Currently being discussed in Parliament would make an offence of Cyber-Flashing - basically sending an unsolicited naked image.

Yes and No.
'currently . . .
. . . if you send, or repeatedly send unsolicited images. If there were two or more images sent and the recipient claims to have been caused fear or distress as a result, then you could be investigated and possibly charged with an offence of harassment. Under the Malicious Communications Act it can be an offence to send a message which is ‘grossly offensive, or of an indecent, obscene or menacing character’. There is an argument to say that unsolicited sexual images could be seen as being ‘obscene’ and therefore charges could be pursued under this legislation.'
Or a picture of anyone below the age of 18.
