Katie Hopkins is a strong role model

Katie Hopkins is an inspiration and role model to women, and to business people in general.

I cannnot believe the witchhunt that has followed in the wake of Katie's resignation from the apprentice. It should be the contrary. She was the only candidate ever on the apprentice who could have succeeded Sir Alan - If she had wanted to.

Yes, she can be a bit of a pantomime villain at times - I thought this even before she announced it. Indeed, it appears to have been her strategy - she was on TV after all - at the end of the day, she was playing to the cameras, which is very sassy.

Katie the mother. Katie the ex-army lietenant. Katie the shrewd, intelligent, adaptable, focused, strong business woman. Katie, the fit, toned athelete. Katie the adventurous, confident, determined, sexual woman.

Us women are famed for having many talents, for multi-tasking, for being multi-talented, yet her skill set was too advanced in too many areas for the general press to accept.

Rather than being applauded as talented, multi-skilled, and ambitious, she was destroyed as only the mass media can do.

Yes, she was from good breeding stock, though to hold that against her is pure prejudice.

Yes people were worried that she kept too much of herself under wraps, they didn't know what she wanted. Who of us are brutally honest about our true desires on our CVs, in our intervews, and in our business dealings?

She came under the usual catty press fire of not being quite supermodel enough. "too eighties" etc. How many women are confident enough to wear near-white suits as she was? Most of us blend in in black. How many women would have the balls to flirt with Sir Alan? How many women can really compete with her raw sexuality?

Yes she has made decisions in her life that have been ruthless, self-seeking and hurt others. That is why so many people have fond it so easy to "boo-hiss" her: because few people haven't done something 'bad' to get what they want.

I would love to contact Katie. I know I could never be as strong as her, yet her strength and her multi-facetedness (as mother, businesswoman extraordinaire, and passionate attractive libidinous adventurous sex siren, and many other facets beside) make her quite a role model for us ladies, from teenagers to the mature woman.

Who amongs us is able to master all of our facets: the motherly, wifely, sex-goddess, friend, bisiness woman, fitness enthusiast, and extra-curricular aspects well? I would never hope to, though we are all expected to and measured agaist these ideals.

Here is a lady who has gone out and worked for what she wants. We should support her in this - it has taken dedication, self-sacrifice, gruelling hard work, "drop-dead shrewdness" or sassiness, flexibility, multi-talentedness, some eyelash-batting, and pure tenacity.

Katie Hopkins is one of the strongest role models for young ladies and not-so-young ladies alike.

Had she been male, noone would have questioned her ruthlessness. She is so much besides that.

I look forward to seeing where she ends up.

I hope the catty, crowd-pleasing, mildly misogynistic tendencies of the mass media do not hinder her rise to greatness.

Met office - what were you thinking in letting her go? Sacking her should be an insult to every woman who has ever tried to fulfil the roles of mother, wife, business woman and beyond.

Katie Hopkins should not have been pressurised to leave the Apprentice. Indeed, she was the only candidate ever with the skill set to be able to succeed Sir Alan and become CEO of Amstrad if that is what she wanted. I suspect she wanted more.

The Met office was foolish for sacking Katie Hopkins due to cowardice (madia pressure, 'image' concerns). As a female, I am saddened by their treatment of her.

To all women who sign this petition, thank you for your independence of thought. Keep up your strength, determination, and passion. Keep your head high, your smile broad, and your eyes flirtatious. To all men who sign this petition, us the bold, strong, smiling, caring, multitalented, flirtatious ladies owe you a gratitude.

Katie - I don't know how to contact you but good luck in all you do - I hope and expect huge things from you.

"Oh yes we do!"
