Home Secretary Yvette Cooper emphasized that the counterterrorism strategy will focus on mapping and monitoring extremist trends like misogyny, Islamism, and far-right extremism to effectively direct interventions.
Cooper noted that around 460 individuals face charges related to the recent UK protests, where false information on a knife attack fueled riots, showing how disinformation can incite violence.
The rise in misogyny has been linked to incel culture, where groups of men unjustly direct their anger toward women, with tragic incidents linked to this ideology still occurring.
Research from the Femicide Census indicates that misogyny has severe consequences, with a woman being killed by a man every three days in the UK, highlighting an urgent need for effective strategies.
