🚨 Labour is using the “Online Safety Act” to silence political opponents, and TikTok is doing their dirty work.
First, TikTok removed my video announcing Reform UK’s new policy to place secure illegal migrant detention centres in non-Reform constituencies, prioritising Green ones.
TikTok explicitly cited the Online Safety Act as the reason for its removal.
This is hard evidence of this draconian legislation being weaponised to silence political opponents.
That same video has 6.2 million views on other platforms.
Today, the censorship escalated.
TikTok has now removed my video outlining the key policies I would implement as Home Secretary, claiming it is “Hate Speech and Hateful Behaviour.”
They warned me that any further "violations" will result in a strike, potentially leading to being de-platformed altogether.
This is all the more staggering given TikTok happily hosts hundreds of videos of people calling for the assassination of Nigel Farage.
My TikTok videos had received 18 million views over the previous 28 days.
This is a chilling attempt to silence one of the biggest and fastest-growing UK political accounts on the platform.
TikTok is engaging in direct political interference in the midst of the most pivotal elections in our country’s history.
All under the auspice of the “Online Safety Act” that the Tories and Labour claimed to be about protecting children.
It is, and always will be about silencing voices the open-borders political establishment don’t like.
@TikTokComms have decided to try and suppress Reform.
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
