On This Day 1994: Vote To Lower Gay Age Of Consent
Gay rights activists campaigned for a reduction from 21 to 16 but MPs voted only to change it for those aged over 18.
However, in 2000, the age was lowered to 16 - making it the same for gay & straight people. Report by Guinnesse. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
