Rayner at PMQs: 'We've had more strikes under this government's watch than any time before'.

Before:

This is an excellent speech by Rishi Sunak. I hope European leaders get the message and follow his lead: gov.uk/government/spe…

We’re taking defence spending to 2.5% of GDP.

The biggest strengthening of our national defence for a generation.

Labour have sniped about our childcare expansion for months, saying it wouldn't work.

We've now delivered the first stage of it, with 200,000 benefitting from 15 hrs a week childcare for their 2-yr-olds.

And Labour are once again exposed as having no plan, no policy and no idea

Last week we announced new laws to crack down on degrading sexually explicit deepfakes as part of our ongoing determination to end violence against against women and girls.

In response, two of the biggest deepfake sites have blocked access to UK users.👇

Delighted to have hosted Minister Laura Farris MP to discuss how we can #JoinForcesAgainstStalking this #NSAW2024 .

We welcome the government's announcement that the application threshold for Stalking Protection Orders will be lowered from the criminal to the civil threshold.

Stalking Protection Orders are a crucial part of the police’s public protection armoury and effective in the prevention & interruption of this crime.

We are making them easier for police to apply for, to give victims the strongest protection possible

Very supportive of this brilliant campaign that recognises the environmental significance and rare beauty of the North Wessex Downs AONB & hope that Natural England will agree

Excellent

💥This is fantastic news!!

The week we announced the Government is clamping down on deepfakes, the scumbags behind the worlds largest deepfake website have suspended access to users in the U.K.

Good riddance!

Having hit the milestone of 150,000 children benefitting from this Government's expansion of childcare at the beginning of the month, we are delighted to see more than 195,000 2-yr-olds now receiving their 15 hours.

A lamentably irresponsible response by the Liberal Democrats to Dr Hillary Cass’ landmark report: the most detailed and comprehensive research ever conducted into the treatment of children with puberty blockers.

No wonder they’ve deleted it

'98% of it is pornographic and 99% of the subject matter is a woman.'

Creating deepfake porn is to be a criminal offence after our investigation.

Safeguarding Minister Laura Farris tells Cathy Newman deepfake porn is 'inherently misogynistic' and explains the new law.

Quite right for Rishi Sunak to point out that he consistently and correctly warned about Liz Truss's policies.

He can also claim to have been the person in government most worried about inflation even before the invasion of Ukraine.

Well deserved economic credibility.

👀 (plus an interview with the minister behind the law change) on Channel 4 News at 7. #deepfakes #AI

Degrading. Violating. Dehumanising.

Sexually explicit ‘deepfakes’ – made without the consent of the victim – cause real-life trauma.

Presenter and campaigner Jess Davies explains why a new law change criminalising their creation is so important

gov.uk/government/new…

I welcome news that the creation of sexually explicit ‘deepfakes’ will become a criminal offence.

This content has a significant impact on victims and must be taken seriously.

There also must be a duty on digital platforms to proactively challenge all harmful online behaviours.

💥 We are clamping down on deepfakes

Anyone who manipulates the image of a real person into a sexually-explicit deepfake without their consent, will be committing a crime.

It is pernicious, inherently misogynistic conduct & I spoke to Kay Burley about why we are taking action

Very hard to see what is supposed to be unconservative about the Tobacco and Vaping Bill. It's a gradual long term reform that doesn't affect anyone now smoking, protects young people from a dangerous addictive drug, supports the NHS and saves the taxpayer and society a fortune.

I’m joined by justice minister Laura Farris for the latest episode of The Spectator Women with Balls

She talks to me about interning for Hilary Clinton, the changing workplace + her attitude on the ECHR 👇 🎧
