That said; I do agree that it's a ridiculous way to lose so much money. She started to believe that she was untouchable in terms of any real-world consequences for her actions on Twitter, and that makes her an idiot.

As for the campaign... it would be sort of poetic, I suppose, but I suspect the main aim of it is to annoy and rile people up rather than any genuine ambition to help people. At the end of the day it probably doesn't achieve anything much at best, and actively contributes to the downwards spiral at worst. It's not part of a constructive dialogue, just more point scoring, which isn't much better than Hopkins herself.


Also... can it even work? It's not like the house has been seized by the bank, is it? She's selling it herself so she can surely simply refuse any offers until she gets one from someone who she actually wants to live there

By that going the mainstream media must owe billions.
