British Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced an upcoming total ban on social media for under-16s , saying the platforms make minors miserable , expose them to harmful content and are designed to be addictive .

The ban will affect platforms such as Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X , but will exclude messaging services such as WhatsApp.

Starmer has expressed his willingness to pass a specific measure by the end of December, to allow the ban to come into force in spring next year.
