Nigel Farage has accused the Government of 'hiding behind children while attacking free speech' as he continued a bitter row with Labour over online safety laws.
The Reform UK leader reacted with fury on Tuesday after Technology Secretary Peter Kyle claimed he was on the side of 'people like Jimmy Savile'.
Mr Kyle's outburst came after Reform pledged to scrap the Online Safety Act. Mr Farage has also urged people to sign a petition demanding the legislation is repealed.
Writing in The Telegraph, Mr Kyle doubled down on his attack on Mr Farage by saying proposals to overturn the Act made his 'blood boil'.
The Technology Secretary argued repealing the legislation would benefit 'disgusting predators who contact children and groom them online'.
