Piers Morgan's Twitter account hasn't tweeted for ages. Which is very strange given recent events

I know it got hacked. But that was a few weeks ago.

Now it looks like his last tweet was on 26th December

What is going on? It's not like he won't have an opinion on anything in the news at the moment.

Hopefully he’s been kidnapped?

chocolateflapjacks · 07/01/2023 14:06

That's a good point op. Maybe he's waiting for something

Antst · 07/01/2023 14:07

That is interesting.

I have never been able to figure out how #Me Too didn't catch up with him. He has engaged in a years-long stalking and bullying campaign against a woman who turned him down. Part of the reason for that was his harassment of her husband's family and especially his mother who was literally hounded to death by people like him.

You'd never know if from following British comments, but certainly in the US, there are people who recognize his role in driving Meghan to suicidal thoughts and to getting out of the UK. Until the book came out, he was able to keep targeting her, safe in the knowledge she'd never fight back.

I wonder if what's going on now is that people are realizing how creepy and awful he has been and he figures it's safest to lie low?

Maybe he's been blocked out of his email account as well?

Or his DMs have been hacked and someone has told him to stop tweeting or else they will be released?

@cakeorwine, it is interesting. I'll certainly be keeping an eye out!

It must be related to the book. I'm thinking he must be afraid of something in it that hasn't been reported yet. The only way he'd shut up would be if he were really afraid of something, I think. Maybe he has been phone hacking to get information about Meghan and Harry and is afraid of legal trouble?

Maybe he thinks he doesn't need to while the Mumsnet crazies do it for him?

TooBigForMyBoots · 07/01/2023 14:51

Bet his sock puppet account has been busy.

Antst · 07/01/2023 14:53

@PAFMO, I highly doubt that. When has that man ever been able to shut up? It is weird he's quiet now that the Harry book is out.

Blip · 07/01/2023 16:47

Probably in the Caribbean for Christmas

Ellmau · 07/01/2023 18:07

Has he moved to a new account? This one looks quite active: twitter.com/PiersUncensored

Ellmau · 07/01/2023 18:09

Mind you, rather lacking in self awareness to say "He's giving ammunition now to people who are desperate to get British soldiers into court,” given what got him sacked from the Mirror.

Enfys1982 · 07/01/2023 18:13

He was hacked before Christmas and whoever it was posted lots of quite offensive and barely literate stuff. I assumed it was something to do with that.

Antst · 07/01/2023 18:15

@Ellmau, he seems like the type who would make a big song and dance about moving though. I just checked out your link to the new account and although he mentions Meghan and Harry, it's not the wall-to-wall hysteria he'd usually be engaging in. Does seem odd.

Piers is absent for some reason

He’ll be in Barbados for Xmas. Probable back to work on Monday.

It will be interesting to watch how he will dig himself out of blaming everything on Meghan when it is very clear from his book, that H isn’t being driven by anyone.

Delorestormborn · 08/01/2023 08:05

He takes time away from social media at Christmas and the new year.
Don’t get your hopes up he’ll be back.

LadySweetPea · 08/01/2023 08:25

I think he and Jeremy Clarkson should be charged with hate crimes. They have done so much harm. Despicable people.

I am sure he will have things to say,

How could anyone tell the difference between the hacked stuff and the usual drivel he posts?
