They're going after Andrew Tate. They're also going to go after the manosphere, incels, MGTOW, anti-feminism and the lifestyle choice of bachelorhood. Lumping them all in as "extreme". In effect, your position in society and whether you are deemed worthy of liberty will be deemed by how women see you if this proposal becomes law. If you ain't married, co-habiting (common law married) or slaying on the dating apps, you should be concerned for the future.
Being an adult male without a girlfriend for a longer than normal period of time will now be seen as radicalised extremism by the UK Government. Dating apps, already facing the prospect of having to screen out men for online safety now also face being told to report individual men who make women feel creeped out, offended or rejected by any of them to Prevent or the Police.
I did warn come September, you ain't seen nothing yet. They're using the recent unrest to bring in draconian laws to shut down groups they despise such as the far-right and bachelors.

I can't wait for the new "The worst she can say is 'no'" memes with men getting arrested for their bad pick-up lines on Bumble and Tinder.
Ironically, one of the things that radio commentators were asking for was for the state to intervene in unattractive men (a.k.a. "creeps") asking out women, approaching women or being in the presence of women in a public place.
We know of the "halo effect" where attractive individuals get preferential treatment and can get away with much more compared to their unattractive peers. Ultimately what they are asking for is the removal of unattractive men from society under the belief their existence incites terror and therefore can be classed as (extreme) misogyny.
The other thing they called for is the abolition of pornography as you'd expect from such commentators on both sides of the political spectrum.
So we have a society that denounces men for not approaching women under the slogan of "you miss 100% of the shots you don't make" while denouncing men for approaching women if they are don't meet attractiveness and social status. We're going to create more radicalised single men in the same way that jailing anyone deemed "far right" will radicalise them.
