Censorship?

[JennyMorgan]

In an EDP 24 BA related article we are all invited to follow a BA link which I duly did, only to be told that I am blocked from the BA's Twitter Account. I can only think that is because I have questioned the great Doctor's assertions regarding the BNP. Doesn't pay to make unhelpful to the cause comments, even if they are true. Control is the name of the game, make no mistakes about that.

oh dear, have you become a thorn in the doctors side, if its any help, i cant access it either, but maybe that is because i dont have a twitter account.

Hi @JennyMorgan,

Without going back and checking you were possibly 'blocked' by a member of the team in accordance with the social media terms of service/house rules which people are asked to abide by if they are to interact with the Authority on social media.

Most public sector organisations have these in place to prevent abuse towards staff or the organisation, reduce spamming and prevent campaigning.

Being blocked on Twitter should not really constitute censorship as any tweets directed towards an organisation by an individual would still be visible on their feed and others (if their account was not private).

I have just signed in and unblocked you now 

Tom

Well done Tom 

I follow the BA on Twitter - like the bite size info rather than Facebook 

I follow Broads Beat too - It's very informative.

Thank you, Tom, appreciated. As ever, you are one of the good guys!

Preventing campaigning, ummm. By whom ?? A privilege that I wish that I also had .

Is somebody who contributes to a twitter thread a "Twit" ?

Ergo YouTube, Twitter and Facebook users are Youtwitface?!
