I had my Twitter account locked for asking a question
A very brief account
1 min readJul 27, 2019
Earlier this week I tried to log into my Twitter account only to find it was locked!
My offence? This tweet from March 2018 (yes 2018!):
I appealed, saying it was a question of fact.
Two days later the response to my appeal was this:
So, in order to get back into my account, I had to delete the offending tweet.
Someone had decided, because I tweet about
- abuses of self-id (which, despite there having been no change in the law in the UK, is de facto in operation)
- the danger transgender ideology poses to children and young people and
- women needing single sex spaces in e.g. domestic violence refuges, rape crisis centres and prisons
that I needed to be taught a lesson.
The only “lesson” I have learnt is that I should lock my account overnight!!
