The apology comes after the former Apprentice star was permanently banned from Twitter in June for breaking ‘abuse and hate’ rules
Katie Hopkins has issued an apology over a ‘factually incorrect’ Twitter post she shared in May that she claimed showed five men attacking police outside Finsbury Park Mosque.
The former Apprentice contestant, who was permanently banned from Twitter in June this year after breaking ‘abuse and hate rules’, has taken to Instagram – where she continues to speak to followers – to offer her sincerest apologies for any offence caused by her comments.
She wrote: “Dear Sirs, Following our recent correspondence, I am happy to correct the inaccuracies contained in my tweet of 8 May 2020. On that date I retweeted a video of a violent scene, of five men attacking the Metrpolotican Police with the comment:
“‘Finsbury Park mosque just after 8pm. Officers attacked. 5 representatives of the Religion of Peace arrested. Zero media coverage’.”
