to think it's finally time England deals with its Katy Hopkins problem?

[Fliptophead]

I know she feeds off publicity and the best thing really would be to ignore her until she shrivels and dies of fame starvation so I apologise for the thread but this is really too much now isn't it?

You can't understand the issue with "we need a final solution" when attached to an anti-Muslim tirade?

I don't understand it either. Anyone know what 'schofield. don't you even dare' means?

There will be people coming on here with an oh so 'innocent' I can't see what the issue was, she didn't mean it that way slant. It's sly.

Clearly she went too far even for her as she deleted it.

What's the difference between "a solution" and "a final solution" ?

Surely all solutions should be final

Someone reported her to the Police. Disgraceful, as if the Police haven't got enough to deal with today.

So all other crimes are overlooked today then? Terrorism means the end of civilised law and order for the day?

No it doesn't. And it shouldn't. She should be prosecuted.

Are people really so ignorant that they don't know what the "final solution" is???

Seriously? Some of you have no concept of basic, recent history?

Final Solution. Google it, FFS, and read a bloody book or two.

Don't be disingenuous chickpea. Final Solution is a reference to Hitler's Holocaust.

Google it, and see what the first thing is that comes up.

What KH said was despicable.

However, it seems that people are deflecting their anger over this issue onto her. Wishing harm upon someone, as people here are doing, makes you no better. It's sad that many are defending the scum who carried out this attack, yet wishing violence on KH.

She knew exactly what she was doing using "final solution" as it was the most extreme historical reference she could use in order to focus attention on herself, rather than the atrocity.

She's awful. I think that she is wired differently. I can't get my head around the stuff she says.

Prosecuting only gives her victim status which she lives.

Let her spout her hateful shite and let people with decency and integrity destroy her argument.

She thrives on the Police becoming involved because it feeds into her delusions of being persecuted for having a different opinion to the "liberal elite" aka anyone with a sense of decency.

Can we arrange for a tonne of biscuits to be delivered to our house with all our mumsnet love as an alternative?

It's sad that many are defending the scum who carried out this attack

Er, where?

What did she say that was deleted?

The 'final solution' is a pretty well known phrase, used by the Nazis in WW2 to refer to the holocaust i.e. the 'final solution' being 'extermination' of the Jews.

It is inconceivable that Hopkins wouldn't have known this and for everyone else saying they don't understand the issue, or that all solutions are 'final', read up on your history FGS.

I genuinely hate her.

When I read her "final solution comment"... Well, stomach turning, honestly.

But I don't know if silencing her will achieve anything. Won't it just make her some sort of an "icon" to some?

However, it seems that people are deflecting their anger over this issue onto her

We have plenty of emotions available for both. It's not deflected anger, its disgust at her. IT's warranted, don'tr pretend otherwise.

YANBU at all, and her hate speech that promotes hatred and violence should be dealt with as a breach of the law, giving her the full weight of "the book" as it's thrown at her.

I think that even if you didn't know the history behind that phrase- and I can admit that I didn't until now, it's pretty clear what she is alluding to. She is a vile human being. She is just like a kid that keeps doing something naughty because it's parents never discipline her. Whoever hires her NEVER holds her to account for her foul behavior. She's done this before and it wont be the last time.

@BreakWindandFire

Sorry, I worded myself wrong. I can't think straight.

I meant, every one is attacking Hopkins rather than the scum that did this. Their anger should be saved for him/her.

Their anger should be saved for him/her.

I have plenty of anger and disgust to go around. And there's certainly plenty for someone wanting to capitalize on the tragedy.

*Are people that ignorant they don't understand what final solution means?

I'm not ignorant but I didn't know the phrase and not everyone will know what it means.
People could have just clarified what it meant without turning nasty or sarcastic, thank you to people who explained what it meant without having a sly dig

Do you have a small and finite amount of anger?

Why is KH given airtime on LBC?? I mean honestly it's now the biggest commercial radio station in the UK, so it's not as if they need the 'shock' value of KH to up the ratings.

I listen to it, am listening to James o'Brien right now actually, but without fail will switch it off when she comes on.

I honestly believe she is mentally ill, and actually giving her airspace or a newspaper column is despicable.

I just don't get it.

Sorry, I worded myself wrong. I can't think straight

I know, I can't either.

I think what people are angry about is that this is probably one of the worst terrorist attacks ever on British soil and that bloody woman is standing in the corner shouting "Look at me! Look at meeeeee!"

It's not the first time she's used obvious holocaust-derived language either. Remember 'cockroaches'?
