Labour — Folkestone and Hythe

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 February 2025

Debate

Social Media Use: Minimum Age

Contribution

The hon. Lady makes a common-sense point: if we are going to advocate for change, we have to lead by example. It might be said that the harms we are talking about are a somewhat separate issue to that. Of course we need to take responsibility, but where we have social media companies that are pushing content that is objectively dangerous, we need to have the conversation that we are having today about how the system and social media companies should be forced to ensure that that space is a safe one.
