Re: Online Safety Bill
The Prime Minister spoke about the Online Safety Act a few times in an interview from two days ago:

He also said that his children didn't get a smartphone until their last year of primary school.

Excellent
There are plenty of people bleating on about this,thankfully they are not the ones who make the laws and those who do make the laws see this as unworkable and costly to implement even if they tried. It will go the way of the dodo eventually.

Yes, but who would they be able to vote for to achieve this. All the political parties appear to be as woke as each other!
