The all new "Gee I never saw this coming" thread

[Barman]

So I should have said that piece of the legislation but frankly I thought that was obvious.

Farage and mob say they will repeal every single part of it incl the parts protecting children, as one of their first acts on taking office.  Inane and classic simpleton's throw baby out with bathwater approach to problems.

It is a terrible act like so much introduced by our incompetent politicians of late. Reform are right to oppose it in full...

As I mentioned earlier, we'll see what the act is really about (spoiler: not protecting kiddies) in the next six months or so...

So you agree Farage is committed to remove laws that protect children from on line sexual exploitation and bullying without any plan on how to restore that protection.

Nice try...

Reform, along with many other political commentators (Kemi Badenoch being one such) are strongly opposed to the bill as they believe it will restrict freedom of speech in the UK and do nothing to protect the kiddies...

Presumably comments you don't hear on the BBC?

However, I'm not prepared to get into a prolonged, circular argument with you over it.

I'm locking the thread. We can revisit in six months or so and see if the bill really has protected kiddies or censored free speech, allowing the government to clamp down on criticism of its policies by adults.
