of this crime because it is ok to rape "kufaar" (unbelievers). It is now against the law (hate-speech, even if they are perpetrators) in UK and one could face a prison sentence of up to 6 years for hate-speech (if I remember correctly - it changed from 2 to 6 years).

What they do NOT say in the article you cite, is that the religion of peace does not marry in UK courts. (It is rare- because the wife has more rights under UK law and can inherit more from her husband, should he die, than under Sharia law). Sharia favours men.

So they do religious marriage or take them to Pakistan to get married at young age  .....and then wait until she is of age for the man to immigrate legally to Britain on marriage Visa.  This was a major industry before..... I do not know which immigration laws have been changed in the past few years because I know they have been trying to curb this by immigration legislation. I have not taken the time of late to look at it.

Yes, the more I learn about the top echelons of society and the sexual antics they get up to with children ( and the level of suppression), the more I realize how wicked the world has become. I have listened to a few hair raising stories of retired police who were told to "stop" investigating" in UK........ coming from higher up in the hierarchy who get pressure from even higher up in government. This was, and is  happening in USA too. One investigator from Florida has fled to Russia because his life was in danger. Journalists and police have turned up dead in USA. Shot or convenient suicide.

The Epstein debacle has also been covered up with his very 'convenient' suicide of which the circumstances have just been accepted by the public at large. No lingering questions asked. No-one has been brought to justice which proves the system is  covering up. There is no longer justice for the poor and underpriviledged..... just like in Israel before the exile.

 The prosecutors who covered up for Epstein and colluded to cover up the 37 cases of child trafficking in 2007, have DA positions at present - their "clean" standing is not tarnished because the press do not write about it. Epstein turned out to be an CIA asset. 

The new trafficking cases were closed at his ''suicide' and the "madam" who pulled in all the young kids for his operations, is still living in luxury and free.  All the porn material with high society men ( videos) which the Federal police raided from his home after his death, is in their fed possession.  NO INDICTMENTS up till now. I am waiting...... most probably some lowly person will be made an example of....... but the news is not asking what has happened to the videos.  

My sense of justice is outraged by this but I leave it in the hands of Jehovah...... their fall will be great.

One piece of good news.... it seems that some of the supply chains were broken by Corona lock down.....due to transport restrictions...... but this crime will grow even faster when a lot of people do not have work. The criminally inclined will have a ' job'. ..... and money.

@4Jah2me This is somewhat old information, but relevant. There are indeed young brides, children brides in both the US and the EU, however, in the EU, involving the UK, it is FAR worse. Reasons I cannot point out because as I said to everyone here before, it is disturbing, as well as grime to speak of things of what is taking place on the underground. It is the reason as to WHY we must educate ALL communities to protect children, going about things the right way vs. going about things either the wrong way and or the tragic way.

To the JWs on this forum, I remember even telling them, someone of their own wanted to take action, but was fearful of not just being killed, but his family and relatives being tormented and killed before they got to him, so it was a gamble to rescue the 13-14 year old girl who was a prostitute. Granted the person in question was but a boy himself, he did not know what to do and was also fearful of even telling older people, police is a tricky one due to high corruption.

But the bottom-line, immorality thrives on this earth. The only people who can step up is those who know how to fight it. The truth is, we CANNOT stop immorality 100% and all it's forms, but we can take steps into preventing some instances; tragically, you can save one, but elsewhere one suffers, but that should not discourage us, we continue to help out the best way we can because those same people are waiting for some kind of hope.

Let this sink in,

• a 14 year old was forced to marry an older man due to the fact she had intercourse with the man, and bore a child by this man.
• Older people having child mates is something that is being pushed by today's society, deeming this OK in the eyes of the general public.
• There are parents who technically sold their children's virginity off, granted they are not even pass the age of 16.

That being said, I take it you yourself is from the UK, the late Solider of God, and I and others took some form of action to spread information to all communities so they know HOW to deal with this kind of stuff, as well as the aftermath of it all, for such abuse can break a community, even those who are not well equipped to handle these things.
