Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about certain pornographic content, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Pornography which includes or depicts rape or sexual abuse of a child are already illegal in the UK.

Pornography depicting non-consensual sex was outlawed by the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015. You can find out more about this here: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn05078/

The law banning pornography depicting real or fictionalised sexual activity involving children was most recently updated via changes to The Coroners and Justice Act 2009. You can read this legislation here:
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2010/816/contents/made

We could accept a petition calling for the Government to increase the penalties for these offences, but enforcement is a matter for law enforcement agencies, not the Government or Parliament.
