Labour (Co-op) — Oxford East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 June 2026

Debate

Social Media Ban for Under-16s

Contribution

Five hundred and twenty-seven of my constituents told me that they wanted a ban—I am delighted that the Government have listened to them—and only seven were against. Parents also said in the consultation that they wanted action on recommender algorithms, which are radicalising increasing numbers of adults, who are seeing increasing amounts of extremist content. Will my right hon. Friend come back to us in July with measures to ensure transparency and user control over recommender algorithms?
