The day after they appeared at Leeds Magistrates Court, the elected mayor of West Yorkshire released a video directed at misogynists.  Labour's Tracy Brabin proudly announced that misogynistic comments are now being recorded as 'hate crimes' on her patch, which includes Batley and Dewsbury.  She says this is part of her pledge to 'prioritise the safety of women and girls'.

Really, Tracy?  42 people have just been charged with actual rape of girls and you're banging on about hurty words!  The timing and content of this video is disgraceful and insensitive.


It's not as if this was an isolated case on Brabin's patch.  The Huddersfield grooming case drew 41 convictions in relation to 22 victims.  Same old Labour, covering up for Muslim paedophiles and rapists.
