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?

Fred refers to the famous research about “jihad” which means “struggle.” It can be personal, moral, inner whatever you like and in of itself does not equal blowing people up. I guess Fred is a card carrying Daily Mail or Daily Express reader.

Wanting to take this vile creature off air is not simply the left wanting to silence the debate. It is not a debate, it is a string of vile comment just to get a reaction. Debate needs rational discourse, with information, listening, attempting to understand each other. None of that is possible with Hopkins

Henry, according to the survey you just quoted 5-45% of muslims (depending on the country) think suicide bombings of civilian target can be OK. How is that supposed to disprove “Freds” claim?
