London Twitter issued a warning after Britain's Conservative Party came under fire for rebranding one of its official Twitter accounts"factcheckUK" during a debate between its leader, Boris Johnson, and the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn on Tuesday.
The change during a pivotal election debate drew immediate condemnation not just from users but also from organizations on the social media platform. Though the Twitter"handle" remained CCHQPress , the name and images of the page were switched to a purple background with a checkmark and"factcheckUK." The account then issued"fact checks" of Corbyn's statements during the debate.
