I'm no fan of Katie but if I'm honest I don't think she should be investigated by police.

Oh - and I hope she gets fat as well. Given what she's said about fat people.

I hope she gets depression and that it hurts - given what she's said about depression.

Her fortune fails - and she ends up on benefits - given what's she said about people on benefits.

If you slag people off, be careful. It could end up with you and no one will have any sympathy.

Six months after being forced from office Margaret Thatcher said: "Home is where you come to when you've got nothing better to do."

She died in the luxury of The Ritz surrounded by strangers.

Orlando, IMO wishing depression on someone is worse than wishing death on them.

OrlandoWoolf · 04/04/2015 17:51

She has been really horrible to people with depression. It's a horrible thing to have. But if you are going to criticise people with depression, then I wish she would bloody get it so she then realises how horrible it is.

It's so fucking easy to criticise people when you don't know anything about the reality of it.

UncertainSmile · 04/04/2015 18:04

I've had depression; at times I'd have preferred death.
You miss my point though. You criticised me for wishing death on her, yet you wished depression on her.

WetAugust · 04/04/2015 18:39

Great thread. - whether it's acceptable to wish depression on someone rather than death? lol! Only on Mumsnet!

I hope she has a long and happy life, just as I hope you all have a long and happy life.

I hope you will continue to express your views and I hope you will extend Hopkins the same privilege,

Tolerance.

Wishing death on someone is not on

That's your opinion OrlandoWoolf

I wouldn't wish death on my worst enemies because it is a swift release.

Slow death however...

cleanmachine · 04/04/2015 19:20

Wet - for once I agree with you!

I have to ask though.... Are you KH?

Inkanta · 04/04/2015 20:53

It's like walking into a chiller/horror.

DIE!!!

Anything to get Horse-Face out of the limelight. She has a skewed superiority complex.. and it's quite frankly, not pretty (and neither is she).

cinders456 · 04/04/2015 21:59

I just don't understand how/why she has been given a platform to air her crap.. she bores me zzz

WetAugust · 04/04/2015 23:12

Thanks Cleanmachine.

No, I am not KH

But this thread has made me realise that MN is no longer a place I wish to visit.

Here you go

The thing is, she's incredibly thick. Really, really stupid and you can't argue with stupid people.

Not just saying that because I disagree with her opinions or how she expresses them. Having watched her on CBB, she really isn't intelligent at all. She's opinionated, manipulative and has an ego the size of Jupiter, but she's not very bright. A terrible combination.

OrlandoWoolf · 05/04/2015 08:01

Why don't you join her twitter feed and contribute there? You should really read some of the vile stuff she comes out with. Makes this look quite tame.

OrlandoWoolf · 05/04/2015 08:01

And you are acting like her now - making judgements about a whole group of people.

Inkanta · 05/04/2015 10:17

Wet August - I like reading your posts.

Don't be discouraged by the darkness on this thread.

Keep posting.

Katie hopkins is a hypocrite, who she likes is determined how rich they are or whether they have a certain position of power.

She criticised katie price for claiming DLA for Harvey as Katie price could afford his treatment yet would never call David Cameron out on claiming DLA as she is friends with him.

She has made various comments about drug addiction but was best friends in the Cbb house with Alexander who has a drug problem and allegedly taking drugs in the house yet other druggies are scum of the earth and no such thing as addiction.

She picks on easy targets who are likely to retaliate.

exmrs · 05/04/2015 12:26

It's interesting how much she has showed support to Jeremy clarkson , again I think she knows how well connected he is and what he may be able to do for her.

MiscellaneousAssortment · 05/04/2015 17:20

Making yourself into a public hate figure and chasing notoriety rather than actual fame means people will indeed hate you, and enjoy your fall.

Part of the trajectory is people cheering as she says more and more outrageous things, yet when she thinks herself untouchable and over reaches herself, they will be suddenly absent in her life, as the baying for blood takes over... It's a well worn path and although some don't get their comeuppance they don't yet to parade their idiocy forever.

It seems that she's too stupid to understand the bad ending that goes with the territory. Her blindness, well, it could make her a figure of pathos, though I can't bring myself to be sympathetic to her plight.

She's just too deeply unpleasant about everyone else. And I don't think its sensible to reward such behaviour with gentleness or understanding, I can't quite turn my cheek that far I'm afraid! In real life if I knew her I'd be polite to her face and minimize all occasions where she could spout her hate, and close her down when I couldn't avoid it. So, in her public life that's what I do, I don't read her stuff, follow her on Twitter or see her segments on breakfast tv.
