Ofcom codes of practice
"Codes of practice issued by Ofcom to be made legally binding on social media platforms"
I have to admit I am somewhat concerned that codes of practice issued for time to time by Ofcom would be legally binding without proper democratic oversight or debate. Yes, I know that our lords and masters in the Houses of Parliament can be ignorant and stupid at times, and maybe Ofcom is peopled with exceptionally astute and wise individuals, but to make any code of practice legally binding is surely the responsibility of parliament?
