Ireland’s premier, Micheál Martin, has said “momentum is building” in Europe for a ban on children’s social media use.

The European Parliament President, Roberta Metsola, praised Ireland for its “leadership” on social media protection but said there is a “huge need for something to be done for our kids online”.
