Honesty is the best policy, after all. The only problem is some of those marked as sex offenders are innocent and don’t deserve to be hunted and killed by the vigilantes this list would inspire.
Comment on What is the point of this exactly?

To show that the vast majority of child sex crime in the UK is committed by white, birthright citizens of the UK?

It won’t collect the statistics of the white, wealthy, and powerful who have always gotten away with their crimes because other white, wealthy, powerful people look the other way.

If you’re right, then this would mean that the people who don’t like immigrants would struggle more with getting people to their side, and thus be less likely to destroy the country.

Either way, it will be more statistics that news sites and drama people will be able to spin to generate clicks.

The only problem with this idea is that it is designed to record sex crimes against children by non-wealthy, non-politically and -religiously connected, non-powerful, and non-white child sex predators. The wealthy child sex predators, the politically connected child sex predators, the religiously connected child sex predators, and the powerful child sex predators who are predominantly white and birthright citizens will continue to cover for each other or be moved from parish to parish to continue their child sex crimes as her have done for hundreds of years.

I would have thought it would be designed against that.
Though the ultra wealthy and powerful would probably find a way around almost anything…

I said that in a comment. It won’t catch the bulk of the abuse because it is perpetrated by wealthy, powerful, connected white people.
