Business of the House

Proceeding contribution from Andrea Leadsom (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 March 2018. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.

My hon. Friend makes a very good point and gives a very good description of those who abuse others anonymously online. We expect all social media platforms to make it easy for users to choose not to receive anonymous posts. The Prime Minister has recently announced that we will introduce a social media code of practice to address conduct that is bullying or insulting to users. It will provide guidance for platforms and will cover anonymous abuse.
