The Gazette
|December 19, 2025
THE full force of the state will be unleashed to tackle violence against women and girls (VAWG), the Government has said, as it announced its new strategy.
-
Home Office minister Jess Phillips listed a number of measures, including making the UK “one of the hardest places for children to access harmful content and misogynistic influences online”.
She said so-called “nudification” tools, which allow users to strip clothes from those in photographs, will be banned.
Other measures include new interventions in schools when pupils display “harmful” behaviour, changes to the curriculum and new training for staff.
Meanwhile, every police force in England and Wales will have a specialist rape and sexual offences team by 2029.
