    You missed one.

    I'm sure she didn't intend to have the meaning of the holocaust underlying her "final solution" words.

    She still writes for the Daily Mail, doesn't she?
    Hopefully not for much longer.

      How can you be so sure? Is she a certified ignoramus?

        Seriously? and seriously?
        She knew exactly what she was saying and doing. Am for free speech but that one is just a truly nasty piece of work with no redeeming features.
        The Daily Mail with its historic record and clickbait stories won't have much of a problem with her, but if might be another thing if the advertisers start to object.

          Yes, and Yes.

          No one with half a brain really thinks that the solution to the terrorism problem is to send the millions of muslims in this country into gas chambers and kill them all. To suggest, as some have, that that is what Katie Hopkins really meant is an groundless insult.

            It is a weird coincidence that a rabble rousing far right commentator would use the phrase in the context of a religious minority.

              It is probably in her mind a lot, and then it just slipped out.
              Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                Does my wife count?

                Or sister in law?

                Or maybe one of my daughters?

                For someone who tries to act so progressive and liberal you seem to have quickly put me in a box and labelled it.

                  She knew what she was saying, and as a self-publicist who relies on people talking about her, whether she believes it or not is not her point. She meant to say it, she lives off publicity, and this has people talking about her, therefore she is happy.
                  Whatever she does next, people will want to read about it so they can agree, or be shocked.
                  Just another intolerant right wing hate preacher, like Abu Hamza.

                    She's a shock jock & that's what she does, I guess. Never listened to her myself but no doubt she'll be popping up again somewhere else sometime soon. Talksport, probably.

                      She has form when it comes to advocating violence:

                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
