Extreme misogyny will be treated as a form of extremism under new government plans to tackle radicalisation online.
Home secretary Yvette Cooper has pledged to crack down on people “pushing harmful and hateful beliefs” and to “kickstart” a new approach to fighting extremism.
Ms Cooper has ordered a review of Britain’s counter-extremism strategy under plans to combat the radicalisation of young men online. The analysis will look at hatred towards women as one of the ideologies examined, along with Islamist and far-right beliefs among others.
The project is being carried out to provide analysis and recommendations on how to “tackle the threat posed by extremist ideologies”. It will inform a new government counterextremism strategy to respond to growing and changing patterns across the UK.
