Naomi Long has received a groundswell of support in the wake of yet another series of vile attacks on social media.
But while welcoming a raft of positive replies backing her in the face of relentless online abuse, the Alliance leader has called on Twitter to “up their game” in terms of how they police the platform.
Mrs Long tweeted on Saturday that in the space of 72 hours she had been subjected to “squalid and misogynistic” messages. The tweet has been seen almost 900,000 times and replied to with messages of support from across the political spectrum.
