Consent and statutory rape

Had a discussion with a friend on the issue of the recent case decision of the case of rape of minor and decision was consensual sex with a minor is a OK thing to do?

my friend has been quite confused with the case law decision.

However, I guess this does not have anything to do with the long expected GE soon. We are looking forward for the GE anyway.

Be it the result is +ve for the BN or -ve for BN it doesn't matter.

But i think we need to have awareness whether what is the actual situation.
and also understand what is Statutory rape, Maybe the news is just too big for us to catch and the situation is being discussed among people.But it is just a topic to discuss over lunch / dinner or rather a point that we need to ponder what is happening.

What is the rational behind, why the judgement has been decided as such.
