...haha, I hope they spend it wisely.
Nice to see the Daily Wail being called to order ...don't you think :-)

Mikey see Gromit @ 13:39

/// It has become the most re-tweeted thing she has written on the social media,///

[Gromit]

Mike,
I think you are wrong.
The Mail have been forced to print an apology, so the same number who read the original story will see the apology.
And the retweet of Hopkins apology will go to many more than her 'fan base'.

[Answerprancer]

My take on that DB is that Gromit was meeting your (apparent) word-twisting with a plain and honest response.

[mikey4444]

Does anyone have a link to the DM page where the apology appeared ?

In the actual newspaper, not on the internet.

[Answerprancer]

AFAIU it was the Mail Online that had to make the apology.

[mikey4444]

Answerprancer....than it wasn't in the paper itself ?

Thanks AP.

[Answerprancer]

While her fans cheer, belch and raise a Stellar Artois to her ;-)

Good to see the F0_J happy, enjoy AP.

[Gromit]

Tora,
They were not FO Jihadists which is why they won the libel. Do try and keep up.

[ichkeria]

It just goes to show bile beats "sour grapes" any day :-))))))

[anneasquith]

ttt. Gets a bit carried away:-)

[anotheoldgit]

The question no one is asking is why Katie Hopkins along with the Daily Mail, choose to focus in particular on the Mahmood family?

[mikey4444]

AOG..do you really not know ?

If this family had been white, and Anglo-Saxon, than we wouldn't have heard a peep out of either Hopkins or the DM.

[ToraToraTora]

what I don't get is all you lefties spit the dummy out at the slightest un PC transgression yet you are happy to defend the most bigoted hate filled bunch on the planet. If I utter even the slightest non PC comment about LGBT for example you'd hang me from the yard arm but Islam can routinely execute gays or stone women for being raped etc and that's just fine, I don't get it.

// It is common practice to offer a link to the news article you would like to discuss. //

and no forrign language links ever ! like this
https://www.welt.de/politik/deutschland/article160462226/Berliner-Polizei-Wir-haben-den-falschen-Mann.html

this says - we have the wrong man ( rather obviously to us Brits )

Baldric and Nigh dont DO foreign languages - I cant find a foreign one for our Katie - sorry


Katie Hopkins is a kinda pin up girl for the 'usual suspects' on AB
can she - CAN she have got it wrong ever ?
surely surely not

and my god ( or should that be mein Gott ! sorry Balders and Nigh ) it is an expensive business if you do

[Peter Pedant]

// AFAIU it was the Mail Online that had to make the apology.//

you usually sue the newspaper that printed it rather than the hack as they have the Monnay !

and I am pretty sure the hack has to bend over and take the beating even if she really Meant IT in the first place ( principle of vicarious liability)
