Labour (Co-op) — Bathgate and Linlithgow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2025

Debate

Violence against Women and Girls: Pornography Prostitution

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for securing this debate. Does she agree that the normalisation of violent porn can mean that these horrors come out of the screen and into real life, particularly when defence counsels argue that consent was given to crimes of strangulation? Does she welcome, as I do, the Government’s steps to make strangulation an aggravating factor when sentencing for murder?
