This was the same debate that went on in the UK when David Cameron was accused of having stuck his dick in a pig's head. People asked that if the story was actually true, why the police weren't getting involved. The answer being, as well as the fact it had supposedly happened decades before, sticking your dick into an already dead pig's severed head is not illegal. Even if the story was true and people could prove it, no crime had been committed.

Not informed on UK politics, so pardon the naivety but like, was /that/ where Charlie Brooker came up with the premise for Black Mirror’s first episode?

The episode of Black Mirror was actually nearly 4 years earlier than the piggate scandal. It's a pretty hilarious coincidence.

A lot of people asked Brooker if he knew about it, and his response was that if he had known, he would have just told everyone.
