Torchwood--So do they not have ***ual harrassment laws across the pond?

The current status of ***ual harrassment in the US is largely a result of 
the fallout of the Clarence Thomas / Anita Hill affair nearly 2 decades
ago 
(when the fiscal liberals split from the social liberals in long-running 
censor****p vs free speech debate and ceded the free speech argument and 
opted for their own censor****p based on what has become known as
"political 
correctness", as opposed to the social conservatives' "moral
correctness"), 
resulting changes in public mores and laws in school, the government and
at 
work.

Is there no similar event to trigger a similar stance in the public or the

laws in the UK? Cuz they are ... ahem ... rather ... "touchy-feely" ... at

the Torchwood Institute in Cardiff. And their personal feelings have 
endangered the team, their mission and the Earth, countless number of
times 
in the past 2 seasons--and there's just a handful of them. Imagine what a 
fully-staffed TI London was like.

P.S. Sure, the Doctor is always holding hands with his Companions (he
barely 
met Rose Tyler and already holding her hand), but he's an
extraterrestrial. 
And half the time, subjectively (gotta watch your grammar tenses when 
dealing with time travel), he's either off Earth or in a noncontem****ary 
time frame and thus out of contem****ary UK jurisdiction and laws.
