I don't have Premium and generally don't use VPNs either. Well, YouTube pestered me to do this for a few months, and I've not been asked since. I think there are different levels of age-restricted videos. "Fuck the Tories" is probably not in the same tier as that guy leaning over the camera, exposing his arsehole and rubbing Nair all over his taint for 51 million viewers. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m sure at least one Tory MP was suspended for doing that, weren’t they? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mind you, I was already signed up to YT long before Google bought it so that may be why I've never had to prove my age. Or Google may already know my age? I never give my real DOB online, but always use a friend's which is in the same ballpark and easy to remember. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQR 14,397 Posted June 21 That's a funny way of saying he was booed and a dozen or so people shouted "Shame" at him. Think they might need to watch the footage back. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given she can't pronounce her "G"s, getting an endorsement from a George is quite an achievement. Priti vacant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sod's Law 445 Posted June 21 When Gideon Osborne was chancellor, I thought he had the kind of face you'd never get tired of drowning in a toilet bowl, but even I thought he had better judgement in 'leadership material' than that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There used to be a guy on Youtube who had about 10 videos up, all of the same thing: him in a kitchen, standing with his back to the camera in tight trousers and riding boots, farting. I think he was French. Anyway his channel was deleted for violating community standards. I remember Youtube wanting adult verification a few times years ago, but then it seemed to go away.

Yup. What makes its all the worse is Fred Thomas is bound not to say what he was doing as its bound by offical secrets act. That's Mercer gone. It's despicable last ditch ploy for votes. I hope he's called out on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philheybrookbay1 247 Posted June 22 When the Conservative Party are saying anything under 20k majority is lost and efforts must be refocused on constituency with a larger majority, you know the game is up. Meanwhile my social media with my friends in Moor View show the serious disquiet in Mercers actions. I get the feeling he had the call saying all is lost and this smear was the final desperate roll of the dice. Edit - not even 8am and Mercer has lost it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
