Make it illegal for people over 21 to have sexual intercourse with under 18s

Petition Details

Create a law so young people are protected from predatory adults over the age of 21 taking advantage of a power imbalance.

Additional Information

We believe that more needs to be done to recognise in law the vulnerability of those who are of the age of consent but are still very young, from sexual exploitation. It is our view that there is no scenario where it is acceptable for a grown adult to be in a sexual relationship with a school child who cannot vote in some elections and, in many cases, can't take out a loan, or rent a property.
