There is no “right to safety”.
We need to challenge this idea because it makes no sense.
If everyone had a “right to safety”, the logical conclusion would be to lock us all in padded cells for life.
Obviously you’d have to separate every family, too. Otherwise, how could you guarantee that family members would be “safe” from one another?
Life involves risks. We can only manage them, not eliminate them. And an overly powerful state is itself a serious risk.

So they hate young people not in work but now they want to make every workplace go through the council to hire first-time workers as if all those workplaces will not just refuse to hire 16-year olds because of the hassle?

So, let me get this straight, they're planning on cutting PIP for 16 year olds to 'incentivise them to work' while also make it such a pain to hire a 16 year old that no employer will wanna bother. Why the government's entire policy just hating teenagers?

ECHR explicitly has ruled that personal devices are a part of a citizens private sphere so mandated scanning is a explicit humans right violation, crazy that a politician is just so casually disregarding human rights, supporting this genuinely should be career ending
That's why I'm backing @ijm and @jessphillips in urging the Government to extend device-level safeguards to detect and block child sexual abuse material – including live-streamed exploitation – on all devices.

Everyone has the right to not have spyware on their device, especially spyware that won’t work since paedophiles use dark-web sites that won’t be affected by said spyware.
Don’t punish the innocent because of the guilty, resource the police and fight the guilty that way.
Hahaha Julia’s been sacked

Look at this pair of absolute numpties trying to make the Piddington issue all about themselves.
