Grenfell Tower Fire Disaster and Katie Hopkins 'Final Solution' for Muslims
Politics / Mainstream Media Jun 17, 2017 - 01:19 AM GMTThe residents Grenfell Tower have paid the heavy price for the cladding refurbishment craze that has been sweeping Britain for the past decade. One of 30 to 50 year old social housing tower blocks, many of which that should have been demolished but instead are being dolled up with cladding and insulation to reduce energy costs to make them externally more appealing to both residents, visitors and most importantly nearby affluent areas as was the case with Grenfell Tower, a pocket of social housing in Kensington, probably the most affluent area of Britain.
Whilst the number of victims of the disaster has yet to be fully realised with estimates ranging from 75 to over 100. However, it is evident form the reporting that at least half of the victims of the fire are likely to have been muslim. The relevance of which is that it was only a few weeks ago serial bigot Katie Hopkins called for a 'final solution' for Britain's muslims.
For the few who do not know what the 'final solution' means. It was the NAZI policy for the extermination of European Jews by varied means that culminated in the gas chambers and incineration ovens of the concentration camps. Which is what Katie Hopkins implied for Britain's muslim population and which was rebroadcast across the mainstream media, so that everyone were fully aware of Katie Hopkins sentiments, especially as this was just the latest in a whole avalanche of tweets directed at Britain's muslim population.
Whilst so far I have resisted the urge to see what has spewed out of her mouth in response to the Grenfell Tower horror. Though I suspect having lost her job at LBC following her earlier outrage, she will have learned a valuable lesson and temporarily at least toned down her rhetoric and thus be less likely to air such views in public at least in case of losing more of her revenue streams.
My thoughts of course are for the victims and with their families of what looks like to have been a very preventable catastrophic fire, rather than be sidetracked by the likes of this hate preacher.
