"It has a huge impact on us as well because it's difficult for us to see it unravel."Det Ch Insp Smith said online platforms need to do far more to prevent paedophiles making contact with children.

He said: "Whilst we don't want to place the onus of responsibility on the child, we have to educate our children to be safe online and just like the physical world, one of the key aspects of that is that you shouldn't be engaging with someone you don't know."I do believe it should be a lot harder for a child to be able to engage with a random person online."There's responsibility on tech, there's responsibility on government, there's responsibility on the police to make the online world safer.

"But there has to be an understanding that this is a global worldwide problem and therefore we need as a society to change the way we view the internet."A few hours after they arrived, the detectives led the 43-year-old man out of the house in handcuffs to be driven to a police station in Falkirk.

It is the start of a long legal journey which will eventually establish guilt or innocence.

The man was charged in connection with sexual communications and will appear in court at a later date.Tony Blair, who opened the doors in 2004, recognised this in his autobiography A Journey. The "tendency for those on the left was to equate concern about immigration with underlying racism. This was a mistake. The truth is that immigration, unless properly controlled, can cause genuine tensions… and provide a sense in the areas into which migrants come in large numbers that the community has lost control of its own future… Across Europe, right wing parties would propose tough controls on immigration. Left-wing parties would cry: Racist. The people would say: You don't get it."

Sir Keir has felt some of that heat from his own side since launching the White Paper. In response to his warning about Britain becoming an "island of strangers", the left-wing Labour MP Nadia Whittome accused the prime minister of "mimic[king] the scaremongering of the far-right".The Economist, too, declared that Britain's decades of liberal immigration had been an economic success - but a political failure.

There is a world of difference between Keir Starmer and Enoch Powell. Powell believed Britain was "literally mad, piling up its own funeral pyre" and that the country was bound to descend into civil war. Sir Keir says he celebrates the diversity of modern Britain.But even if his plan to cut migration works, net migration will continue to flow at the rate of around 300,000 a year. Sir Keir's plan runs the risk of being neither fish nor fowl: too unambitious to win back Reform voters; but illiberal enough to alienate some on the left.
