Follows controversial post about Storm Eunice
A social media post about Storm Eunice that sparked controversy has hit the UK headlines.
Earlier today the Department of Infrastructure shared a Facebook update about the cancellation to the closure of Peel Promenade.
The department confirmed plans had changed due to a change in the wind direction.
It also said: "Thank you for your patience and understanding, but like most women Eunice changes her mind what shes doing." (sic)
The post sparked mixed reactions on social media with some people finding it humorous and others accusing the DoI of 'sexism'.
The Department of Infrastructure then issued a statement which said: "The Department of Infrastructure is aware of a message posted on its Facebook page this morning, and subsequently amended, which fell below the standards expected of our organisation. Measures are being taken to ensure this does not happen again."
The Mail Online and The Mirror have both picked up on, and are running, the story.
