Suella Braverman

Reform UK — Fareham and Waterlooville

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 March 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

I welcome the hon. Lady’s comments on the new clause, and also the cross-party support that demonstrates that this is a cross-party issue and is not about party allegiance. Does she agree that the data and the evidence promoted by specialists such as Jonathan Haidt show that problems with literacy, numeracy and focus among children have accelerated since the early 2010s, which coincides with their access to phones? When it comes to what this Government should be doing, it is an open-and-shut case.
