Look at how Reform UK politicians actually voted, please. They won't repeal the Online Safety Act: they're populist authoritarians in waiting, and not even particularly good at hiding it.

Do you have an example, please?

I wasn't aware that any Reform MPs were in power back in 2023 when the Online Safety Act passed through parliament?

I thought I remembered a current Reform UK MP voting in favour of something to do with the Online Safety Act, in the current parliament – but it couldn't have been the debate on the current parliamentary petition, because that hasn't happened yet.

I have since had another look. Lee Anderson was in power (as a Conservative), and abstained from https://votes.parliament.uk/votes/commons/division/1416#notr... – though I'm not sure what this vote was actually on, and this doesn't support my original claim (that Reform MPs voted in favour of the Online Safety Act). Perhaps someone with more understanding of British Parliamentary Procedure could look through the relevant votes and see whether my claim was actually correct.

Interesting. I've done some digging and found that the division you linked to was a procedural vote (that is, it was to discuss timetable and structure for how the bill passes through parliament, as opposed to the content of the Online Safety Bill itself).

Also, since there were zero "No" votes from Tories, it could be that the party whip imposed conditions on Tory MPs.
