Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2025
Debate
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
The tech companies are showing absolutely no restraint on this. Recent leaks from Meta about sexualised child AI bots show that it is absolutely not holding back, and that is why we have to act. This intolerable situation persists because the industry has deliberately played the “deny, consult, delay, distract, repeat” formula and Governments have failed to stand up. Their aggressive lobbying holds child welfare hostage to corporate profits, undermines Britain’s economic resilience and corrupts the democratic accountability of this Parliament.
