Mings has thrown his support behind Arsenal legend Henry's stance - and admitted that the football world showing unity may be required to spark a crackdown. Tyrone Mings has urged the football world to boycott social media platforms to force changeHe told Sky Sports News: 'I think it might get to a stage where the only alternative, if social media companies aren't doing enough, is that we show unity and all come off, and by all I mean the clubs as well. 'If the clubs aren't posting anything, the fans have nothing to engage with unfortunately, and obviously these social media platforms are engagement driven and viewer driven. The government will look to introduce new laws, aimed at holding social media platforms to account, to help deal with the problem. 'I understand it's a process, and we're not there yet, but there has to be greater strides towards protecting players and people in general on social media.'
