Re: Online Safety Bill

The mother of murdered teenager Brianna Ghey is calling for restrictions on mobile phones for under 16's.

She wants them to only be able to have basic phones or child smartphones that don't give access to social media.

On the last Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme a Government spokeswoman said that she thought that an outright ban would be draconian, but that a ban at school would be sensible.

This link contains a link to the petition should anyone wish to sign it:

This was also discussed on the Jeremy Vine shoe this morning where there was a call for more regulation of user to user sites because all they are interested in is continued increased usage and not the welfare of vulnerable people.
