Liverpool: Councillor

A councillor has spoke of his anger at discovering his pictures were being used on a gay dating service to solicit sex for £40 a time.

Jake Morrison, 21, said it was “disturbing” that his photos had been stolen by an imposter on Grindr, a social networking service for gay men.

The councillor for Wavertree, told the Liverpool Echo :“I am a politician and for somebody to use my pictures and pretend to be me in this way is damaging to my reputation and is very serious.”

Photos of Cllr Morrison are sent to strangers on Grindr, before the perpetrator offers to perform sex acts in exchange for £40.

Cllr Morrison, who is openly gay, said: “I have no idea why someone would do this and I hope they will stop.

“People will think it is me who is making these offers of sex, but it’s not.

“I find it bizarre and disturbing that someone would do this.”

I think charging £40 for that is pushing it.
