Daily Mirror – Our chance to save young lives
The Daily Mirror says the father of a girl who took her own life due to harmful web content has warned delays to an online crackdown will cost lives.
Molly Russell’s father Ian urged the next Prime Minister to “finish the job” in strengthening online safety laws. Molly, from Harrow, in north west London, saw more than 2,000 harmful posts about suicide, self-harm and depression in the last six months of her life. Mr Russell said “almost astonishingly, and really quite tragically, too little has changed” since Molly died in November 2017 – despite promises from politicians. “In some respects, the risks for teens have actually got worse,” he said.
