There are limitations put in place to protect us all and so freedom of speech is only as much freedom as the law allows. Hopkins uses her remaining rights on free speech to speak her mind and there is nothing wrong with that up to a point.
Behind closed doors we are all more likely to speak our minds with like minded people but the majority of us are brought up with self moderation; we know when its okay to say something and we understand when its inappropriate. There are very few people who could honestly succeed in life if they didn't have that moral compass or the control of self moderation; Hopkins is an exception. Lets not kid ourselves that speaking our mind will afford us more friends and enhance our career prospects because it certainly won't and Hopkins was well aware of this when she attended both St Augustine's school, Sandhurst and The Apprentice. What Hopkins does now isn't something she has always done and she only does it now because it suits its purpose and earns her a living.
I fully understand why Hopkins does what she does but if I heard people in the street talking like she does I could only assume they had a form of turrets.
