The many problems with Katie Hopkins offering to tour schools

Won't somebody think of the children?

By Nesrine Malik

I have a question. Is English actually Katie Hopkins’ first language? I ask because she has just released a flyer promoting a school tour, and it contained spelling mistakes. It contained spelling mistakes, on a flyer targeted at schools.

I mean, for one spelling mistake to find its way all the way into a final document could just be extreme sloppiness, but three suggests some manner of problem. The sentences are also sort of half written, words are randomly capitalised, and spaces are missing after full stops and colons.
