Wolf-whistling 'to be made illegal' in the UK ... What will the PC Brigade want banned next?

International Women's Day: Wolf-whistling 'to be made illegal' in the UK  ... What will the PC Brigade want banned next?




By Ian Dunt

Wolf-whistling will technically be made illegal under European laws set to be signed by David Cameron today.

The prime minister chose International Women's Day to sign a Council of Europe convention promising "necessary legislative measures” against anyone committing “verbal, non-verbal or physical sexual harassment”.

            
The convention outlaws anything which violates "the dignity of a person, in particular when creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment”.
