    What was his exact motive behind calling the BBC News reporter a vulture? :confused::rolleyes:

    The fact his father is a regular in the pub and was sitting where the helicopter fell in? And he was standing waiting on news and BBC were standing reporting beside him?

    Ah, I see, it all makes sense now. :(

    Has this poor lad heard anything about his dad yet? :(

    He hasn't heard anything about his dad, but apparently the helicopter came down right where his dad sat. So he is of the opinion his dad is dead, I don't think there has been any declaration if such, but he must be of the opinion of that, which is really sad. I do hope for better news, but unfortunately we must think the worst.

    This article seems to confirm he is dead.

    Finding it extremely hard to watch on the tv. Christ knows what it is like for the families waiting for news. I really hope there is good news for him.

    Twitter apparently up in arms at Katie Hopkins re a typical attention seeking tweet she has made this evening

    Tbh it does say "fears to be dead" so could there be the small amount of hope?

    i think it was more ill timed than a dig at what happened if it's the one I'm thinking of. She's so self absorbed, she probably doesn't know what's happened.

    Not a direct comment about what happened, but distasteful and ill-timed none the less.

    It was not directly related to the incident, a tweet about low life expectancy in Scotland. She has tweeted it today for maximum reaction obviously, vile woman

    I have just been watching the news on BBC and it basically just took up a 10 minute segment?

    I mean surely it was a horrific incident but does it really deserve that much "airtime"? Slightly surprised as (i hope this doesn't come across as insensitive) the casualty list wasn't as big as some other national and international aviation disasters that have barely made the news the last few months (two spring to mind; the Kazan aircraft tragedy last month that killed 65 and wasn't even mentioned on daily news and the military helicopter that crashed in the Middle East that killed British and American soldiers)

    RIP to all those involved :(

    She made a joke about life expectancy in Scotland and how the Scots are lazy scroungers? She picks her moments!

    Urgh! But it works, even I'm aware of her name and talking about her now :(

    Nah. Just an attention seeker. She apparently likes to 'tell it like it is' which is usually the euphemism for being obnoxious and rude.

    I like this response to Hopkin's tweet best:
    What a terrible woman. I suspect she wouldn't say that out loud in the middle of Glasgow tonight. :-/
