Irish Politician Thinks Facebook Is Bad For Health

This is one of those “only in Ireland” type stories.

Irish MEP Nessa Childers has decided to go on the “war path” against Facebook (and probably other social media sites) as they’re supposedly bad for our mental health!

You can read Ms Childers’ full release on the subject here – and no, it’s not April 1st

Factual note. Childers claims that there are over 400 thousand users of Facebook in Ireland. The true figure is much higher, so you’d have to wonder where she pulled that figure from.
