    I dont get why people care so much about what she says. Is their some rule somewhere that says she is somehow relevant to the nation that we must all consider her utterances to be important ? She says stupid stuff to get noticed, then people get all uppitty when they do and generate headlines for her. Seems to me that she is playing the game well and getting paid for it.

    She's just an attention seeker.

    Perhaps she should have remembered the words of Abraham Lincoln

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.
    — ABRAHAM LINCOLN

    On second thoughts - there is no doubt - she has appeared in (un)reality TV ;)

    As usual she's only saying what a lot of people really think but don't say. Except for some of the posts on the 'Bob Crowe has died' thread on here. I don't see that causing an outrage and getting quoted in the newspapers. Double standards. Let's not get our knickers in a twist.

    This++

    A bit like The Daily Mail, some people go too far out of their way to be offended by them and by doing so, contribute to both's coffers.

    I love the way the thread title has been shortened.

    Oh to be a talking head with poo. She must have really caused a stink this time!:D

    Ignore her. She is someone who thinks she is clever but is in fact unbelievably thick. Like a nasty pimple she will go away eventually.

    She shouldn't inspire hatred, because that's what she wants.

    Hopkins only deserves apathy and boredom.

    Not very edifying, but the infantile reactions to Maggie Thatcher's death were far worse, so I suppose it all evens out. Children will be children.

    It doesn't, since Thatcher destroyed the lives of many. Hostility and celebration upon her death was inevitable. They showed her the same contempt in death that she showed towards many when she was alive and in power.

    Never heard of her and couldn't care less what she thinks so no idea why anyone would be bothered but did like the way the thread titled was shortened.

    There is a worrying amount of misogyny on social media sites.

    Such a shame that she is not alone in her opinions. This forum is testimony to that.

    Come the revolution, comrade, we'll be able to kill or imprison those who dare hold opinions we don't.

    I think there is something seriously wrong with this woman. She just spouts bile at everyone. I wish the media would just ignore her. It must be very embarrassing for her family and her children.

    Now, I dislike Katie Hopkins as much as the next person but I think it's absolutely ridiculous she's getting "slammed" (to use one of the media's favourite words) for not saying anything about Peaches Geldof. Since when was it the law we all have to acknowledge someone's passing in public or be hanged, drawn and quartered by some lunatic baying mob?

    This is just grief porn in action, right?

    Apparently she was on ITV`s This Morning last week with PG doing her usual "offensive for payment" schtick making some hurtful remarks at Peaches who was sitting right there. I saw a brief clip last night so I`ve no idea what happened in full but it`s unfortunate that she encountered that POS in her final week alive.

    She would do well to keep quiet as there's not really anything she could say without either being accused of hypocrisy on one hand or bad taste on the other.

    Ah okay, that does make a bit of a difference.

    I wish people would just stop reacting to Katie Hopkins' existence. Only then will the media stop bringing her out to wind-up the masses at every chance. The woman's not even any good at it!

    It's all an act and it's really annoying to see her in the limelight all the time. I just hope people don't take her seriously, but there's bound to be some who do.
