and why? I don’t like her but I’m wondering why so many are praising her and pay to hear her speak ?

Because they are very stupid

MasterBeth · 19/12/2024 20:14

Because they are massive racists?

Tagyoureit · 19/12/2024 20:16

God lord, imagine being so thick you pay money to hear her speak!! It those that covid should have culled!

I assumed from the title that she was standing trial somewhere for hate crimes, but I guess she must have some kind of ‘show’…

Because they are so highly, highly inadequate in their own lives they need to hear someone tell them they are better than other people, and will literally pay to be made feel slightly better about their sad existences. Katie gladly obliged and fleeces them for all they are worth because she is a moral-less slug.

More money than sense?

DontBiteTheCat · 19/12/2024 20:19

Coz she speaks the truth, innit? 🙄

Fools and their money are easily parted…

MadmansLibrary · 19/12/2024 20:19

If I eat too much blue cheese tonight I might end up seeing her in my nightmares. That's the closest I'd get to it though.

Thetalesofbeedlethebard · 19/12/2024 20:20

No, dear God just no...can you imagine it? She LOVES the sound of her own voice so the speech would go on for hours...endless hours of torture to the ears 😩

ThatSchoolOfficeLady · 19/12/2024 20:21

I would rather lick the floor of an abattoir.

CaptainMyCaptain · 19/12/2024 20:21

I'd rather gouge my own eyes out.

Manara · 19/12/2024 20:23

Is it mainly men? Racists seem to fancy her.

ExtraOnions · 19/12/2024 20:24

David Icke used to (maybe still does) used to sell-out his speaking tours, and he thinks we have been invaded by Lizard People.

…there’s no accounting

I'd pay good money to see her tried for hate crimes!

She's a loathsome woman.

ilovesooty · 19/12/2024 20:26

You'd have to pay me a lot of money to go and see her. Even then I'd feel dirty.

TheHateIsNotGood · 19/12/2024 20:26

No idea KH was doing a 'speaking tour', now I do thanks to the angst. Not that I'll be going to listen to her speak, nor go listen to anyone speak, as that's not something I'm interested in; unless possibly a 'stand up' comedy act.

It does amuse me that so many get riled by KH - it actually drives her 'appearances' and ticket sales. Amazing really what a small town girl from the SW can do.

EffortlesslyInelegant · 19/12/2024 20:26

I'd rather be force-fed my own gizzards than spend a single second listening to that smug self-satisfied hate-filled racist.

GallyGaff · 19/12/2024 20:27

She says the vile things that vile people want to hear.

madaboutpurple · 19/12/2024 20:30

I met David Icke once and he seems to be a clever man. He held a door open for me. I was at an event.

WalterdelaMare · 19/12/2024 20:32

I think she has quite a following on YouTube. I don’t feel strongly about her one way or the other.

BalladOfBarry · 19/12/2024 20:32

Lols at you asking on Mumsnet 😂

I might have gone to see that

NantesElephant · 19/12/2024 20:35

Maybe some of them are going to smuggle rotten eggs in to hurl at her?

TheHateIsNotGood · 19/12/2024 20:36

@WalterdelaMare and quite why KH reaches the extents of 'being offended' barometers is lost on me when there are so many other things going on that breaches the boundaries of actual concern.
