The prime minister Starmer has said he is “worried” about toxic masculine behaviour on social media influencing young men, and has spoken with Sir Gareth Southgate about the issue.

Sir Keir Starmer told BBC 5Live that the UK “may have a problem with boys and young men that we need to address”, and plans to discuss this further with the former England men’s football manager.

The PM’s comments come after Sir Gareth’s recent BBC lecture, in which he said “toxic influencers… trick young men”, and the fresh attention that popular new Netflix drama Adolescence has brought the issue.

The series shines a light on the corrosive impact of social media and misogynist influencers on some teenage boys.

The four-part series – which Sir Keir previously said he had been watching with his teenage children – follows a family whose lives are blown apart when their teenage son is arrested for killing a female classmate.

It also explores the hidden radicalisation of young boys through incel culture and the “manosphere” – a collection of websites that promote misogyny and hyper-masculinity.
