Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2026

Debate

Social Media: Use of X by Government Departments

Contribution

I am sorry if I gave that impression. That is absolutely not what I meant; I meant that, in terms of its responsibilities, X has to follow the law. With regard to anyone standing for election, all of us who have done so know that there are ways and means for us to beat our opponents, and that is at the ballot box. We will continue to do so. Personally, I enjoyed campaigning against the candidate who was referenced; it is an incredibly important part of all this. Last week, I had the final Question just before the football. I have the same Question today. I do not want to tempt fate, but come on, England!
