Well I'm glad you are so confident that HM government are going to protect your children with a concept of "extremism" that coincides with your own. And it's too bad you can't monitor or guide your own children's internet exposure, or settle for an optional filter from the ISP or software.
What about your neighbors, though? Adults have a legitimate interest in learning what is going on in the world, and reviewing the whole range of opinion. If A is entitled to block B's access to communications that A disapproves, is B then entitled to block A as well? Can you not imagine any harm from living in a mental bubble of only what the government wants you to think?

Personally I don't understand how the UK electorate can be so stupid, but whatever, here it is: https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/the-internet-and-pornography-prime-minister-calls-for-action https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/the-internet-and-porn...
