The government announcement on banning social media for the under-16s is papering over the real issues from social media being so poorly regulated.
And this is quite frankly Keir Starmer signalling loud and clear that he's afraid to stand up to the likes of Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.
How on Earth do you make an announcement with a video where Starmer looks like an awkward guidance counsellor, about keeping people safe from hateful content on Twitter of all sites?
