Starmer announces social media ban for under-16s

Video Overview & Insights

Watch live from Downing Street as Sir Keir Starmer announces under-16s will be banned from all the major social media apps. It follows a similar move by Australia in December last year.

What action are they actually going to take against social media companies? ... Nothing? ...

It does show a concern for our children's health and state of mind and in respect of that he has my respect for this law, given the money moguls who won't be happy.

Maybe we are finally seeing the light whereby the government puts concern for the British people over money.

Seaman Starmer is full of it.A CCP trick simply to compromise the everyday liberties of a certain age group. It's clearly a CCP policy, they of the Google clampdown in China and the subjugation of Hong Kong. UK electorate have given no mandate for Seaman Starmer to assert external policies in Britain - this individual mouth piece has no mandate to apply policies of a stated atheist group into British life - the King should intervene and preclude this spiritless PM from threatening the British public. They also want "assisted dying" in Britain - a measure the Lords cannot stand for - as it's but a back door way for mass murder - see COVID. There is no inherent energy conscience in Seaman Starmer - a numbed "attribute" making him not only vulnerable himself but the consequential damage to the public, it's Common Law Rights, as PM demands immediate moratorium on his office and the sternest most thorough investigations as to who is running Britain.

Its interesting that almost everything that people in the West accused China of being a surveillance state dictatorship for 10-15 earlier is slowly being implemented and enforced in the UK, from facial recognition in CCTV, to internet ID checks, to police arresting people for what they write on social media, for holding protest signs, and criminalising legal protests.

Brilliant, such a good move, but I have to say defence pressure and lack of decisiveness pushed him to act on lots of things he has been holding off on.

This isn't going to solve the problem.
But-sure, pass a law and that will definitely stop (insert) action.
It works every time, or just makes it look like government is "doing something" when they're actually not.

Great Britain is NOT a democracy any more. This announcement is 1 of many examples.

The sooner we can get this dictator gob $h!t£ out of office and put someone with a bit of common sense into number 10. The better this country will become.

He doesn't get why he is pushing the vast majority of voters too reform.
