Leave to appeal was refused because the sentencing judge correctly identified and applied the relevant sentencing principles and guidance, properly assessed significant aggravating factors (15‑year age gap, prolonged grooming and exploitation, recording and possession of level 4 material, psychological harm and high risk of reoffending), applied the guilty plea discount and the totality principle, and the overall cumulative sentence of 7 years imprisonment was not manifestly excessive.
