A man charged with public nuisance after allegedly heckling Liberal National Party volunteers during the state election campaign has appeared in a Brisbane court.

Iain Robert Fogerty was arrested while wearing a T-shirt with the slogan, "I'm With Stupid".

He was the operator of a parody Campbell Newman Twitter account known as Not Campbell Newman with the handle @Can_Do_Campbell.

Fogerty, a 44-year-old lawyer, attracted police attention in Fortitude Valley early in the election campaign when LNP and Labor supporters were campaigning on the street.

He was accused of pushing and heckling LNP volunteers.

In the Brisbane Magistrates Court on Wednesday morning, he pleaded not guilty to the public nuisance charge on his own behalf.

The case has been adjourned to next month.

Earlier this week, Fogerty retired his parody Twitter handle, which had been running since 2010 when Mr Newman was Brisbane's Lord Mayor.

When he started his Twitter profile, Fogerty originally went to great lengths to hide his identity and even turned up to an interview with the ABC in 2011 wearing a balaclava and dark sunglasses.

Fogerty told 612 ABC Brisbane's Spencer Howson that in the beginning he was not behind any party and that the account was about "having fun" - but that changed shortly after the 2012 election.

"What changed was my perception of the Government and its arrogance and the way it treated people," he said.
