I didn't agree towards her argument with Katie. Yes she's got the money to fund for the private care hire but she has just as much right as anybody else with a disabled child to get the benefit from the government. Why should she have to pay for this?

Hopkins causes unnecessary drama and if it was Michelle or Calum who was doing what Katie P was doing she would be agreeing with them all of the way.

My view is Katie P has paided tax her whole life so she is entitled to have something out of the system its not like she is a dole dosser with no willingness to work and just waste there money on drugs and alcohol

Exactly I think we finally agree on something adamski

[sampvt]

yes £1000 A FRIGGIN DAY.....to take her son to a school in another borough. My grandsons disabled and his mum pays all the costs. I am going to check into this now.

I dont agree with someone as wealthy as Katie P getting a government subsidy but if she's entitled to it then its not for anyone to comment. Hopkins is far too righteous, far too sanctimonious, far to far up her own a*re and thinks she is in any position to tell people how to live their lives. Katie H needs to take up her grievance up with the government department responsible and not with Pricey.

a grand a day doesn't seem realistic, if it is funded by the government it should be to a local school not a big round trip. Something fishy there and KH was right to raise an eyebrow

He is disabled and will need a special school not a random one

What else do you expect from Hopkins?

its still worthy of a raised eyebrow, and you can bet someone from the council will be looking in to it tomorrow

She is not breaking the law her son is entitled to help

[Lstan]

perhaps i heard it wrong but i heard it was £1000 a day to drive him to school-that seems very expensive. its a bit more understanable if its the price of the school admission.

A disabled child needs around the clock care. If the mother is the main carer of that child then she will be subsidized for doing so, regardless of how rich the family is. If the mother isn't the main carer then its the governments responsibility to provide funds for that child care. The money is their to help the child. Why should a rich person have to pay out of their own pocket when they have paid their taxes like everyone else?

Oh rubbish. She isn't breaking the law and she deserves subsidies. She's not exactly a benefit sponger...she has a disabled child for christ sake.

[Pink Pegasus]

Did Katie P not say that it wasn't just the cost of the driver, but that he also had a carer or a nurse who had to constantly accompany him on these trips too? That could account for the high costs. Maybe I took her up wrong though.

Welfare bashing is Hopkins favourite sport

No your right that is exactly what she said

[the truth]

bully Hopkins wasn't even in the conversation but had to butt in with her ignorance....she doesn't know Harvey or the complexity of the situation, as always she jumps in judges throws cheap insults without having a clue about what shes talking about. shes an embarrassing attention seeking bigot. one thing this show has done is expose the 2 katies...bully Hopkins the vile shallow pernicious stupid ignorant bbullying bigot........Katie price justa vapid space of nothingness.......utter bores

I can see it would be a huge cost so. I don't have any problem with anybody getting government help for a disabled child. I also think Katie P had a good point that due to the nature of her career her income is not really a fixed thing. She could earn lots one year and very little the next. She also pays a huge amount of tax already on what she does earn. Don't really see a problem with it.

price made a fair defence.....the real weakness is with the loopholes in the government aid....surely a person that wealthy should be means tested. its pretty crazy. most poor families cant help care at home for their dying parents, yet a person with 40 million gets this much aid, albeit for a disabled boy. most people are means tested and if their income changes or falls they are reassessed. surely this should be the case for this millionaires...but Hopkins of course dived into someone elses conversation and jumped to conclusions as always

I have great sympathy for any carer of a disable child and they all deserve the support they get from the government.

Was disappointed in Katie Hopkins tonight. Katie P has payed taxes, she's not a benefit scrounger, so if she needs a bit of help from the government with her disabled son, then who is Katie to question that?

shes doesn't even question though, she just jumps to judgement without even knowing half the detail. that's not intelligent that's plain moronic
