    Should we invest in education for children as to what is and isn’t healthy sexual behaviour, or perhaps put the responsibility for patenting children on the parents? No, let’s bring in authoritarian laws and undermine online privacy again, and maybe let some of our mates get rich while we’re at it!

      Problem is, just like pensioners this cohort of active voters (entitled parents) have the ear of political parties. They threaten to vote with their feet. These daft policies don’t start in a vacuum. Middle class parents have lobbied for years to get to this stage and the government had obliged rather than do the hard thing and better educate parents on how to keep their children safe online.

      Can’t wait for Keir to get in and reverse or axe this policy. That’s what he’ll do, right? Right?

        Kier ain’t axing shit. The man is too busy pivoting on all pledges so he can morph into Boris and you think he will make this the seperating line?
