‘Embarrassing’ for Twitter banning ‘someone like myself’: Hopkins

Columnist Katie Hopkins questions “how much longer can conservatives sit and be censored” after the commentator received a permanent ban from the Twitter for a tweet she made in response to a threat against her. The social media giant said the move was designed “to keep Twitter safe” according to a spokesperson. It also read that the account has been permanently suspended for breaching “violations of our hateful conduct policy”. “I used the phrase hung like a baboon in response to a threat of a sexual nature of violence against me,” Ms Hopkins told Sky News “It’s actually a line from Rowan Atkinson’s Black Adder. “I have been banned from Twitter for life because I used the phrase hung like a baboon, and that’s the truth in black and white. “There’s no coming back from this, for Twitter, it’s embarrassing that they have banned someone like myself for using hung like a baboon.”
