Sadly true. Kemi Badenoch worked as a software developer before going into parliament and has opposed this online safety bill [1]. She didn't make it into the running to lead the Conservative party but was popular among the party members.
Agred. Her "opposition" to it seems to extend to vaguely stating that it shouldn't "overreach". The cynic in me would suggest she's exploiting it to advance her image as an "anti-woke" campaigner. The phrase "we should not legislate against hurt feelings" is particularly strange in this context.
