Bid to purchase Hopkins mansion

Fundraisers want to buy Katie Hopkins’s £1 million mansion – to transform it into a shelter for refugees and asylumseekers.

Hopkins has put her fivebedroom family home on the market after losing an expensive libel case.

But a Scott Walker hopes a joint effort by the public will be enough to purchase the property in defiance of Hopkins’s “disgusting views on immigrants and refugees”. The commentator was axed from her column with Mail Online after a string of controversies.
