HTTPS means PG-13 in the UK's network filter?

With https the filter cannot mitm and figure out which page is being accessed, so will have to block the entire site.

What filter are you discussing? AFAIK UK filtering is done by ISPs and conforms to their own solutions, there is no plan for a statewide filtering system.

The filtering will be enabled by default for all large ISPs, so potentially a large % of the UK. You have the same problem with HTTPS either way.

I do not think thats how these filters operate. No banking/shopping site would properly function. They are just stupid IP based filters.
