"Madam President, in Ireland in the last few days we have had two deaths linked to a phenomenon on Facebook called ‘Neknomination’. I am not sure of the translation of that to other languages but it is basically where someone dares someone to drink a pint of alcohol and takes a video of it. In that game, people are going ever further and taking ever greater risks. I want to read the comment of the brother of one of those who died in recent days. ‘My young 19-year-old brother died tonight in the middle of his nomination. He thought he had to try and beat the competition and after he necked his pint he jumped into the river. If people have any decency and respect they will refrain from any more of this stupid neck nomination.’ This is a phenomenon on Facebook, so it is global. Ireland has just had a terrible, terrible two cases linked to it. Facebook needs to respond and we as adults need to act."@en1
