Among the 56 charges, Mr Young - who police described as a white British national - is accused of voyeurism, possession of indecent images of children and possession of extreme images.

Dressed in a pair of dark blue jeans and a black zip-up jumper, he was remanded into custody earlier.

Mr Young served as a Conservative Swindon borough councillor for Covingham and Nythe between 2007 and 2010. The alleged offences are said to have taken place between 2010 and 2023.

I should have posted this under "Oh no, it's one of ours".

Plead guilty to 48 horrific charges.

ITV News At Ten didn't mention his party (can't comment on the BBC as they are showing a Traitors podcast). Paragraph 16 in the local paper.

His party was mentioned on BBC radio news, but, sacré blue, the story hasn't been given anywhere near the due prominence of the broadly comparable Pelicot case.

In other news, I am slowly coming to the firm conclusion that trusting men is a fool's errand on steroids. If I was a woman, I would be a dyke. Thank Christ, my daughter bats for Sappho. Her heart might get broken but not her nose.
