An Instagram account set up by students containing a photo of the words “F*uck Boris” graffitied in the school toilets was shut down after it was identified using software by a “central government social media team”, which then ordered the local MP to contact the school and get the account removed, according to a shocked parent.
The parent of a student close to the incident, who wishes to remain anonymous, contacted Byline Times because they were in “utter shock that this is happening in the UK in 2020” as it “has the look and feel of 1930s fascism”.
Following the General Election last month, the words “F*ck Boris” appeared on a wall inside the toilets at The Gryphon School – a mixed-sex secondary with academy status in Sherborne, Dorset – the parent said. Students at the school then created an Instagram account and uploaded a photo of the graffiti.
