The National Police Chiefs’ Council published a report on violence against women and girls on Tuesday, framing it as a national emergency.
Online influencers like Andrew Tate could radicalise young men and boys into extreme misogyny in the same way terrorists draw in their followers, a senior police officer has said.
Deputy Chief Constable Maggie Blyth, national lead for policing violence against women and girls (VAWG), said the influencing of young boys online is “quite terrifying”.
Talk presenter Alex Phillips joins Talk’s Kevin O’Sullivan to discuss this further.
