Katie Hopkins is a dreadful creature who carved out a 'career' by touting the age-old "I'm just saying what everyone else is thinking …" mantra - except she wasn't.
What she was doing was finding a contentious subject and then being as sensationally objectionable as she could manage, both in print and on air.
Amongst her more expensive examples of an extreme absence of judgement, she cost one employer, The Mail On Line £150,000 in damages after she libeled an innocent Muslim family as terrorists.
She then lost a personal legal battle with journalist Jack Monroe - £24,000 damages, and an eye-watering £107,000 in legal costs, and then she was kicked off LBC for remarks she made after the Manchester Arena bomb outrage.
I believe she now lives abroad, after having to sell her family home to meet her legal costs debt.
Ms. Hopkins refers to herself as 'The Jesus Of The Outspoken', others refer to her as a Professional Troll.
Whatever, and wherever she is, I believe Ms. Hopkins has parlayed a seriously nasty bigoted ignorant boorish shallow opinionated personality into a flash-in-the-pan career with right wing media outlets who now see her as a complete pariah.
Lining up someone what that CV against an admittedly opinionated, but otherwise apparently balanced and determined Apprentice contestant less than half her age, seems to me to be stretching credulity beyond its snapping point by several measures.
