The family of Sinn Féin MLA Martina Anderson has launched a stinging attack on her party, after she was told to step down from her Foyle Assembly seat.

In a lengthy post on social media, her family said Ms Anderson had been “publicly humiliated” by the move and that she and fellow MLA Karen Mullan — who was also ordered to stand down — were being unfairly “sacrificed” by her party.
