Taming the trolls

It WAS admirable for Alex Salmond to call for online trolls to be identified.

However, what was interesting was the SNP response to Labour claims that no action has been taken against any of the 50 so-called cybernat trolls it identified as being SNP members.

The quoted SNP response was that “as the First Minister has made clear, the SNP will take appropriate action on those whose behaviour falls below the standards we expect”.

Can we assume then that as no action has been taken, these identified members have been behaving to a standard expected by the SNP?
