Dominic Raab confuses meaning of misogyny at Conservative conference
Justice secretary Dominic Raab appeared to suggest misogyny can be “a woman against a man”, as he was challenged over the government’s approach to tackling harassment and violence against women.
Boris Johnson has ruled out making misogyny a hate crime – arguing it would overload the justice system and make the fight against rape and domestic violence harder.
Raab told BBC Breakfast: “So I think insults and of course misogyny is absolutely wrong – whether it’s a man against a woman, or a woman against a man.”
