Backlash against Keir Starmer's plan to show the Netflix drama Adolescence in schools has grown after more than 1,500 teachers and parents signed a letter saying the series is not suitable as an educational resource.

Adolescence, the new teen drama, is pro-censorship propaganda, partly paid for by the state, that is now being seized upon by Labour MPs as ‘evidence’ that we need more online censorship.
