Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Amendment 177 does not seek to hobble innovation. It would ensure that innovation served humanity and did not exploit the most vulnerable. The tech industry’s greatest achievements lie ahead, but they cannot be realised when its entire business model depends on harming children. This under-16 social media ban amendment would provide a framework to preserve innovation while addressing this critical blind spot.
