In which, middle class India Knight called la Liz everything under the sun on her nasty twitter diatribe of nonsense.

Schadenfreude, I know.

I think she is a Cynthia.

Valpollicella · 30/10/2012 23:08

From what I know of her and her Twatter musings my only kind of respect was when she was on Something Special with Mr Tumble with her lovely DD

two argumentative hasbeens
how very obvious and unbecoming
probably ploy to generate interest

UnrequitedSkink · 30/10/2012 23:29

I was going to suggest that you were all being utter bitches, but then I remembered...good God, she deserves it.

UnrequitedSkink · 30/10/2012 23:30

But what I don't GET, right, is why Lauren Laverne, who I think is rather lovely, is such bessie mates with India on Twitter? I think she's secretly terrified of her.

I like LJ. I think it's such a bandwagon to jump on. she's made good points about extreme thinness of models. I know she writes about clothes, ponies and her xh for the DM but what she writes doesn't make me want to slam the paper down and scream. Plenty of other DM contributors have that effect on me.

NotMostPeople · 31/10/2012 00:12

Her name was Giselle rather nicer than India if you ask me. Google is your friend here ladies.

Her diet book is great, I haven't followed her much so don't know her that we'll but I do wish women wouldn't bitch about other women's size/looks (looks at some of you pointedly).

Snazzyspookyandscary · 31/10/2012 00:17

India's reading the thread, folks: look at this tweet about it. So now the defensiveness about her original name. She really can't take any kind of criticism, which is surely odd for someone working in the cuthroat world of journalism. But presumably criticism from the 'little people' is unbearable.

It's times like this that I'm glad I don't understand, or want to understand, Twitter. I might be tempted to get drawn in, but thankfully my life is so much bigger than hers, even without a £3million house.

So who is Michaela Sheen? Why does IK tell her to go and cuddle her cat? I know LJ loves animals (caring for them, not eating them like IK).

Vagabond · 31/10/2012 01:52

Sheen is a nobody who had the temerity to mess with India whats-her-name over this pathetic squabble. She apparently wears bad hats!

Vagabond · 31/10/2012 01:54

Thinks....lightbulb.....that India Knight thinks that anyone who posits an opinion other than her own is masquerading as Liz Jones. Hence the cat ref. Go figure.

L1zLem0n · 31/10/2012 01:56

unfortunately michaela sheen has gone to bed! what a shame.

MrsCampbellBlack · 31/10/2012 06:39

India used to be a mn'er I think. I do rather like her writing but seems to be the role of female columnists to out bitch each other which is just sad and dull.

Agree though commenting on her looks and weight is not on really
