'It can't come quick enough' Minister Helen McEntee addresses fears around new hate speech laws

Helen McEntee suggested that there has been a "lot of misinformation" about the Hate Crime and Hate Speech legislation being spread online. She also defended the fact her bill does not define the word "hate". She argued that "if you have three different words that are used in a piece of legislation to define hate, you then have to prove that all three of those acts or those feelings were pointed towards this person". Ms McEntee said that her bill will "improve" legislation already in place Questions about the impacts of the legislation are also growing in Fianna Fáil. At a parliamentary party meeting several politicians said that they had not been fully informed about what the bill would entail. __________________________________________________ Have you downloaded the Irish Mirror app?
