Kemi Badenoch has told GB News that there must be "cross-party effort" to ban social media for under 16s.
Speaking to GB News Reporter Keith Bays, the Tory leader said: "I think that the tide is turning. It's very clear that they have been lobbying hard to stop this from happening. If we can show a united front presenting cross-party effort, it's quite important that this is cross-party, so they know that there's nowhere for them to turn.
"I think we can actually start forcing them to think about how to implement this rather than saying it's not workable. It is workable, it is possible, and we don't need mandatory digital ID. There are loads of other ways in order to create this.
"If we show the social media companies that this is where politics is going, there's no room for them to hide. I think that they will be forced to engage on the terms which the parents here have been trying to get them to do for so long."
