Farage demands apology in row over online safety
Daily Post
|July 30, 2025
A ROW has broken out between Labour and Reform after the technology secretary accused Nigel Farage of being on the side of “extreme pornographers” and “Jimmy Savile” over his party's pledge to scrap the Online Safety Act.
-
Mr Farage labelled the comments “disgusting” and called on Peter Kyle to apologise, after the Cabinet minister said the Reform leader is “on the side of turning the clock back” to when “strangers can get in touch via messaging apps with children”.
Former Reform chairman Zia Yusuf claimed the remarks are “one of the most outrageous and disgusting things a politician has said in the political arena”.
Under rules that came into effect on July 25, online platforms must take steps to prevent children accessing harmful content such as pornography or material that encourages suicide.
