Marie Goldman

Liberal Democrat — Chelmsford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2026

Debate

Violence against Women and Girls: Smart Glasses

Contribution

The hon. Member makes an important point, and I agree, but we have to go after those who promote and normalise this behaviour—by which I mean the online platforms. They are essentially broadcasters. Reaching a mass audience, for example through television, used to mean having to have a broadcasting licence and being held to a high standard; but the online platforms get away with promoting disgusting, misogynistic content over and over again. People see it, so it becomes normalised.
