Why don't we start with Keith Bays from GB News
0:07
Kimmy Budnock, we've heard about the dangers of social media today from parents and from families, quite literally tearing them apart
0:16
What more can you do to make social media companies engage and protect Britain's children
0:23
And if I may, a second, on Lord Mandelson and Keir Starmer
0:29
The Prime Minister has performed 16 U-turns. His personal approval rating is some of the lowest we've seen in modern British political history
0:39
His man in Washington has now been arrested and questioned by police
0:45
Is it time to bring a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister
0:49
Do you believe that, given that the Prime Minister's judgment is under serious question
0:54
Thank you. Thank you very much, Keith. So, you asked about getting the social media companies to engage. I think that the tide
1:02
is turning. It's very clear that they have been lobbying hard to stop this from happening
1:09
If we can show a united front present a cross effort it quite important that this is cross so they know that there nowhere for them to turn I think we can actually start forcing them to think about how to implement this rather than saying it not workable It is workable
1:25
it is possible, and we don't need mandatory digital ID. There are loads of other ways
1:30
in order to create this. If we show the social media that this is where politics is going
1:36
there's no room for them to hide lobbying certain parties and so on. I think that they will be
1:40
forced to engage on the terms which the parents here have been trying to get them to do for so
1:45
long. On Lord Mandelson, I think the pictures of him being arrested yesterday will be a defining
1:53
moment in Keir Starmer's premiership. February 2025, Keir Starmer was, you know, calling him
1:58
you know, our Peter and saying what a wonderful man he is, despite everything that he knew about
2:03
Lord Mandelson. This comes back again to the Prime Minister's judgment, again and again
2:09
you know, multiple U-turns. I'm hoping that we can get him to U-turn on his social media policy
2:14
We've got him to U-turn on a few other things. So my next mission is to get him to U-turn
2:19
on the age limit for social media so we can bring this ban in for children, let adults do
2:25
what they want on social media. But children, we need to bring them off it. Thank you
