Anybody know why ?

In fairness, a final solution is not the same as "the final solution". One is any answer than removes the problem in question, the other is specific to the Nazis and holocaust. But I don't doubt it was deliberate in the hope of yanking chains and creating controversy, and it did; more than she figured on.

It's been a strange time for right wing commentators recently.

Kelvin MacKenzie
Katie Hopkins
Sean Hannity
Milo Yiannopoulos
Bill O'Reilly

What a...ahem...sad time.

I blame the terrorists and their puppet masters. Who do you blame?


Well I would add to that list any so called moderate Muslim who keeps schtum knowing full well who these scumbags are.

... are you going to tell me there isn't any of those?

Saying we need a final solution (to the slaughter) is not the same as saying we need THE final solution which has a very different historical overtone.
Though she would have been better not using the phrase at all

I was going to post this on a thread that I thought was relevant but that thread has disappeared.

So as Hopkins talks about a final solution ... others think actions are louder than words.

Who does it appear that no one gives a monkeys about Christians?





All together now ... of course we.....................

I didn't see that reported, truly despicable.


I abhor violence totally.

Mmmmm ...

This may have been the proverbial straw - a culmination of negative stories and therefore association for LBC and their advertisers.

I do believe that Ms. Hopkins looks for the most controversial thing to say, rather than it being what she may personally believe, because, as she has discovered, there is a lucrative reaction to such 'opinions', if you have a publicly thick skin, and she has.

We will see where she ends up.

I have to admit, I'm still a fan.

The problem with social media provocateurs is that they have to be really very clever. They have to have the linguistic and journalistic skills to take it right up to the edge, without tipping over.

The moment their employers get a hint that they may have gone over the edge, they will be jettisoned in order to protect the brand.

This is what happened to Kelvin, and this is what has happened to Katie.

The term 'final solution' has connotations. She must've realised this after the event, because she quickly deleted the tweet and replaced the phrase.

One has to hope that her salary from the Daily Mail is safe, otherwise she could be in real trouble financially.

Upwards and onwards for Katie, she will do a lot better than a tinpot London radio station. She may sometimes be a bit too strong in her views for wilting violets, but I still support her, faults and all.

I understand what you say, but doubt your analysis.

Everyone is sackable.

Be honest at least, it's obsession isn't it?
