Daniel Francis

Labour — Bexleyheath and Crayford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 16 December 2025

Debate

Electoral Resilience

Contribution

I echo colleagues’ comments regarding social media sites. In Bexleyheath and Crayford, we have seen more and more examples of anonymous users, particularly on Facebook, spreading disinformation not just at election time, but also to undermine trust and faith in public bodies outside election time. As well as the review, will the Secretary of State give us assurances about how we can continue to work with colleagues across Government to look at these issues, and at how foreign interference is playing its part in them?
