As various media reports, Facebook has blocked the page of the right-wing extremist and Islamophobic British group “Britain First”!

The reason is that this site spread hate speech. For example, Muslims have been compared to animals, among other things! On Wednesday, March 14, 2018, Facebook announced that the page had been blocked due to repeated violations. The reason for this was that the site was inciting hatred against minorities. The admin(s) did not respond to a written warning.

The Facebook page itself had over 2 million fans.

But not only that!

The private profiles of the operators, i.e. chairman Paul Golding and his deputy Jayda Fransen, were also blocked. Both operators have been in custody since last week. The reason: hate crimes !

Facebook:

Content posted on the Britain First Facebook Page and the Pages of party leaders Paul Golding and Jayda Fransen has repeatedly broken our Community Standards. We recently gave the administrators of the Pages a written final warning, and they have continued to post content that violates our Community Standards. As a result, in accordance with our policies, we have now removed the official Britain First Facebook Page and the Pages of the two leaders with immediate effect. We do not do this lightly, but they have repeatedly posted content designed to incite animosity and hatred against minority groups, which disqualifies the Pages from our service.
