Online harassment of women putting them off political careers – Fitzgerald

The online harassment and abuse of women is putting them off going into politics.  That’s the view of former justice minister and now MEP Frances Fitzgerald.

MEPs are investigating how laws could be introduced to counter such abuse. Frances Fitzgerald says the situation is getting worse.
