I don't care if people like the joke or not, the intent from Sarah wasn't malicious so therefore BB should not be intervening and policing what a Housemate can and cannot say.
And I really can't wait for Hanah to face the public vote next time.

It wasn't Stop the Gloats which she was told off for. It was freely admitting it's links to "Stop the Boats" which is a sensitive subject for many, due to the way it has been picked up by the political right. It has additional connotations which those of minority background (some, not all) may feel offended by. I can understand why it upset whilst I can also accept that Sarah didn't mean it to offend.
