When she's clearly joking (like with the ginger babies comment) that's one thing.
But her points about fat people etc aren't just things being said to upset anyone, they are saying, in an extreme way, very important things.
Obesity is a HUGE problem in the UK, costing the NHS millions.
People who moan about Katie are part of that reason, not just obese people.
Because Katie says what needs to be said and opens debate on these things.”
Thanks for your concern, but I've not missed any point. Katie fans can make all the excuses in the world (as they have been on here this series), I believe Katie does set out to hurt people.
Is the name Tyler (for example) a HUGE problem in the UK, costing people millions? Oh, wait, judging children and their families because of a name was another of her "jokes", I assume? Mocking a seriously ill woman was another hilarious "joke" too?
And casually calling for more bombing without showing the slightest bit of sympathy for innocents? Was that one of her "important points" that couldn't possible have been said in another way?
What about having sex with a married man, bragging about it as if it was an achievement to her and then absolving herself of any blame because she wasn't the one married? Where does that fit in the "jokes / important point" spectrum?
Excuses, excuses. She's a horrible person in my opinion, and nothing I've seen in the house has changed that.

I love how people's morals completely change when it's someone they don't like comes up to be talked about.”
Complete nonsense. It takes two to tango. If somebody knowingly sleeps with a married man, both are at fault.
And what makes you think anyones' morals have changed? Have you proof any of those criticising Katie for the affair supported infidelity themselves before?
