Gloria De Piero & Some Topless Pics
Following on from the so called Sam Cam risque photos it appears some far more interesting ones are out there of glamorous Labour candidate Gloria De Piero. Oh dear Harman will be fuming.

Well under laws brought in by Labour she was involved in the production of child pornography, and if she still has them at home somewhere is guilty of possession of child porn.
This is nothing. The Lib-Dems have a porn video producer as one of their candidates. A few harmless glamour pictures are mild by comparison.
The age of consent for pornography is 18. They would be indecent images of a minor, so yes, if they are in her possession she is technically guilty of production and possession of indecent images of a minor.
Such cases are already hitting the courts in the US, where teens who have taken naked pics of themselves and texted them to friends have found themselves and the friends they texted the images to placed on the sex offender's register.
Why not give us a link to some of the pornography work by that Lib Dem PPC as well?
She was 15, as reported in other articles.
A sexualised picture of a topless 15 year old girl is classified as child porn in the UK.
On that basis I am not sure I do agree with child porn laws, or at least am not satisfied with how they are framed.
The Daily Mail is claiming she was a Page 3 model, yet she only had "Page 3 style" photographs taken. Note it to refers to 16 as being the age in question.
She was 15, and if people in the UK are found to have pictures of nude 15 year olds they are likely to be charged with child porn offences.
I doubt very much that she would be charged for having topless photos of herself from 20 years ago.
Are you saying its not an offence?
If, for example such photos were of family members on holiday, then I very much doubt anyone would bother to prosecute. We've all probably seen young children naked or partially naked on the beach. Does that make us all paedophiles?
On a technical level it could be investigated if there was evidence to do so, but why would it here? There certainly wouldn't be charges.
I suspect every parent has nude, or semi nude photos of their children. Are you suggesting they would be charged?
Now you are arguing with child pornography laws, not me.
This kind of thing is going on in the US now, and child porn offences are those Interpol are generally obsessed with pursuing.

That's very different. She sent the pictures to other people, also under 16. And it's in the USA, this "offence" took place here in the UK about 12 years ago.
They are unlikely to be in suggestive glamour style poses.
No I am suggesting the child porn laws are ill thought out.
As for there being no police interest? If someone knew these photos existed and were in her home, or more pertinently perhaps someone elses home the Police would have to investigate would they not?
If a 3rd party had these pictures then they could easily face prosecution.
I think you weill find child porn offences are one area of the law which increasingly has a global remit in terms of prosecution.
There is a porn actress called Traci Lords who made porn films underage (at her own behest) 20 years ago - possession of those films is now considered possession of child porn, age of material is not likely to be a factor in child porn cases.
It IS an offence though, the only debate is whether she would be charged.
Its not an extreme interpretation, possession of sexualised pictures of a 15 year old girl is an offence in UK law.
A jolly fine looking woman I'd say jim
We definately need more like her in Parliament.
I went off Sam Cam when the tory/nasty party decided to change her voice because she sounded too posh.:D
Then surely the question should be " How has the Telegraph come to have either seen or to be in posession of these photo's"?
If Gloria De Piero isn't available for comment then I doubt she has anything to do with it so who has and what's more are they guilty of breaking pornography laws for showing them to other people.
If they have them and have shown them around then yes they are indeed committing possession and distribution offences.
