Show Notes

Two MEPs have condemned the sale of childlike sex dolls on fast fashion retailer Shein. Both Barry Andrews and Regina Doherty are shocked with what they have come across and have called for a €5 levy on ultra-fast fashion purchases from China, as the sale of these dolls violates both our moral and legal obligations to protect children.

What needs to be done to tackle the sale of these products and how can we prevent these platforms from advertising certain explicit and harrowing content?
