UK to Classify Extreme Misogyny as Terrorism Under Yvette Cooper's Plan
Aug 18, 2024, 07:17 AM
The UK government, led by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, plans to classify extreme misogyny as a form of terrorism. This initiative is part of a broader review of the country's counter-terrorism strategy aimed at addressing violence against women and girls. The proposal includes measures requiring teachers to report students suspected of extreme misogyny to the Prevent program. The move reflects concerns about the radicalization of young men influenced by misogynistic figures. This approach follows recent riots in the UK, prompting a crackdown on harmful beliefs.
