Possibly the most bizarre, pointless, self-absorbed piece of nonsense ever passed off as journalism

Don't see anything wrong with that at all. Yes, it serves little point but that's the same with large portions of modern newspapers. Murder is a tragedy, yes, but I found the entire attention given to this case quite odd in the first place as I mentioned in the original thread about the murder.
Murders are, unfortunately, quite a common occurance now and I think that's what the article is trying to say. They are so common that it doesn't really stay in the memory of people for very long. And why should it really?
 
best comments I've ever seen on the daily mail in the top rated section.

and revived a bit of hope of humanity

I have never reading such a trite piece of journelism. Why would you find it necessary to comment on the food ...I wish she had been in a lovelier place in her last hours...and make a comment that she obviously aspired to a better life by buying a 'finest range' pizza? And to trivilise the tragic story by mentioning you tried to get away with paying with a button is outrageous. That is such an insenstive article and I can't believe the Mail found it necessary to publish it, you really such stick to writing fashion article there are plenty of good profeesional writers to cover the serious items.

It's nothing other than weird and creepy that you chose to hang around the murder scene and the surrounding area. Totally out of order

I'm horrified that the Mail sent the self obsessed Liz Jones to do this article ! What was the point? So she can complain about the pub where Jo met her friends ? So she can make "funny" remarks about the killer maybe wanting to avoid the bridge toll? What is the headline supposed to mean - is she accusing the police of not trying? Of course she even has to turn it round to her usual me me me by moaning about her veggie burger and not being able to cross the bridge as she didn't have the right money . Pathetic!

Everything about this piece makes me uncomfortable. What an ill-conceived concept. It is cringe-worthy from start to finish and should never have found its way to print. Astonished by the level of crassness displayed by the author.

Oh yuk, Liz Jones retraces the steps of a murdered girl and still manges to make the article about Liz and her snobbish looking down on the rest of the world and how the live and work. Is she proud of making money writing this?

The theory is the killer took the long route from the flat to where he dumped the body to avoid the CCTV cameras. Perhaps he also wanted to avoid the 50p toll.

I don’t have 50p and try tossing 30p and a White Company button into the bucket. It doesn’t work.
There is now an angry queue behind me. Isn’t it interesting that you can snatch a young woman’s life away from her in the most violent, painful, frightening way possible, take away her future children, her future Christmases, take away everything she loves, and yet there are elaborate systems in place to ensure you do not cross a bridge for only 30 pence?

Just... bizarre.
 
Finally, a man in a taxi jumps out, and runs to me brandishing a 50p piece.

‘Not all men are monsters,’ he says, grinning.

Either they had a long drawn out conversation at the toll about her being there or she just made that incident up.
 
The dailymail writers are a bunch of nutters, notice how most articles don't even tell you who wrote them, they know it is that bad!

And the stuff they write about, total dross complaining over nothing. However this stupid bint has no shame it seems. Very badly written and just weird.

Paper is blatently aimed at racist pensioners. Sooner they die...

What a strange and empty article. Similar to a lot of content these days, content which is lapped up by the great British public.
