Read our privacy policy Gary Lineker has said he has no intention of leaving Twitter amid the ongoing upheaval at the tech company following its takeover by Elon Musk. It's a big platform and I try to use it for what I think are important issues as well as having a bit of fun and promoting things in my job and talking about football Gary Lineker The billionaire has suggested he will allow more “free speech” and allow previously banned accounts – including those which broke rules around inciting violence – to return. “It’s a big platform and I try to use it for what I think are important issues as well as having a bit of fun and promoting things in my job and talking about football.” Some of Lineker’s posts on Twitter have landed him in trouble in the past. Mr Musk began firing thousands of Twitter staff last week as part of cost-cutting measures and told workers in his first address to them on Thursday that he was banning remote working and that “difficult times” lay ahead.
