Most likely reports of dumb shit conservative politicians have called for, wanting access to messaging. You can find the exact same proposals in the US, European Parliament, individual EU countries, and a load of other places.

Dumb, sure, but a proposal that always goes nowhere isn't a law, and it's certainly not England or even UK-specific.
