@alexnostromo @dustspeckgalaxy @niassembly @Justice_NI @allianceparty @News_Letter It's not for me to judge whether offences have been committed: that's for police, PPS and courts.

However, the purpose of the change is not to extend the range of speech covered, but to protect private conversation.

Political speech is already protected in law.

@alexnostromo @dustspeckgalaxy @niassembly @Justice_NI @allianceparty @News_Letter What you call "social crucifixion" is entirely separate to hate speech laws.

Trans inclusive people are also being abused, harassed, and smeared on here.

Neither is acceptable to me: I'd prefer civil exchange, which is nuanced and respectful.
