He's abusing the law, it's obviously not designed for a 30 plus year old to have a relationship with a 16 year old.
It was last revised under the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885 where it was raised from 13 to 16... so I would think it probably was designed exactly that way. None of the parliaments in the UK seem to have any intention of raising it.
This is the British parliament we're talking about. The law was likely designed so that British politicians and nobility could bang a 14 or 15yo and still have a chance at convincing a jury that they, "thought they were 16! It's not like I'm going to demand ID!"
