Why don't we just extradite journalists, editors and photographers responsible for the pictures. They may well have broken British law, Public Order Act at the least or you could argue it's Incitement or Sedition/Endangering State Security or if you had to charge them under the Terrorism Act.

Most of our extradition treaties with the countries concentrating don't even require us to prove a case to the country concerned just request the extradition and they've to fulfill it. Get them here and remand them to Belmarsh Prison straight away.

Justice must be served. William represents the Queen at times who represents the UK which means these pictures are disrespectful to Britain. They only appear in the media on official duties, they don't flaunt their private life all over it and so are entitled to not be harassed.

Terrorism Act? Seriously?

[psychojonas]

You can't extradite them if they're not in Britain, as it stands the photos were taken in France for a French magazine, probably by some anti-monarchist Frenchman.

There are so many journalists living in exile because they would be arrested if they went back to their original countries. My father was one of them for a while - he risked being arrested and tortured. What an absolutely terrible idea to extend extradition to journalism, risking limiting freedom of press even further.

EDIT: I take it people support like Turkey that imprison their journalists for opposing the government. Wouldn't it be ****ing great if the UK followed suit by requesting that journalists from other countries are put on trial over here? The UK would officially become one of the worst countries for freedom of press, and many countries would be forced to sever relations with the UK.

Just, shut up.

How do Kate Middleton's boobs endanger state security, exactly?

[Darth Stewie]

They are already suing the magazine through the French courts and please endangering state security? are the taliban going to build a teet seeking missile?

It's a woman sunbathing with her top off, frankly the most distressing thing about this whole pantomime is that the story has been on the front pages of news papers for 3 days.

You don't understand. The Royals are just constitutional. Remember?

We always need to keep abreast of potential threats.

I suppose you're right, we can't let these things rack up.

If it's not a crime in France then there really aren't any grounds to extradite them. But the terrorism act? For a photo of some boobs.... She's in the royal family but it would be completely ridiculous to argue that this is somehow putting Britain at risk. This is a breach of privacy, which is a huge shame but few complain (at least this much) when it happens to other celebrities. Sure they can go and sue whoever's responsible, as it shouldn't be allowed to take unauthorised pictures of people in private property, but the fact that she's married into a well known genes shouldn't change anything.

[cl_steele]

correct me if im wrong but since when can you extradite someone who isnt british and hasnt committed a crime in britain to britain ?

[That Bearded Man]

Who really cares?

Surely those photos will help boost trade with Italy?

If we're not careful the next thing you know everything has gone tits up. And then we'd be busted.

OP, you're being a melon. People publishing pictures of breasts are not terrorists. I don't agree with what they did, but as far as I'm aware they did nothing wrong under French law so there's nothing we can do. So can it.

[Superunknown17]

Though I'm certainly not a royalist, I don't believe that their privacy should have been invaded like that. Though I would have expected more from the future Queen.

You're so right, got to nip these things in the bud. At least in a few weeks it'll all just be a mammary.

[f1mad]

Yawn.

[The Gentle Giant]

Nah, it'd just be quicker and easier to just declare war on France to uphold the Princesses honour. We can also get Calais back, and send a message not to mess with the royals.

Everybody wins

[Beebumble]

because only the American government can pluck people out of their countries for breaking a law that doesn't exist in that persons country.

[Joshalos]

This whole topless photo thing has gone completely tits up. Wow, she was bathing topless, maybe she did think it was in private but she should have expected a chance to be seen like that considering her high profile.

Edit: Aw, damn. Beaten to the pun. Erm... Don't know how longer the papers are going to milk this story for.
