Maybe because in this context that is less relevant?
In her own words:
"No one would listen and I was determined – and that was it, I ruined my career. I stopped making films and I started campaigning for children to be given a fair deal online. Cut to 10 years later, this is what I do.”
- mcv 4y agoHow is her peerage title more relevant? Her movie career is the most notable thing about her other than this law.
- Mindwipe 4y agoBecause she used her peerage to push similar laws in the UK as an unelected member of the Lords - the Online Safety Bill and Age Appropriate Design Code were both significantly pushed through and amended by her as an unelected peer, and she used her position on the Bill Committee for the Online Safety Bill to prevent witnesses who might have criticised the problems caused by age verification from appearing. Her peerage is directly relevant to this legislation.
- m-p-3 4y agoThose laws are still put in place by elected members of Parliament, she just helps writing them down. The matter that is becomes law is not up to her exclusively, this isn't a dictatorship.
- Mindwipe 4y agoNo, she literally voted on them as part of the second chamber. Nobody said that the fact the matter became law was down to her exclusively, but the fact she is a Baroness is directly relevant to the passage of the legislation in the UK and therefore her attempts to export it, much more so than her film career.
- petesergeant 4y agoHow on earth do you figure her peerage is relevant?
- pdpi 4y agoOk, so describe her as a "children's rights activist".
