Movement at last from Facebook.

It's banning white nationalism and white separatism, in the wake of the mosque attacks.

The social media giant says such views, deeply linked to organised hate groups, have no place on its Facebook and Instagram sites.

It will ban the praise, support and representation of those views from the start of next week.

Facebook has also acknowledged it needs to be better and faster at finding and removing hate from its platforms, such as posts supporting the Christchurch attacks.
