It's still happening: David Icke's toxic COVID-19 conspiracies were broadcast on social media this evening.

They appeared on the London Real @YouTube channel before switching to @DacastStreaming.

Posts on @Twitter, @Facebook and @Instagram ensured tens of thousands tuned in.
David Icke used his latest video to claim that:
❌ COVID-19 does not exist
❌ 5G is causing the illness
❌ Lockdown is "a global version of Nazi Germany"
This screenshot shows @YouTube handling $1,000s in donations for David Icke's latest COVID-19 conspiracy video.

It featured an interview with InfoWar's Alex Jones - who is banned from YouTube - discussing Icke's own ban from the platform.

This has to stop.
David Icke's toxic COVID-19 lies will keep spreading until he is comprehensively deplatformed.

@Twitter and @Instagram must act next to prevent Icke from promoting his conspiracy theories.

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.

Following our meeting with @Twitter this week, they have locked Katie Hopkins out of her account & accepted that she violated their hateful conduct policy. Here are just some reasons we have called on them to permanently remove her from their platform [THREAD]
Hopkins was fired by LBC after using @Twitter to call for “a final solution” in response to the Manchester Arena terror attack, echoing the Nazi term for the Holocaust.
Hopkins has also used @Twitter to spread misinformation, including making libellous claims about Jack Monroe, for which she was successfully sued.
