MORE than 500 people will simulate sex acts outside Parliament in a mass protest against new UK porn regulations.

The #PornProtest is set to take place at Old Palace Yard in Westminster on Friday, as MPs debate the recent regulatory changes.

Under the new Audiovisual Media Services Regulations 2014 rules, facesitting, spanking and female ejaculation are among a range of sexual acts banned from paid-for online porn produced in the UK.

Critics say the changes are sexist, arbitrary and don’t distinguish between consensual and non-consensual acts between adults.

“These laws are not only sexist but they taking away people’s choices without consent,” protest organiser Charlotte Rose, Sex Worker of the Year 2013, told The Independent.

“Personal liberty is what we are fighting for on Friday which no one has the right to take away from somebody else.”

#PornProtest will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for facesitting and hold a ‘Sex Factor’ game show. Protesters will be fully-clothed.

The action will coincide with the debate of a motion put forward by Liberal Democrat MP Julian Huppert to annul the changes.
