So as such, while ever she is still around spouting her bigoted bile, moves like this that are designed to humiliate her and every single person that for some reason follows her baseless, reactionary nonsense and show them up for the subhumans that they - are very much welcome.
The point is she shouldn't have been booked in the first place, Katie Hopkins has no place in any kind of debate on anything. She isn't an academic, she isn't a social researcher, she isn't a politician, she's a human troll. She has no right to be in such an institution and the fact she was booked says more about the university than anything else to be quite honest.

But she only became famous in the first place because of people reacting to her, and when people hire her, that's all they want, a reaction, because like you say, she isn't an academic or expert etc in anything. She has nothing else to offer other than the potential to grab attention. The only way she'd go away is if people stopped reacting to her and stopped giving her attention imo
