Where did the paedophile idea come from? Who has dreamt this up? There are millions of vids out there with children on. The problem of paedophiles is not solved by hiding children doing normal things from the internet, and more than the problem of terrorism is solved by us all staying at home.

I have some concerns about very young children, however genuine and spontaneous they may be, getting involved in this sort of political haranguing. I agree with much of what the child says but if it were a young child praising Theresa May, for example for her stance on immigration, I would feel there could be a perception that a child was being used as a propaganda tool.

However, I do think some of the comments here are getting a bit silly now, and also a bit worrying. How one goes from a little girl saying what she thinks to imagining her being viewed as a mini-dominatrix I can't imagine. As luckygirl said, there is loads of quite innocent footage featuring babies and children. In any case, children are seen in public all the time. If some very sick people see a little girl in a dress playing in a playground and find it arousing, does that mean little girls shouldn't wear dresses in public?
