This morning (21/5) I received an email from a Katie Hopkins who is connected with Rebel Media. Katie wants me – and presumably thousands of others – to donate to help her defend herself against the Mayor of Brussels, who is suing her for exposing the fact that there is an ISIS terrorist hiding in the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek, a Muslim no-go area; even though the mayor herself describes Molenbeek as “a breeding ground for violence”; and even though the orchestrator of the last Paris atrocity is known to be hiding there; and even though the Mayor, Francoise Schepmans, was given a list naming the terrorists who would commit the Paris atrocity a month later. The list had Ms. Hopkin's terrorist, Salah Abdeslam, on it. But it “wasn't her job” to do anything about it. Yes. Mayor Schepmans said that!

What is wrong with this Mayor? What is wrong with Belgium? What is wrong with Europe? It could be said that they deserve all their get, because they sure as hell are not doing anything about Muslim terrorists, apart from putting out bunches of flowers, singing after the events, and muttering something about 'standing with you'. Oh, and suing someone who reveals their cowardice.

What is wrong with this Mayor? What is wrong with Belgium? What is wrong with Europe?

They did what Australia is in the process of doing now.

I gotta hand it to Ms. Hopkins: as unpleasant as she may be, she's a smart operator. Invent some ridiculously over-the-top sob story about how the nasty Mayor of Brussels is picking on you, pretend that you're just some struggling journalist instead of having more than enough wealth to defend your lies in court, and con a truck-load of money out of fawning right-wing devotees who will readily open their wallets to help poor, victimised, destitute little Katie.

It's a better con than pretending to be a Nigerian Prince... although I wouldn't put that past her.

individual,

Yes. That does seem to be happening. We only take on the worst of 'trendsetting' countries, never the best.

TL,

You would know all about 'nastiness': you are the prince of nastiness and creepiness. You are what is politely described as a 'troubled' person. You use OLO only to manoeuvre people into a position where you can sneeringly vent your bile on them in a vain attempt to make yourself relevant. It hasn't worked. You are still the loser you have always been, and always will be.

No argument, just abuse?
