The Daily T: ‘I don't want children to watch me on OnlyFans, I'd rather lose money'
Today, the UK is set to introduce age verification checks on porn sites to stop under age people from accessing explicit content. An Ofcom report showed 8 % of children aged 8–14 accessed porn in just one month, showing a desperate need for change. But will these measures actually work or do they risk pushing young people towards darker corners of the internet? For this special episode of The Daily T, Camilla talks through the new rules and the recommendations made by the Independent Pornography Review with Rebecca Goodwin, an adult film star, and Shaun Flores, a mental health advocate and educator who was addicted to porn. We explore how easy it is for teenagers to access adult content, what impact it's having on mental health and relationships, and whether new laws banning acts like strangulation in porn will make a difference. We also discuss porn performer and content creator Bonnie Blue, who has spoken about creating more extreme content to survive in a competitive market - and the uncomfortable questions this raises about what our young people are seeing about sex online.

Driver who caused death of young mother who was knocked off e-bike is jailed
A driver who admitted causing the death of a young mother who was knocked off the back of an electric motorbike ridden by her boyfriend has been jailed for more than five years. Keaton Muldoon, 23, was acquitted after a trial at Derby Crown Court of murdering 25-year-old Alana Armstrong and causing grievous bodily harm with intent to her boyfriend Jordan Newton-Kay, who had his right leg amputated 15cm above the knee after the crash on November 26 last year. Before the trial began, Muldoon, of Tuckers Lane in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving, causing serious injury by dangerous driving and driving whilst disqualified. Muldoon, who the court heard was a drug dealer, told the jury of 11 women and one man during the trial that he 'did not know' he had hit anyone while driving his Land Rover Discovery on the evening of November 26 last year, and thought he had overtaken Mr Newton-Kay's bike at a passing point. The prosecution alleged that Muldoon 'pursued' the couple, and another electric bike ridden by a friend of Mr Newton-Kay, after they stopped near the defendant's 4×4 at a lay-by and shined their lights inside the vehicle. The defendant told the court he feared he was going to be robbed but did not 'chase' the Sur-Ron off-road bike for more than a mile from the lay-by in Sampsons Lane, Pleasley. In a victim impact statement read to the court by prosecution counsel Sally Howes KC on Friday, Mr Newton-Kay said 'nothing feels right' without his partner, adding: 'I can't see a future without her in it. 'My life has been turned upside down. I have lost my leg and the love of my life by the age of 23.' In another statement, Ms Armstrong's mother said she was a 'kind-hearted soul' who wanted the best for everyone she cared about. She said: 'I have lost my baby… As a family, we feel tormented that she has lost her life because of someone else's actions.' Defending Muldoon, Adrian Langdale KC said the defendant was 'extremely young' at the time of the incident but had written a 'mature' letter to Judge Shaun Smith KC highlighting his remorse for what happened. Judge Smith imposed a sentence of five years and three months for causing the death of Ms Armstrong, with concurrent sentences of 27 months for injuring Mr Newton-Kay and one month for driving whilst disqualified. He banned him from driving for 12 and a half years and said he must serve at least half of his sentence before he can be released on extended licence. He said he could not be sure that Muldoon's vehicle made contact with Mr Newton-Kay's bike, but he was satisfied that it was the defendant's dangerous driving that made the bike lose control. He said: 'You were irritated by what happened and decided you were going to teach them a lesson by frightening them. 'What you did was, on more than occasion, got close to one or more of the e-bikes to frighten them. 'It was not only dangerous, but carried the real risk of a collision or cause one of them to lose control, leading to potentially tragic consequences. 'I take the view that each decision you took that night was conscious and deliberate. You knew exactly what you were doing.' Despite this, the judge accepted Muldoon had not intended to cause death or injury that evening. He said: 'You didn't set out that night to injure or kill someone. You are, I accept, truly remorseful.' He added: 'There is no price of a human life, but neither can sentence be measured by revenge. 'It cannot return Alana to those who love her or return Mr Newton-Kay to full health. 'Those who know and love Alana have been utterly crushed and devastated.'

Consequences of moment of violence are ‘eternal', boy's mother tells killers
The mother of a 14-year-old schoolboy who was stabbed to death on a bus told her son's killers that a 'moment of violence' has led to 'eternal' consequences. Aspiring rapper Kelyan Bokassa was stabbed around 27 times in the attack that lasted around 14 seconds as he travelled on a route 472 bus in Woolwich, south-east London, on January 7. Two youths, aged 16, appeared at the Old Bailey to be sentenced on Friday after they pleaded guilty to Kelyan's murder and having a knife. In a victim impact statement, Kelyan's mother Marie Bokassa said: 'I stand here not just as a mother but as a broken soul whose life changed forever the day my child's life was taken from me by another child.' Speaking through tears and wearing black, she added: 'At least my son is at peace, and those two kids are going to have a really tough time. 'I ask myself what has happened to those two boys that has resulted in that terrible act of violence and I cannot imagine how can they be so angry. 'What they did was horrific and I do not know what has led them to do this and maybe I will never.' 'That moment of violence may have lasted seconds but its consequences are eternal,' Ms Bokassa said. She told the court her son had loved food, cooking and football and brought her flowers on her birthday. 'He would put music on and we'd dance together in the living room,' she said. 'He loved Mr Bean, which we watched together, and he would laugh. I miss his laugh, miss his voice. 'I will never see his children or be a grandmother and he will never have his own family.' Ms Bokassa added that she had spent her son's 15th birthday at his graveside and that she missed everything about him. She said that some people in her neighbourhood cannot look at her and she is petrified to take public transport, particularly the 472 bus. 'I feel judged,' Ms Bokassa added. 'Maybe I will never recover, all I know is I will live and I will have to be strong for my son and I will have to constantly find a coping mechanism,' she continued. 'He would want me to try and solve youth crime and not give up on my life. 'My son loved me and would want me to go on with my life. 'These two young boys took my son's life without hesitation, they will now have to face the consequences of their actions here today. 'My only hope is they get the help they need before they ever get released into society.' In a statement Kelyan's father, Hashim Mohamed, said his son's death had prompted him and his wife to consider 'youth violence' and to 'think politically' about knife crime. 'I never expected Kelyan's life to end tragically, to the contrary I believed he would one day thrive as an elite athlete or even as a creative,' he wrote in a statement read out on his behalf by prosecutor Deanna Heer KC. The hearing was attended by around 20 members of the public, who filled the public gallery, all of whom wore black while some hid their faces and sobbed loudly as CCTV footage of the attack was shown to the court. Kelyan's mother left the hearing briefly while the video of her son's murder was played.
