New laws expected to come into force in 2025 are under spotlight after online planning of far-right riots in England

The Online Safety Act is back in the spotlight after a week of violence driven in part by far-right groups coordinating online, using a mixture of services including Telegram, TikTok and X.
“There need to be amendments to the Online Safety Act,” the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, told the Guardian on Thursday. “I think it’s not fit for purpose.”
