Lee Hurst
Case #
1900

British comedian suspended from Twitter for vulgar tweet about Greta Thunberg: British comedian Lee Hurst was suspended from Twitter after he suggested in a tweet that once the 18-year-old climate activist "discovers" sex, referring specifically to the male anatomy, she will "stop complaining about the single use plastic it's wrapped in." Hurst said he has "no regrets" about the post and has refused to apologize, according to the UK's Mirror. "I’ve appealed, but heard nothing yet," Hurst said of his Twitter suspension to the UK's Daily Star. "If I’m binned[sic] permanently then I suppose I’m glad I was binned[sic] for writing a gag rather than for having a rant," he added. "No regrets. It got laughs."
