George Galloway has threatened legal action against Twitter after his account was marked ‘Russia state-affiliated media’ by the social media platform.

The controversial politician, who most recently stood in the Scottish Parliament elections and ran against Kim Leadbeater in Batley and Spen, presents the Mother Of All Talk Shows on Radio Sputnik, which is owned by the Kremlin.

His account now carries a designation as Twitter attempts to curtain the scale of Russian propaganda on its platform.

Official accounts will no longer be “recommended” to Twitter users across all categories of the app, including in searches, the platform said in a statement.

The California company had already blocked the accounts of the Russian state-run media RT and Sputnik in the European Union.

Dear @TwitterSupport I am not “Russian State Affiliated media”. I work for NO #Russian media. I have 400,000 followers. I’m the leader of a British political party and spent nearly 30 years in the British parliament. If you do not remove this designation I will take legal action.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
