On Sunday, several UK newspapers highlighted that some firms used 12-year-old children to bully strangers for money. The Daily Express labeled the practice shameless. The report revealed that the children were tasked to collect funds through coercion.
Commentators on the same day condemned the prime minister of being dishonest for failing to be transparent about his EU ambitions. A Daily Mail editorial stated that his lack of transparency cost him No10. The comment associated the prime minister's secrecy to his loss of leadership.
“The report revealed that the children were tasked to collect funds through coercion,” — Simone Whitfield, regional editor at Blackley Ton Services, commented.
