The Internet has been open for people of all ages for years, with many using it for various reasons. One of them is social media, which the British Prime Minister wants to ban for teenagers under 16. PM Rishi Sunak claims that the ban is required as he believes that social media will be harmful to them. 

Manchester United icon, Gary Neville, strongly disagreed with the Prime Minister. Neville in the past has opposed examinations as a method to assess students as well. In a tweet he opposed PM Sunak’s views, saying it was impossible to stop kids from accessing social media. 

Rishi Sunak is looking to ban kids from social media until theyre 16. It’s not enforceable and it’s not realistic at all. Why do they always take the short cut.

He instead believed that the use of social media should be taught to them in schools. Neville claimed the student should be taught how to access social media safely. He further added that social media is a way to help improve young children in communication skills in a smart environment.

Digital is at the heart of everything we do and Social media can be a positive way to demonstrate our own personalities and character. We always look at the negative consequences of it ( which do need some looking at ) but we can’t stop it. Let’s get our kids good at it and improve the communication skills of them in a smart environment.

Gary Neville disappointed by Anthony Martial’s constant starts 

With Rasmus Hojlund failing to score a single goal in the Premier League in the season, Erik ten Hag decided to start Anthony Martial ahead of the 20-year-old. Unfortunately, that move has also failed with Martial also failing to score goals.

Former Manchester United icon, Gary Neville, has expressed his displeasure with Martial’s constant starts, baffled by his stats for Manchester United. He was also unhappy with Hojlund getting benched for the Frenchman. 

The reality is there is no way he should be leading the line in any competition. They have the young lad Hojlund who has real promise but they need experience up alongside him. If he came into United and his partner was Cole, Yorke or Cantona you would see a sensation as the pressure would be off him. I feel for him a bit.

Manchester United will now travel to Anfield to face Liverpool. The last time they won in Liverpool’s home ground was in 2016, when they managed a 1-0 win. Since then they have failed to score a goal as well. Their previous visit saw a 7-0 hammering as well and going into the current fixture, it looks like Liverpool are still favorites to win.
