So Angela Rayner taxes, the Online Safety Act, keeping the Two-Child Cap, appealing to a far right which will never vote for them.

Wikipedia has lost its court case with the UK government, essentially this means that big brother--sorry ofcom can decide whether Wikipedia should adhere to its age verification rules. I.e up to ofcom whether they censor Wikipedia (probably will)

I've spoken about this enough. The Online Safety Act will be overturned. Either by Labour getting scared of losing the 2029 election so they repeal as many unpopular laws as possible or by Reform getting in due to Labour's incompetence.

Ahead of Meta’s quarterly earnings report, CEO says his company aims to bring powerful AI into the lives of millions
Whether it’s poaching top talent away from competitors, acquiring AI startups or proclaiming that it will build data centers the size of Manhattan, Meta has been on a spending spree to boost its artificial intelligence capabilities for the better part of a month.

There's currently a petition to repeal the online safety act. While it's already reached its goal to be debated in Parliament, showing more support could help turn more people in Government around.
