age of consent london
The male homosexual age of consent in the United Kingdom was set at 21 in the Sexual Offences Act of 1967, then lowered to 18 in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, and finally lowered to 16 in England and Scotland in the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act of 2000.
However, the age of consent is 18 years where the sexual activity exploits the young person when it involves prostitution, pornography or occurs in a relationship of authority, trust or dependency (e.g., with a teacher, coach or babysitter).
