I’m no fan of Gary Glitter, but if he wants to go to Spain, where the age of consent is 13, then the law shouldn’t be just made up as it goes along to stop him.
Ashford magistrates granted an order requested by Kent Police last Thursday stopping Glitter from travelling.
The 64-year-old has the right to appeal, and the ban applies only to those two countries.
He has done his crime and he has done his time. The laws being used against his free movement will be adapted to all of us eventually.
