03/20/2009: "Promiscuity is hyped to try and counter sexually transmitted diseases...!"

Cosmopolitan magazine writer Sarah Hedley, brought in to speak for the campaign, is quoted as saying: "Taking a condom on a night out should be as normal as taking a phone, keys and purse.

But Conservative MP Julian Brazier said: "I have always accepted that condoms have some role to play in fighting sexually-transmitted infections.

"But it is very sad that the authors of this document do not seem to understand that the problem starts with growing levels of sexual activity by people with multiple partners.

"This campaign is contributing to the further growth of the problem rather than to public health."

[ Some rare sense spoken by a Conservative MP there! ]
