Katie Hopkins Sacked

[SNIP]
Well that's obviously not true, since the person who's making that statement stated very clearly that Katie Kopkins just saying sorry wasn't enough for them and started the court case on that basis. They're just reframing themself as a super-nice person who somehow never expected the results of their victory and feels bad about it. Good politics, I suppose.

Yeah, BURN THE WITCH, some random Joe on the OcUK forum, with absolutely zero knowledge has condemned her as beyond redemption.

Oh this is beautiful :D

What a disgusting woman - She's put herself in this position.
 
Mixed feelings. A lot of what she says has an amount of truth but is wrapped up in a nasty little package. I'm sure most of how she says what she says is done so in order to gain outrage and clicks.

The above example on finances is largely true and a huge percentage of people in personal debt only have themselves to blame. Is it true of everyone? No of course not.
 
Yeah but tbf how many people get a 100k bill with a 28 day deadline

That's just for Jack Monroe. Hopkins costs have been conservatively estimated at 300k+.

Read up on the case. There was never an opportunity to "just apologise". That was made very clear very publically right from the start.

I have. Open the judgement PDF. Read sections 17 and 20.
 
Meh, don't like the woman, but the fact her settlement figure is a quarter of what was asked is the take home point.

She can go back to her mephitic style of conversations.
 
She is a horrible person but people don't seem to get that her career relies on people getting outraged by the toxic she spews. If everyone made an effort to ignore what she says and not share it on social media or media outlets post it themselves she should would quickly fade into obscurity.

horse ****. she needed to recant her mistake on twitter OR he'd take her to court - predictably she was too pig headed, refused, and look what it's cost her. Oh and £5k to support the needy, ironically where she's ended up.

Seems crazy a 24k settlement comes with 100k+ court fees
This. Should be capped at some point. How do these figures end up stretching into such great numbers? You prevent your case, submit it to a judge and it be done. Instead its back and frow, months/years of lawyers speaking to one another claiming more expenses...

Nothing new.

Charles Dickens mocked such injustice of the cost of justice in Bleak House with a (fictional) case regarding a large inheritance being abandoned when the legal costs absorb the entire sum.
 
She was a fool to let it go as far as she did, however stubborn or right she might have felt she was.

A large retailer I used to work for in the UK would settle with disgruntled employees 99% of the time instead of letting it go to a tribunal, however much of a **** take the employee's claim was. It was simple economics, the payout was usually a fraction of what the legal costs would be.

She should have swallowed her false sense of pride.

However like previously mentioned I pity her financial position and take no joy out of her circumstances. Whatever your thoughts and feelings are on her, there are children impacted by this, and that is where my thought goes to.

She wasn't right at all, she completely mixed up two people.

It's like me accusing Obama of grabbing pussies.

I believe she has a daughter, so yes I wouldn't want an innocent kid to suffer for something their parents has caused, but that happens around the country (and World) on a daily basis....

Yes this is old news, but not everyone gets taunted over their financial predicament. Thats the difference......

The spiel she sells is based on taunting people with the problems they have.

Literally one page back we have a tweet from her blaming people in debt for their debt. Well this is her debt and her fault... serious lack of defence against these taunts.
