As I understand it, it would be illegal for the UK government to try to ban Medal of Honor itself...
You imply in the UK we actually have the right to Freedom of Speech in any way protected under law.
LOL!
The English Parliament has ABSOLUTE POWER! We have no written constitution, they can enact ANY law that gets enough votes, also repeal any law.
Certainly they can ban any entertainment product they like.
More simply the BBFC merely has to REFUSE TO GIVE IT A RATING and it becomes illegal to sell the game in the UK. Yes, it's illegal to sell any game, video or show any film reel that has not been approved and rated by government censorship board. And they only approve THEIR censored cut.
This happened with Austin Powers, all reference to the comical Irish terrorist were removed to get any rating at all.
