Pauline Hanson has been suspended from Twitter after comments she made about using cattle prods on protesters.

The One Nation leader’s account has been temporarily suspended for “violating rules against abuse and harassment”, according to Twitter.

The suspension comes after she uploaded a bizarre video to Twitter suggesting electric cattle prods should be used to disperse protesters in Brisbane.

In the video, which shows her wearing an Akubra hat and brandishing a cattle prod, she explains “Pauline’s plan to punish protester pests”.

Senator Hanson has appealed the suspension, describing it as part of the ongoing efforts of the left to stop freedom of speech and silence anyone with whom they don’t agree.

“I don’t see how my tweet was somehow offensive and potentially harmful, if those tweets wishing I’d fall of Uluru are not,” Ms Hanson said.

“This is just a concerted effort by the left to once again push for the censorship of conservative politicians and commentators, but I won’t be silenced and I will keep working for the good of all Australians.”

Ms Hanson has travelled to Uluru and is calling for Indigenous leaders to overturn the ban on climbing the sacred rock.

The last day to climb has been set for October 26 and she recently likened the ban to closing down Bondi Beach.

In her appeal to Twitter, Ms Hanson said tasers and cattle prods were low voltage and nonlethal and only suggested their use on people who block traffic or airports.

She claimed the suspension of her account highlighted double standards in Twitter’s

administration.

“The left has bullied Twitter into suspending my account, yet others who are quite vicious are free to keep going on with their ill-informed rubbish,” Ms Hanson said.

In the one minute video she uploaded to Twitter, Ms Hanson repeatedly stumbled over her words as she explained that farmers used the prods to move their cattle.

“Well, recently, we’ve had all the protesters in Brisbane lying in the streets gluing themselves and, ah, what about the protesters? Now they’re talking about they want to go to the airports and stop the traffic at the airports,” she said.

“Um, what about you, how about if you need to get through the, the traffic maybe to take a loved one to the hospital, desperately need to get to your job or something’s happened and the protesters are there.

“I reckon the solution — let’s use one of these on them, I think they’ll soon move.”

Ms Hanson’s comments were in response to a number of climate change protesters who have caused traffic chaos in Brisbane’s CBD during recent peak-hour demonstrations.

She received swift backlash for the cattle prod video, with many blasting her for the “sickening” stunt and claiming she was “inciting violence”.

“You have just shown Australia and the world that you are totally unfit for any public office. Cattle prods to be used against our citizens, the sort of gormless idea after your dalliance with the NRA. I think Australia has had enough of your mindless offerings,” one Twitter user wrote.

“I thought you were all for free speech. Does this mean you’re only for it when it’s about something you actually agree with? Because that would make you some sort of hypocrite,” one person posted.
