I truly do not mean this to be another Meghan bashing thread...

I need to know that one.

Ah! I see Katie Hopkins that persona non grata. Supporter of fascism, white supremacy and all things likely to destroy this country. I see now where this is all coming from. Bile filled tweet about the subject.

Eh?!

Ah! I have founbd the Katie Hopkins tweet. This is it.

1) why is she holding the baby like a slippery haddock

2) why is she dressed in my garden bench cover?

3) why are we paying for this person?

That is not the tweet I put on this thread! The tweet I up was retweeted by a very nice person I follow. I'm pretty sure Katie Hopkins didn't come into it!

Her tweet is bitchy. I don't even look at her stuff.

The tweet I put up was by someone called Cripes Suzette. No idea who she is. As I say it was retweeted.

How long did it take you to find that Katie Hopkins tweet Whitewave?

The thing is people see things and now, instead of commenting to friends they go online. The fact is, in those pictures she does look very awkward holding the baby. But this is something we talk about with friends. Work colleagie of mine came in to the office as if she was holding a UXB and never really got the hang of it. She'd just laugh. My sister, (childless) never mastered the holding a baby lark. Now it just gets bandied about on Twitter and the like and all of a sudden people get called vile and horrid etc etc. Now in RL someone may say that so and so holds her baby in a strange way ... there will be agreement. It's not meant nastily. It's just what humans do. Talk about each other.

Here is another one of Cripes Suzettes tweet.

#DuchessMeghan must have been sleeping the day they did "Mother & Baby" in acting class.

Director: You're in a park. You're holding a baby. Go!
Meghan: Line?
Director: Just improvise!
Meghan: (thinking: "I once carried a 10 pound bag of potatoes. Same difference".) Okay. Ready!

I make no comment. And I will not put a grin.

Minniemoo all babies are different.Some are definitely easier to hold than others.

Remember the days when babies were always held in a lying down position?

I was looking at twitter about the Tommy Robinson thugs attacking the bbc and remain folk and guess who popped up in support of their violence. I clicked on her threads and that just popped up. Hate filled vile fascist.

Wouldn't touch Katie Hopkins with a bargepole. Eurgh! [shudder]

My younger daughter can’t have children, has many Godchildren, when holding the baby at the font or at a family gathering and someone plonks a baby in her arms her left leg trembles so much , so amusing, she is terrified of
small babies

I only do funny.

Oh God Annie. I felt like that about my first grandson. Terrified I'd drop him, or he'd stop breathing against my shoulder.

He seemed so little.

Hopkins is something I would scrape off the bottom of my shoe.

Katie Hopkins is just horrible.

I showed the picture to DH saying I felt sorry for Meghan and he replied, 'You have to remember she's an actress!'

Blimey, that's quite profound for him.

He is quite a big chap isn't he Archie? I previously couldn't care less but the nastiness towards Megan is a bit grim.

He is quite bonny!
However small they are, they can make your arms ache if you're standing and holding them.

Katie Hopkins is poisonous - it's frightening that some people actually like what she says about anything.

All I can say is when I was a new first time mother I would have hated some of my ineptitude to be caught on camera for the world to see. Not enough practice with dolls, most of mine were paper dolls anyway so now transferable skills

I do wonder at all these people who just happened to be looking at such and such a tweet, and then this one, really vile, popped up.
Why do you look them in the first place, and why carry on reading them?

Yes, eazybee.

I had a wry smile too at the explanation. Wondered the same myself.

Scouring the internet for vile ammunition to use against other posters maybe?

Thanks goodness I'm not on Twatter, sorry Twitter if the likes of Katie H are on there.

She's easily avoided. Don't think I've come across her. I have come across things said about her though.

There are some nice people on Twitter.
