Please, good women (and men) of Mumsnet - help get Rent a Gob off our screens once and for all as I'm fed up searching for the remote to switch her off or put her on mute (mute is fun, she doesn't half gurn) Grin

Signed it already, as a Glaswegian her remarks about Scotland mortality rates were the final straw for me.

Noooo. I don't post on KH threads as I don't like feeding trolls. I fear that this petition will make Katie Hopkins the troll even stronger, thereby subjecting us and, more importantly, her DC, to even more unpleasantness.Sad

I don't think I have ever seen her on the tv, although I have heard of her.

Banning people is wrong. She is entitled to her opinion whether you like it or not.

The Nazi's liked to ban things they didn't like, so in the interests of keeping our freedom of speech, I certainly won't be signing the petition.

You have a choice, to not listen if she ever appears on your tv, radio etc.

Nah - can't be bothered to keep reaching for the off switch, far better that she just gets taken off air. It's hardly banning her - and as for liking the petition to Nazi Germany...

Erm - you have heard of freedom of speech haven't you?

Can't just ban people you don't like. Unfortunately. If you could I'd be trying to ban Michael Gove.

We have bigger issues than Katie Hopkins and her dodgy,probably fake, opinions. She's a professional troll who wields no more power than that.

The above mentioned Mr Gove's however is a whole lot more worrying. The bonkers opinions, elitist attitude, actual power etc.

I would like to make Katie Hopkins live in eternity with Alex 'The Knob' Salmond - and shag him nightly. That would serve her right.

I bet she's absolutely lovely, soft, cuddly and understanding. Aww. And only is unpleasant to make money.

Poor Katie is just another victim of an unkind, materialistic culture that seeks to pit us against eachother and I think she and her DCs deserve our pity. Aww.

I feel I should start a "Give the Katie Hopkins in your Life a Big Hug" petition.Grin

Hi, SirChenjin.

Would you like us to move this into the petitions noticeboard? Threads in chat vanish, threads in the petitions noticeboard don't.
