Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has unveiled a proposal to ban children under the age of 16 from using social media platforms.
The move, announced by Starmer, aims to protect young individuals from the potential harms associated with excessive social media use, including cyberbullying and the spread of misinformation.
According to Starmer, the proposed ban is part of a broader effort to regulate the tech industry and ensure that social media companies prioritize the well-being and safety of their users, particularly children and vulnerable individuals.
