In N.I. sleeping with a 16yo girl is illegal. As I live here am I justified in c!
Question: The age of consent here is 17 but I hate Jeremy Vile so much I want to label him with one of the worst titles I can. I know what he did was in England, but in Britain we still think of Jerry Lee Lewis as a bad man for marrying a 13yo even though it was legal in the state where he did it. What do you all think?

I don't think you need to justify that.....Lol
If he did it in England, then it was legal and you can't call him that.
But his show is irritating. I can't watch it.
i read that article but i dont remember a bit about him sleeping with her.
You are so right. He should be in jail.Paedo.
it is illegal in England
I don't really care to be honest. There's no point wasting your energy hating Jeremy Vile, its only going to make you feel worse.
Why whats he done?
why do you hate him so much ?
I think he can be a little arrogant at times but on the whole he just wants to help, and he has helped lots of people too, so why judge him on 1 mistake
Stick to the laws of the land you are in and you're covered
EDIT: LOLA - You need an education on British Law - In England the age of consent is 16, so if he did sleep with someone who was 16 (I've not seen the story so can't comment) he did nothing against the law.
i dont like him either,, he thinks hes above everyone else,
what are you talking about?
It is not illegal in England for a 16 year old to have sex so you have no right to name call.Jerry Lee Lewis marrying his 13 year old cousin was too sick for words and there is a big difference between 13 and 16.
He is annoying and arrogant and it sounds like he took advantage, but 2 things: 1) they didn't have sex with each other and 2) in England the age of consent is 16 so even if they had, it wouldn't have been illegal. Inappropriate, definitely, but not against the law. Besides, when I think of a paedo, I think of someone who molests children, not teenagers. There's a big difference between a 10-year old child and a 16-year old, for example. It doesn't make what he did right but even if you hate him I think it's wrong to call him a paedophile.
Difficult though it is to imagine for most Brits, remember that the age of consent in Canada is *14*....
