And while women can be violent towards men, this is specifically about the strong connection between misogynistic comments & violent crimes against women by men.
And you miss the point- who defines what hate speech is? Not even the PM could define it when asked. That is the reason this legislation has been peeled back so far. Bad laws create bad precedents in court.
BTW I find it ironic that someone so against abuse and violence towards women previously defended someone charged with sexual assault. I guess any port in a storm to try and prove a point?
