About 20 years ago, that 'final solution' remark would have got her instantly fired from any mainstream media outlets. It's a shocking sign of the times that it took four days for LBC to give her the boot and the Mail has done nothing. I know it's the Mail but if she'd said that in the 80s or 90s, she'd be out on her ear.

A copy of her tweet,

The now-deleted tweet, made in the hours after the explosion, read: "22 dead - number rising. Schofield. Don't you even dare. Do not be a part of the problem. We need a final solution #Machester (sic)."

In too much of a hurry to post it probably,
#Machester :facepalm:

Going to be a bit tougher for her to pay off her twitter libel bill now, when will she learn ?

Before anyone tries to claim that this is against principle of free speech - it really isn't.
She has the right to say stuff (assuming this doesn't count as incitement and I am sure it doesn't) however vile.
And LBC have the right to decide not to pay her to say that stuff.

She made a huge error of judgement, any way you look at it. And LBC sacked her for it.
Which is all good.

The Rothermere press were always rather keen on the Final Solution.

The final solution was obviously to sack her.

isnt it? just to be clear, are all instances of "final solution" to be banned, because i need to redo some documentation if that's the case.
