Katie Hopkins says well done to the 1% in rant at poor people who "can't work velcro"

Katie Hopkins has heaped praise on Britain's richest 1% despite the Panama Papers row over global mass tax avoidance.

The professional loudmouth claimed wealthy, cunning people were needed because millions of Brits are so stupid they can't even work velcro.

Ex-Apprentice contestant Ms Hopkins waded in as Tory ministers led a backlash over the tax avoidance "witch hunt" against David Cameron .

The Conservative leader published details of his £1.3million income today in a move that will effectively force future PMs to do the same.

All these weasels exposed for what they are for a change, and not in a position for at least a short time to screw the public some more.

Even the Media Monopoly couldn't keep a lid on the story's most shocking revelations: The size and scope of offshore tax evasion.

Oh. Happy day!
