IT is truly contemptible that the 7000 British men on the list of those who have paid for sickening images of children being raped and abused on the Internet will be allowed to carry on their depraved activities for some time to come, because we do not have the resources to bring these people to account.

That being the case, I think every newspaper should name and shame every person on that list in order to curb their activities now. This is the very least that can be done for those children even, while the investigation continues.
