Baroness Jenny Jones has suggested that men should have a 6PM curfew in response to the abduction and murder of Sarah Everard in London last week.
I think I'm stating the obvious when I suggest that this "peer" is clearly platforming for women's safety, but the debate and storm that has been whipped up by this case I do find troubling.
I agree that everyone should be safe to walk the streets but this is a one off, terrible, tragic incident that while the MET police have serious questions to answer, no one else could have forseen.
I know she is now saying that it was toung in cheek and she has gained the reaction she was after but I don't see this as a helpful way of addressing the real issues of women not feeling or being safe.
Women need to be empowered and enabled to do whatever fudge they want by robust management of these filthy deviants. I won't get into the debate of how you manage them other than to say what we do now, isn't enough.
We have to do more to make everyone safe, our society should not tolerate this or any other antisocial behaviours and the authorities need to be empowered, resourced and supported to do whatever is necessary for us all to live safely.
Sarah Everard: Baroness who suggested 6pm curfew for men says she wanted to make a point
"Nobody makes a fuss when, for example, the police suggest women stay home. But when I suggest it, men are up in arms," she says.
