Starmer backs calls for Netflix’s Adolescence to be shown in schools

Sir Keir Starmer has backed calls for Netflix series Adolescence to be shown in Britain’s parliament and in schools.

“This violence carried out by young men, influenced by what they see online, is abhorrent and we have to tackle it,” Sir Keir told the House of Commons.

The show explores topical issues including incel culture, misogyny and the online “manosphere”.
