Is it illegal for a 16 year old to go out with an 18 year old in the UK?

I've heard some things about it and apparently it's a law that was set two years ago.
Is this true?

Not true. If you're 16 then you're above the age of consent and there's nothing illegal about it. |

Christ!! it shows what a fascist! country Britain has allowed its self to become when two young people have to ask a question like that......that is the sickest and the saddest thing i have ever heard. what on earth has happened to our country under the f*cking labour party?....to answer your question .....its called normality!!....most people are normal. its just that this country seems to be dragged around by the b*llocks by very sic and strange do gooders who would be better served in a mental hospital than a position of power. |
