Caroline Voaden

Liberal Democrat — South Devon

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 April 2026

Debate

Violence against Women and Girls

Contribution

A quarter of female teachers have been subjected to misogynistic abuse in the classroom in the last year. They report feeling humiliated and violated, and we know that impressionable young boys are targeted on social media with algorithms that pump misogynistic content to them. Will the Minister push the Government to act as swiftly as possible in restricting access to social media for young boys, so that we can educate them on how to treat women and girls before the manosphere influencers get to them first?
