>“Can I stand here and say that we have a perfect answer for you right now? No,” he said. “Can I say that as a party, we have more access to some of the best tech brains, not just in the country, but in the world? That I can say to you.”
Sounds like they’ll replace it with a similar thing.
Really atrocious politics from Labour. It’s so stupid. It’s a policy with very little gain (teens can easily bypass) and negatively impacts huge numbers of the population
Everyone saw this coming a mile off. Good job, Starmer, in giving Reform an easy win. Especially with the 16-year-olds who can now vote.
Farage splits the right wing vote. Starmer gets into power.
Starmer gives younger people the right to vote, imposes OSA and aims to drive labour support into the ground. Farage arrives just rejecting that, and potentially scoops them up. Farage potentially gets into power.
This is pro wrestling and nobody is going to be able to convince me otherwise.
No they won’t, it being rolled out worldwide including the USA , there’ll be no repeal!
And Labours already dire poll ratings will continue their further decline.
Starmer keeps scoring own goals and celebrating them like they’re wins.
And just like that Labour will suddenly be in favour of repealing it
This is an almost perfect idea.
When visiting a porn website instead of an age verification page or having to apply photo id etc…
… have a photo of Nigel Farage that stays on your screen for 15minutes.
The UKs porn addiction problem could be fixed overnight.
PORNSITE: Start Wanking NOW
“Nah, I’ll go and fold the laundry instead…”
They’re gunning for that 16 – 17 year old voting demographic.
It’s a bit rich Reform peddle out ‘dystopian’ when they’re literally running the playbook 101 on how to create a dystopian society. Hate and fear.
Times are grim if I’m siding with Reform UK on something.
Labour fucked up, people will 100% single issue vote on this. I don’t like it but that’s how I expect it to go at this rate.
Giving 16 year olds the vote whilst this exists is like asking them to pick who’s the coolest guy out of a bunch of randos and then including that one guy who will buy them booze from tescos with his id in the lineup.
I was hoping the lib Dems would jump on this. it’s the first time I genuinely fear reform.
why can’t we just have software locked under 18s phones rather than close off the entire internet ?
Or why can’t passport office/DVLA provide an anonymous unlinked 20 character code to anyone over 18 that uses a central app to confirm user is 18 without need for their identity ?
Why can’t we have sim locked phones? parents can just order a sim for their kids phone that has these limitations, and make it a requirement, maybe even allow teachers to check they have correct aim.
There are so many different options other than forcing people to ID themselves and these terrible moves by the government are giving charlatan group reform an easy platform.
Oh wow, Farage says he’ll do something he has no intention of following through on…is it Monday again 🙄.
Handing reform an easy policy win. Stupid, stupid stupid.
The bill is a blunt instrument meant to address a very real, and growing, problem: children exposed not just to increasingly extreme and degrading pornography at increasingly young ages (which is having a devastating and unremittingly negative impact on their beliefs, values and relationships as they grow older) but also the impact of seeing gruesome war-footage, propaganda and other things which no child should be exposed to until they’re of maturity.
A more sensible way to address this, it seems to me, would have been to introduce a bill mandating that all ISP routers sent to customers must have the child safety filters *enabled by default.*
Adding the extra step of requiring a customer to *choose* to disable it could make a big difference.
Any adult could easily disable this feature, thus there’s no censorship, nor any need for ID etc., as it’s just in the router settings. But for parents, especially those either less able with technology or simply unaware that such features exist, it would raise the minimum level of safety overall by not requiring them to understand it: by default, it’s enabled.
And so Labour once again hands Reform the easy win
Time to get my EU passport, cos Reform gonna win aren’t they 💀
Not surprising.
It’s easily curcumvented by children and is primarily going to confound elderly Reform voters.
“Grandpa…why are you asking me how to work the facial recognition on your phone?…Oh…Oh No…”
Everyone acting like this is a Labour bill when it was the Tory’s who created it…
Thanks, you have my vote now. That and the ridiculous IR35 please.
Was thinking that myself. Reform and the tories will be jumping for joy that people will associate this with labour even though it was a tory act
They absolutely don’t plan on it as they will receive the same money from the data collection companies as the others have.
However it’s easy for them to say they do to gain votes and backtrack on it.
Will they stick to it? Probably not. I just don’t trust them. Dont know who im going to vote for after this shit show is finally over
Honestly this stupid law has tempted me to vote for whoever vows to get rid of it. It is the most stupid thing of my lifetime and has had the most actual impact on my life compared to any other law I can think of. Yes it’s only a wank – but my god if I want to whack it out to some porn I shouldn’t have to verify my age to do so. It’s not my job to parent everybody else’s children.
But Reform seem to only think it’s a bad idea because it stifles social media companies, not because it’s an actually useless law.
How is it possible that Labour are managing to appear and act like the authoritarian government here and Reform are now somewhat successfully filling the holes Labour are creating in the country. It’s genuinely mind blowing how bad Labour are reading the room on every policy.
Not sure Starmer will last another year at this rate, the OSA is especially bad because it’s in your face every single day so nobody is forgetting it. He’s also going to have to explain some strange quirks, like why videos of Israel/Gaza happenings or hotel protests are being blocked but I can still view extremely gruesome Ukraine war videos.
They’re right, it is dystopian. This legislation is technically illiterate and ill thought out. It has good intentions, but the execution is crap and will not work.
I can say with confidence now that Reform have won my vote with this. I cannot trust any other party that thinks they can defend such an egregious attack on civil liberties.
Reform is going to risk its tradcon base on enabling children to access *immoral* content? Somehow I doubt that.
But only if they bother to show up and vote. Which four of them didn’t last time. The fifth voted in favour.

heartbreaking, worst person you know just made a really good point
I’m really considering voting reform. Labour have lost the plot and need a huge shock
That does it. I think many people will be voting Reform now. This is a return to common sense.
Anyone who wants Keir Starmer peeking in whenever you jack off feel free to keep voting Labor, but Reform is the only party that actually let’s people live their own lives.
Who gives a shit what they say they’ll do I don’t think they’re known for their follow through lol
Labour seem like they’re trying to lose at this point. May as well hope they implement PR as a way of keeping some kind of power. Vain hope I know :/

This was such an easy win for Reform.
Labour should never have let this actually be implemented.
You’ll be worse off economically but hey not like you’ll have anything better to do than watch porn ey
