Re: MP's,Celebs & Paedophilia
New documents released by the Cabinet Office show that Margaret Thatcher, the Conservative prime minister, attempted to prevent the public from learning about paedophilia accusations against senior diplomat Sir Peter Hayman.

He asked the House whether the attorney general "will prosecute Sir Peter Hayman under the Post Office Acts for sending and receiving pornographic material though the Royal Mail |
