Tory MP Dashes Over Labour's AI Crackdown on Elon Musk's X
Tory MP angrily condemns Labour's AI crackdown on Elon Musk’s X in Commons.
On 12 January 2026, a moment in the House of Commons saw a Tory MP erupt with criticism after Labour’s shadow technology secretary, Liz Kendall, announced a new crackdown on AI‑generated sexual images on Elon Musk’s X platform. The memo from the Shadow Cabinet, released at 18:45 GMT, called for stricter controls over user‑generated content and increased penalties for non‑compliance. The MP’s on‑air outburst, recorded at 18:47, drew wide media attention, sparking debate over the balance between platform regulation and free expression. Labour’s move follows previous campaigns to curb harmful content, while the Tory response highlighted intra‑party tensions over technology policy and the role of AI in media.
