Lisa Nandy, the U.K.’s Culture Secretary, said Thursday that she is leaving X, and that the Department for Culture, Media and Sport will follow suit.

In what could be her final post on the platform, Nandy wrote: “I’ve decided to leave this platform and my department will too. A platform originally designed for free speech and expression now favors abuse and misinformation over meaningful debate. It isn’t healthy for our democracy or our communities and I don’t want to support it.”
