Angela Rayner criticized Nigel Farage's intention to abolish the Online Safety Act, warning that this could lead to a rise in revenge porn and harm young women. Labour's campaign against Farage includes advertisements linking him with controversial figures such as Andrew Tate. Farage's Reform UK party contends that the Act represents censorship, despite support for measures against intimate image abuse. Rayner emphasized the dangers of scrapping the Act, highlighting its role in preventing intimate image abuse, a crime with severe social implications.
Nigel Farage risks failing a generation of young women with his dangerous and irresponsible plans to scrap online safety laws. Scrapping safeguards and having no viable alternative plan in place to halt the floodgates of abuse that could open is an appalling dereliction of duty.
Intimate image abuse is a devastating crime and contributes to a vile misogynistic culture on social media that we know translates into physical spaces too.
