Women should be able to report wolf-whistling, catcalling and unwanted attention on public transport to the police as hate crimes, according to Grimsby’s MP.

Labour front-bench politician Melanie Onn MP has secured a debate in Parliament on Wednesday, March 7, to call for misogyny to be made a hate crime .

The town’s MP said women should not have to put up with unwanted behaviour in public and argues that a law change would make women more confident in reporting such behaviours.

Does she have a point or is it another case of socialism gone mad?
