However, this freedom cannot be an excuse to cause harm or spread hatred and a line is crossed when disagreement mutates into intimidation, violence or abuse. The Government recognises that rising levels of intimidation in public life can stop talented people, particularly women and those from minority backgrounds, from standing for public office. In April this year, the Government published the Online Harms White Paper, which sets out our plans for world-leading legislation to make the UK the safest place in the world to be online.</p> answering member constituency North East Somerset answering member printed Mr Jacob Rees-Mogg question first answered 08/10/2019 16:02:42 answering member 4099 label Biography information for Mr Jacob Rees-Mogg
