Ferdinand was appearing before the UK Parliament's Home Affairs Committee inquiry into online abuse. Others who spoke at the inquiry included former Watford forward Marvin Sordell and former England Women's international Lianne Sanderson. "My worry is what are the social media companies waiting for?
