"Hilarious"? Dreadful I'm afraid.
The "producer" makes more sense in that clip.

£150,000 plus costs isn't a storm in a teacup
Can you imagine if this verdict had been passed on another LBC presenter?
The reaction may well have been different on here.
Still its always good to know who tries to defend Hopkins.
It's not just about defending Ms Hopkins, it's also about thinking it's ok to defend hatred and lies.

What did he get wrong?
If he predicted that Brexit and Trump would be a disaster......Philip Hammond has already confirmed the former and we will have to wait to judge the latter.
He got both votes wrong for starters and his predictions for the UK economy were I agree not as bad as yours in the days following the vote but were well wide of the mark.

I would imagine the law firm took the case on a no win no fee basis so it wouldn't have cost the Mahmood family anything.

I don't think being called a terrorist supporter is "a very small storm in an even small tea-cup" when you're the victim of a campaign of hate against you. I'm absolutely delighted that the Mahmood family stood up to the hatred of Katie Hopkins and called her out for the liar that she is.
You would 'imagine'.......so you don't know, you're simply having a guess?
I stated the facts as reported in the media.
Even the Mahmoods don't deny the facts from the story........yet you, Bangles & Landis do?

It would appear that you are willing to jump on and ride any Katie Hopkins bashing bandwagon, regardless of the facts of the matter.
Why is it that lefty tree huggers are unable to be objective about anything unless it is part of their agendas.......seriously!
The only part that puzzles me is whether you are '70's hippies' or members of 'Generation Snowflake'?

You could say that about almost anybody he mentions. It's his constant bitching about Prince Harry that gets me down, especially the smutty innuendo about his girlfriend.
That annoys me too...he's saying purely and utterly from speculation , no fact just bitter spite.... she's the reason to watch Suits (as well as Donna) which is amiable and watchable apart from the risible Brits as bad guys caricatures that is...

Does he think we are still in the '30's?
It's a very different world today than Wallis and Simpson....

He knows nothing....

Oh ps if anyone paid £50 for his "show" as he kept mentioning his "shows" I'd be after a refund apparently he only rehashed stories but most of all he did an hour....

The facts are that Hopkins and the Mail have to pay £150,000 plus costs.
Another fact is that you try and insult other posters who have a different view to you.
Why?

So, you've conveniently skipped over the 'Indisputable facts of the story' again in order to simply state the result......again!
What insults were they Bangles?
Perhaps you could sue me?..........I 'imagine' Clitheroe knows a no win/no fee lawyer?

Now that's an interesting comment.

What did I predict about what would happen after Cameron triggered Article 50 on the 28th June 2016, and how do you propose to test it?

Hopkins/Mail falsely accused the family of links to terrorism.
Which is why they have to pay damages and costs.
Because they lied.

Doesn't make sense.
I am attacking an LBC presenter because I find her views and her Politics offensive. Not because of her dress sense or what she drives. That is being objective.

If you can only process Political Opinion in terms of two Cartoonish extremes.....either lefty tree huggers......or Nazis......I fail to see how that helps you during an insult game.

Hope the family now make a generous donation to a refugee charity out of the damages to be paid to them.
And they film them making the donation and send a link to Hopkins and the Mail thanking them for making it possible to make such a generous donation.

I expect to see Jeremy Corbyn tap dancing on the moon near the 'Sea of Tranquility' before that happens.

How much of their windfall would you consider 'generous'?

Seems a bit unlikely.
He has covered the topic in the past and was not very complimentary towards Freemasons.

I hope LBC management take note: Katie Hopkins is a liability and how long will it before she libels someone on air?
At last, some truth.........I wondered how long it would take one of the 'Three Amigos' to finally cough.
It would have been a lot easier and certainly far more honest of you if you'd just said 'I hate the woman and everything she stands for.........I want her fired' 👏👏👏

I don't hate Katie Hopkins, I just disagree with a lot of her views. She is someone who on many occasions has pedalled hate and lies against Muslims and I don't think someone like that is suitable for being an LBC presenter. We should be trying to bring communities together and not trying to bring about divisions by attacking individuals with lies because they are Muslims.

Sorry, only just been able to get back. Thanks a lot. Steve doesn't normally play records, do you know why he played this one?

Would you want to have to put up with him in your club (or lodge) ranting away, being rude to everyone and snarling? He probably never got asked.

If workers heard him say that they can't achieve anything without rich folk like him, would they think he was right or would they think he was patronising?

You are a classic 'Tree Hugger' Landis,
With all respect, you appear to be doing precisely what you complained about JOB doing in a previous post - using name-calling and generalisations.

Steve is disturbingly bitchy over David Walliams at present. What's he ever done that's so wrong?
Because David is still on TV and Fanny Allen was swiftly removed off Channel 5, when they realised how naff he was.

Steve had been talking about his favourite Gene Pitney songs one was 'Backstage' and the other was 'Trans Canada Highway'. He said hit had an usual beginning and loved the chorus so the producer obviously found it for him so he played a little snippet ...
