This is a different ban, it seems the Lords want to Amend the schools bill, I think the #HouseOfCommons want to bring in a different Law for this.

#Australia recently passed a law #banning children #under16 from #socialmedia, sparking global interest. The #UK is considering a similar ban, with the House of Lords expected to vote on an amendment to the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. #France is also debating bills to restrict social media access for under-15s, while the US is seeing interest at the state level. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/18/uk-australia-style-under-16s-social-media-ban.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news
