Far-right commentator*Katie Hopkinshas been suspended from*Twitter*following*calls for the social network to carry out a “full review” of her account.

Unless she actually called for violence, she shouldn't be banned from any platform.

No, if you're using someone else's platform, you abide by their rules. If she doesn't like it, she can go and create her own platform.

Is that what she's banned for, calling out Stormzy's racism?

Surely it can't be?

i never liked Hopkins right back to her time on the apprentice. It is such a waste of energy to fill yourself with the hate she showed in that video

No. She's been suspended whilst they review her account for YEARS of tweeting to incite hate.

No, just the straw that broke the troll's back.

That's all Katie Hopkins is. Not genuine far right. Not a social commentator. Probably not even a genuinely "hate filled" racist.

Just a sad old troll desperately trying to stay relevant by pandering to casual racists.

True. She probably didn't get much attention as a child.
