The European Parliament backs the campaign introducing Coco’s Law.

Parliament has formally backed a campaign to introduce the Irish anti-cyber bullying ‘Coco’s Law’ across the EU.

Coco’s Law was introduced in Ireland in 2020 in response to the tragic death by suicide of 21-year-old Nicole ‘Coco’ Fox in 2018 after a sustained cyberbullying campaign against her.

When @JackieFox21 came to the European Parliament calling to make #cyberbullying an EU crime, we didn't hesitate for a second in supporting her fight.
Take a glimpse of 'It's Time' and follow her story.

Since Ireland passed #CocosLaw and made #cyberbullying a crime:
👉young people feel confident and seek help
👉abusers are held accountable
@JackieFox21: I could not save my daughter. All I can do now is to fight to protect your children.
❗️Time to bring Coco's law for Europe!

"A child born in Europe is more likely to die by suicide than an American child being murdered by a gun. Many of those young people like my Nicole bullied to death," says @JackieFox21.
#Cyberbullying is a lethal weapon. Let's act now and make it a crime across the EU.

Heartbreaking yet apt speech by @JackieFox21 at the launch of 'It's time' in the European Parliament.
The film tells how her daughter's death sparked a campaign to criminalise #cyberbullying in Ireland.
She succeeded.
Now, we want to criminalise it across the EU.

👏@JackieFox21 achieved huge things.
Her determination has made #cyberbullying a criminal offence in Ireland. So, bullies are held accountable, and no family suffers injustice.
🇪🇺We are picking up the baton to criminalise online harassment across Europe.

🚨#Cyberbullying must be a crime.
We want to scale up the movement @JackieFox21 created in Ireland and bring it to the EU level.
As our Chair @ManfredWeber said: “we take this seriously and we support" your fight Jackie.
