now scrap the online surveillance act too. then call a bloody general election.

Hold your celebration, The children's safety act is Digital ID through the backdoor. They still want you to have software installed on your phone to verify your age, and scan your photos and messages. This is nothing more than a diversion to make you think they're backtracking.
@
For now...
@
If you do the complete opposite to what Starmer did you won't go far wrong.

good now abolish the online safety act

edit for clarity: I’m referring to ofcom going on a power trip, age verification and censorship. that all needs to stop. parents should be parents and they need to be educated about online safety along with their kids

Butterworth is a complete melt. He should stay at home

Of course Butterworth is a fan of digital ID. There was never a stupid idea he didn't like.

It’s because they don’t want to alienate illegal workers who will suffer due to digital ID
@
MY QUESTION TO BURNHAM IS IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE ONES, WILL YOU CALL A GENERAL ELECTION?? SO SOMEONE ELSE CAN.
@
Can we have freedom of speech back next?
