Nothing wrong with a righteous rant! I know people who don't get the whole faux bit though, which is a little scary...

>> A flying [LIFTED] << Tales from the cockpit
Half an hour into a New York to London flight, passengers in business class noticed a woman with a crying baby being brought through the curtains by a flight attendant. They looked on in mild horror as they saw the attendant direct her into an empty seat next to... James Corden.
Expecting a huge celebrity hissy fit to kick off, Corden's cabin- mates were impressed to see that he didn't say a word or make any sort of complaint. He simply put on a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, pulled an eyemask over his eyes, and turned away from her to sleep.
Pretty decent of him, right?
When the plane landed though, passengers were surprised to see Corden remain seated as the woman with the baby struggled to open the overhead locker.
And even more surprised when she turned to Corden and said "For [LIFTED]'s sake can you at least hold the baby while I get the bags down?"
The woman was his wife.
The baby was his baby.

This has cheered me up no end this morning:  I bet that [LIFTED] [LIFTED] bitch won't have to pay up personally though.

She probably thinks it's money well spent, to get her name in the papers again.

I'm not so sure. The last big payout Hopkins was required to make was paid by a newspaper because it was down to an article in the paper. I've not see anything to suggest that she was representing anyone but herself here so the liability is entirely hers. I guess she might have some sort of legal cover for this sort of eventuality (although I'd be reluctant to take her on as a client if I was an insurer).

I can't imagine any of the newspapers she drags her particular brand of fairground barker antics around would be willing to shell out £300K on her behalf when the thing she got hammered for wasn't on their time. I think that would be a pretty hard sell even for a well-respected editor to the company hierarchy.
It was on her own time, using her own social media, it's on her own head. Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.
The sad thing is she'll have to get the money back somehow, sop it probably means there's more chance of her popping up, because she'll be taking every single job she can possibly get. Hopefully editors/producers will be a bit gun shy of her (given if she did what she did in a newspaper column for example the newspaper WOULD be jointly liable) so she'll find it a bit hard. It would be.. darkly hilarious if she ended up as poor as the people she has such obvious contempt for.

I remember thinking 'She just hasn't gotten to your 'community' yet' when a gay girl in work said that hate peddler was only saying what people were thinking etc.

I only follow what I'm interested in, or tweet about geeky [LIFTED]. I can actually get to the end of my timeline!
