This makes me feel like they were in a bind here. The so called “online safety bill” was a tory concoction that took years to pass through the courts because of how invasive it is and how anyone could easily bypass it.
If labour want to stop it, they’ll be accused of not wanting to protect children.
Whatever anyone thinks of labour, what option do they have other than to let it play out as the spectacular failure it was always going to be and making sure everyone knows who’s fault that was afterwards?

I doubt their corpo overlords would allow a VPN ban considering the amount of companies that use them.

It would be trivial for them to write it so it bans it for citizen use but is allowed for corporate and government use. The people have no rights anymore
