As well as Katie Hopkins, we requested that @Twitter review George Galloway’s presence on their platform when we met them this week.

Galloway uses @Twitter to inculcate antisemitism. Here’s why @Twitter should remove him [THREAD]

Galloway uses @Twitter to promote antisemitic conspiracy theories that Israel is behind ISIS, Al Qaeda, problems facing Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, and opposition to Galloway’s unsuccessful 2015 general election campaign.

Galloway used @Twitter to breach the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism, by labelling the creation of Israel “a racist endeavour.” In the week of Holocaust Memorial Day, it evidences Twitter's toxicity that this tweet is still up.

Galloway used @Twitter to call a Jewish journalist a “Zionist hireling.” Let's be straight: Galloway is using Zionist as a codeword for Jew, a well-known tactic of antisemitic hate actors.

Galloway used Twitter to call Israelis “Zionist maniacs” who hold “satanic weddings.” Using literal "demonising" language to describe Jews is a way of justifying treating them inhumanely. Twitter needs to take this down.

Don't forget Galloway was sacked by TalkRadio after he used @Twitter to celebrate Liverpool’s Champions League win over Tottenham by proclaiming “No Israel flags on the cup.” Tottenham have deep links to the Jewish community in North London.

Galloway uses @Twitter to spread misinformation designed to incite hatred against Jews, including about a Palestinian child who tragically drowned. Galloway lied, blaming Israelis. Despite being disproved and reported, Twitter did nothing. Result? It was shared 7,000 times.

Galloway’s pattern of behaviour shows that he uses @Twitter to spread lies & conspiracies, and incite hate towards Jews. Twitter must punish repeated breaches. We cannot reward antisemitism with indifference. Twitter, time to show the #WillToAct on *your own rules*.
