Knitting your own Birkenstocks?!
Katie Hopkins again.. Doesn't she ever go away? The debate about Attachment Parenting didn't seem to even go anywhere or be resolved.
Anyone else see it?
AIBU to think Katie Hopkins needs less airtime?

Peaches made me laugh when she said Katie was a perfect example of the damage which can be done by non-attachment parenting.

Groovee · 12/11/2013 11:15

Didn't see it but, Peaches telling Katie she was an example of damage makes me laugh. Would have loved to see her face.

MulberryHag · 12/11/2013 11:48

It looked the same as always. Horsey-like... Grin
Peaches also told her off for slagging off her own children in the press!

This was an interesting one to watch. Not a huge fan of attatchment parenting but the way Peaches put Katie in her place was fabulous.

ILetHimKeep20Quid · 12/11/2013 11:59

Wish I'd seen it now.

PrincessChick · 12/11/2013 12:03

I must admit to Grin when she said (like a pantomime baddy) you can literally SMELL the BREASTMILK in Costa! So ridiculous she's hilarious!!

WorraLiberty · 12/11/2013 12:03

I saw it

Katie Hopkins is a professional troll and yes - she certainly needs less air time.

OrlandoWoolf · 12/11/2013 12:04

She has her own column in the Sun. I think she's given up on her business consultancy stuff and her new profession is "Rent a Gob" as Peaches put it so eloquently.

Do you think she practises sneering in the mirror?

EssexGurl · 12/11/2013 12:05

Was v impressed with Peaches to be honest. Put Katie in her place and stood up to her. Always thought she was a bit of a non-entity and famous just for the name. But v mature and switched on. Made Katie look a bitter old bag!

SkinnybitchWannabe · 12/11/2013 12:06

It will be on You Tube ILetHim
I think Katie is hilarious..she started off controversal but now shes just a pantomine villan and very predicable now.
Her facial expressions were so funny.
I did like what Peaches said..really gave as good as she got and then some.

WestieMamma · 12/11/2013 12:06

I was surprised she was allowed to swear repeatedly on daytime TV. She kept saying 'AP parenting is only a step away from CRAP parenting'.

blondiep14 · 12/11/2013 12:10

I thought Peaches came across well too.
Did a Shock when Katie mentioned Peaches' baby falling out if the pram. Low blow and was glad Phil stepped in.

Wish TM wouldn't keep wheeling Katie Hopkins out tho. She's predictably vile.

BuntyPenfold · 12/11/2013 12:10

Yes, KH kept swearing. And was ridiculous. I know who I'd rather be brought up by.

I didn't know that was Peaches Geldof! (Sorry Peaches, out of touch old gimmer.)
She's very pretty, not that that is relevant.

siblingrevelry · 12/11/2013 12:11

I felt the same about Peaches and now feel a bit judgmental! From the limited stuff I've seen I'd written her off as publicity seeking and not very interesting.

She came across today as switched on, very caring and actually quite humble. Think I quite like her!

SireeDubs · 12/11/2013 12:12

OP: Katie Hopkins needs NO airtime. 'Telling it like it is' my arse. Making money from polemics in sound bites. Any fool can do that, but most of us choose not to as it's a. not helpful and b. not how the real world functions.

Aaaaaghhh! Stop talking about her; it's fuel for her money earning ability to spout this motherfrickin' crap.

And breathe. Angry

MulberryHag · 12/11/2013 12:13

I agree Blondie, when she mentioned Peache's baby had fallen from the buggy, I was quite shocked.
A new low perhaps (can it be possible)?
If you sink to personal attacks like that it's obvious you don't believe in your argument and are a sad old troll

I watched if out of curiosity re Peaches, as I normally avoid Hopkins like the plague that she is. While no fan of Peaches G., she did well. PG was more than amatch for Hopkins, some of her ripostes definitely hit home. Actually, I think Hopkins has become a parody of herself and is boringly predictable. She and 'The Sun' are made for each other; low rent, no class, crass garbage.

Lazysuzanne · 12/11/2013 12:22

Does anyone have a link by any chance, I don't know who Katie Hopkins is but I'd like to watch it!

kelda · 12/11/2013 12:24

I thought PG did quite well. KH just couldn't seem to formulate a valid arguement: her side of the debate seemed to consist of 'all Swedish children are brats' and 'they all knit their own birkenstocks'.

kelda · 12/11/2013 12:24

Lazysuzanne - it's on youtube.

Lazysuzanne · 12/11/2013 12:25

Thanks :o

WestieMamma · 12/11/2013 12:25

Katie did make me laugh though when she said Sweden was a nation of brats. I did wonder if she's ever been here.

ILetHimKeep20Quid · 12/11/2013 12:39

Just watched it, well done peaches!

Timetoask · 12/11/2013 12:40

I just watched it on the inlayer (or whatever its called for ITV). I think it's a real shame that the media insists on giving air time to that horrible woman. Those poor children of hers will need years of therapy, for sure. KH that is.

I do think though, that Peaches and her hubby need to get their bed back for themselves! 7 months should be enough for co-sleeping surely?
