So the UK went fascist as well? What a shame!
And this is the calm before the storm when people turn on Labour and vote Reform. Then the UK will have have a proper Russia-backed Nazi in charge, instead of just an authoritarian, reactionary potato in a suit.

So you're pro climate change, pro dismantling the nhs, pro tax cuts for the rich and rises for the poor.

Have they tried doing anything then?
I've seen more dynamic corpses than a Ed Davey
Brit here: GET A VPN.
Fuck this place.
Dissonance detected, deploying the state nanny squad.
That was to be expected. It's just unclear how dark the dark times are going to be. What are they going to do that so much control of the population is needed?
Long ago, I made the observation that only small countries can have a reasonably humane system in place. The larger the country, the more likely it is to be a dictatorship of sorts. Obviously, history plays a significant role too, but population size is probably more than just a coincidence.
I conclude that Yorkshire should become an independent country
Huh uk and America racing to the bottom it seems.
I can't wait until our government in Australia enters the race. It's not far off given the social media ban for under 16s. They will want id from everyone to prove otherwise I'm sure.
are there actually ads targeting children right now?
If so they are inneffective. My children already know to avoid the UK.
;)
Edit: Just kidding. Love you guys.

AFAIK it's not all promoting of vpns that prohibited now, so as long as you don't mention you can use it to get around age verification you should be fine.
The UK so far warns to promote the use of VPNs when deliberately targeting UK children, bu this is bad enough and the UK risks to go the road of only 13 countries so far where VPN use is prohibited or restricted, and these are dictatorships and autocracies (Belarus, Iraq, North Korea, Turkmenistan, Myanmar, China, Russia, Iran, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Oman, Egypt, and Uganda).
VPNs: it's not just porn, it's piracy too!
