Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what steps the Government is taking to tackle the rise in online misogyny.

Abusive or threatening behaviour – whoever the target - is totally unacceptable. As set out in the Violence Against Women and Girls prevention strategy, my department, with the Home Office, has established a cross-government working group to develop proactive responses to online misogyny. We have also provided new funding for the Revenge Porn Helpline.
