After the shocking attacks in Manchester, let's get hatred and division off the airwaves
UPDATE: We won! Just three days into our campaign, LBC has sacked Katie Hopkins. Thanks to everyone who gave their support.
LBC and Katie Hopkins have agreed that Katie will leave LBC effective immediately.

After the shocking attack on young people enjoying a concert in Manchester last night, most of us were preoccupied with grieving the devastating loss of life and supporting those affected in whatever way we could.
But Katie Hopkins, LBC host and professional troll, immediately began whipping up hatred — attacking Muslims and calling for a ‘final solution’.
This kind of hatred and division has no place in our society, especially after such a terrible event.
UPDATE: In less than a day, we’ve already had more than 2,500 signatures on this petition.
Meanwhile, here are some companies who have been advertising on LBC:
Tesco
Boots
AA
Indeed.com
EE
More Than
Ebay
BMW
Trainline.com
Amazon
HelloYouDating.Com
Have they considered where their money is ending up?

Calling for a final solution is hate speech and incitement of the worst kind. Pity there are people willing to defend her and bleat about ‘lefties’. Where were these people when half a million Iraqi kids were killed by sanctions? Where are they when we invade countries on the basis of lies? They are nowhere, and they get all concerned when what goes around comes around.

The link to that table shows that in 2014, 24% of Egyptian Muslims believe that suicide bombings against civilians can be justified. In Turkey the figure is 18%. That’s millions of Muslims.
Katie Hopkins is right. Terrorists do not care whether we are united or divided, or whether we have democracy of whether we don’t, or whether we have ‘hope’ or whether we have ‘hate’. It is their mission to kill unbelievers and to convert western countries into Islamic states. That’s all they care about. All this crap about ‘standing together’ and ‘not afraid’ etc will absolutely have no effect on either the terrorists’ willingness or ability to kill us.

Will cease buying anything associated with LBCs sponsors & cease listening until she is gone & will spread the word. This appalling women shames a radio station I enjoyed.
