SDLP leader condemns Cara Hunter online abuse

“The abuse that was levelled at Cara Hunter and others was over the fact that we ran a candidate in East Derry,” he told BBC Radio Foyle’s North West Today programme.

“To be clear there was no approach, no offer, no conversation from Sinn Féin to myself or anyone in the leadership of the SDLP about us not running in East Derry,” he said.

In a statement to BBC News NI, Sinn Féin’s candidate Kathleen McGurk said there was “no place for personal abuse against political representatives or anyone in our society”.

Mr Eastwood said Ms Hunter was “fine” and “very resilient”.

However, he said there “is a nastiness sometimes in our politics, particularly here, particularly coming from one source”.
