| 1625235359750582278 | This intimidation and harassment is wholly unacceptable. It's disgraceful that women with opinions are still targets for such behaviour. If they think this will deter @SorchaEastwood, they don't know her: she's as courageous as she's capable. She shouldn't have to be, though. https://t.co/3yUPJRq9Cb | 42 |
| 1625112697166606336 | Looking forward to @SorchaEastwood condemning this glorification of terrorists on an office sign of a sitting Sinn Fein MP. Will Sorcha condemn this which is located on an office which is meant to be capable of attracting all sections of the community? https://t.co/hKQ5W1PtX3 | 39 |
| 1625211729012527125 | Good on @allianceparty MLA Sorcha Eastwood @SorchaEastwood for speaking out about the ongoing abuse she is subjected to for daring to exist, doing her job, and having views. Sadly it follows a pattern many others are familiar with. The lies, distortion, and dangerous bile. | 37 |
| 1625110046160846848 | We don’t and never will support anyone being intimidated. Now that’s out of the way 👆will @SorchaEastwood condemn this 👇 which is located in a public space. Is there a place for this in society Sorcha? Is there a place for @moneillsf No Alternative? https://t.co/xtZID7AAyb | 35 |
| 1625148908203646977 | @SorchaEastwood Sorcha, you have the support of the vast majority of people on this. No one should face this type of intimidation. Stay strong, Northern Ireland needs public reps like you to move forward. Take care. | 29 |
| 1625112232236404736 | The unionist community do not support the intimidation of Sorcha Eastwood. This needs to be stated clearly by all unionist representatives. We do not want the paramilitaries to take control of our community. @SorchaEastwood @J_Donaldson_MP | 24 |

| 1625436302840668161 | Solidarity to @SorchaEastwood who's showing incredible bravery and fortitude. That she's being targeted in this way is sickening, but the attempts now to deny and belittle her experience are as shameful as they are familiar to women. | 15 |
