Author Peter Lloyd has branded Labour's crackdown on misogyny as an "Orwellian attack on free speech" and "sexist" in a furious rant on GB News.
His comments left his debating partner Joanna Jarjue gobsmacked, as she asked him "How can you even say that?"
It comes as the Home Office has announced that misogyny should be treated as extremism as a new review is being undertaken.
Speaking on GB News, Peter Lloyd said: "I think it's absolutely an Orwellian attack on free speech and I think it's a completely sexist move by this Labour Government.

"Firstly, why should only misogyny be classed as a hate crime? Why not misandry? According to the ONS, men are 70 per cent of all homicide victims year after year.
"But there are no Government initiatives to tackle that. That is sexist. It's another example of two-tier justice under Keir Starmer. Secondly, who in the Labour Party is even going to be able to define what extreme misogyny is? Those clowns can't even define what a woman is."

He added: "I would say there are much bigger fish to fry in this country. The terror threat in the UK is currently noted as substantial. That means another terrorist attack is very likely."
Entrepreneur and social commentator Joanna Jarjue was shocked at the comments from the author and said that she was offended.
She said: "How dare the other commentators say that we've got bigger fish to fry, when we've got two million women a year subject to violence by men. And this starts somewhere. It is very rich for a man to be sitting there saying we must protect our free speech. If you don't act in a particular way that crosses the line towards women, then you've got no problem whatsoever with any legislation.
"I don't understand why we're minimising this when we actually have women suffering at the hands of men and we're actually seeing an epidemic of misogyny and women dying."

PAHe later responded to her: "I am sorry if it bursts your bubble, but women are not special. They do not deserve special laws. They should be treated equally, but so should men. You do not deserve your own laws."
She fumed back: "Why do you think you should just be able to keep your ego and say whatever you want to a woman?
"So you want to basically open yourself up and just be free to say whatever you want with the woman without about a woman without having any accountability. Is that what you're saying?"
He said: "Free speech is the bedrock of Western civilisation. People like you, commie feminists, want to shut it down because you don't like criticism and you want to police men."
When asked by what changes she would like to see implemented, she said: "What I'm talking about is that we've got some key figures right now who are really big on the Internet like Andrew Tate.
"Some people have made a mockery and talked about women and Tate has even said allegedly things like he's entitled to his female partner's body.
"He allegedly also said that one of the reasons why he moved to Romania was because the police force was lenient when it comes to rape charges there. So I'm just saying that there are certain things that we really need to make sure of, because we've got such a massive influence, especially on young boys.
"And actually now the latest reports have been saying that there's been a massive uptick in younger boys now committing certain crimes towards women."
