The great campaigner has moved on to clean up standards in heavenly parts. Despite having a magazine named after her, she never strayed from the straight & narrow. BGAFD salutes her energy, if not her aims.

Thank heaven she never succeeded! Bless her.

Oh! C`mon! We at the BGAFD are above gloating at the death of a bed-ridden old lady, no matter how mis-guided her veiws were. Lets have some respect for the dead. Comparing her with Hitler is far too strong.

I think anyone who succeeds so well in life to fulfil their aim, which they truely believe to be correct, should be respected. She truely believed what she was doing was for the good of the nation. OK she lived in a Mills and Boon fantasy land, but atleast she did not really hurt anyone or gas anyone for that matter.

BTW uploading loads of new links daily on and the links to free pictures is now at 400 per day. So come on get your hardcore pornography here!!

Mary Whitehouse was never really against sex, just when it was violent.

'Mary Whitehouse was never really against sex'

the Taliban were never really against america, or music, or women or TV or......

The similarities between the Taliban and Mary Whitehouse, both tried to limit a certain pleasure(s) from adults. Both used religion as a justification of their views. And the arses who gave them power are as much to blame.

Mary Whitehouse tried to stop most sex ('to protect the children'), if she wanted to protect them why didn't she just cut out there eyes? At least the Taliban tried to stop robbery by cutting peoples hands and feet off(how the state can justify any atrocities is amazing). Is censorship in any way like cutting peoples eyes out?

I think we should all celebrate by buying her titular sex magazine .

sense at last! its amazing just how blind people can be. if that woman had her way and many like, we would all be living a very different lives. she wished to "dictate" what i could/should be watching and given the power thats what she wouldve done. i stand by my comparison as she was a person who genuinly belived she was right to change the world to her beliefs and so did hitler. the price of democracy is eternal vigilance. its sad that some of you cant identify a threat to freedom just because she never achieved her aims or because she was a little old lady.
nieve,very nieve!

anyway shes dead so its all irrelivent,now.
and besides, you should have seen my original post. now, that was offensive!

that is offensivly nieve,krome!

so by this rational,ANY belief is admirable if it is followed with such passion? neo-nazi's ,krome? they are very keen on a certain point of view. are they to be respected? no one could doubt their commitment to their cause!

hitler truly belived he had the good of his nation when he came up with the final solution. he also truly belived!

i realize you obviously (i hope) dont belive that these people were/are to be admired,but its a very nieve thing to say.

i dont think so. youre judging her on what she achieved, im judging her on what she wanted to achieve.

She was only concerned about free to air tv. She never campaigned against porn or satellite channels.
