An NSPCC Cymru spokesperson said: “Thomas has admitted very serious offences and by accumulating this vile material has helped fuel the demand for more to be created and for more harm to be inflicted on vulnerable, young people.
“The NSPCC is campaigning for more to be done to remove indecent images from the web, and prevent them from being circulated in the first place.”
