>> Muslims are not the new jews <<
Knight and Burchill's bitch-fight
India Knight wrote in her last Sunday Times
column that "Muslims are the new Jews", where
she attacked negative attitudes towards the veil.
Julie Burchill wrote in reply to the paper's
letters page:
Dear India Knight, I dare you to walk into any
mosque... and spread your tidings that "Muslims
are the new Jews". You'll be lucky if you get out
alive. PS I see that your new book is a compilation
of dirty bits from novels. I'd love to know how
this fits in with your new found love of
feminine modesty and discretion.
The subsequent email exchange:
To Julie Burchill From India Knight.
Oh for fuck's sake. I don't have a "newfound
love of modesty and discretion" - I just don't
despise people on the basis of what they wear.
To: India Knight From Julie Burchill
What, not even he working class slags in cropped
tops you're forever slagging off you hypocritical
snob?
To: Julie Burchill from India Knight
I do NOT slag off working class people in crop
tops you fucking loon. Where? When? Why would I
slag them off? I am many things but I am not a
snob. God, you're driving me mad. Go Away.
To: India Knight From Julie Burchill
I wrote to the letters page, not YOU, you
stalking cretin. Why don't you fuck off and
turn yet another of your husbands gay?
And to think they get paid for it! I'm ten times ruder than those two and I'm cheap.
Relive the Burchill v Paglia fax scrap.

You can get paid for being a rude bitch? Why did no one tell me this sooner? Where do I interview?
Anyone who dislikes Julie Burchill can't be all bad. Except for Tony Parsons of course.
Fat Sparrow, There's no way you are a real sparrow as you wouldn't be able to type on a keyboard. It's time to stop living the lie. As for Tony Parsons, at least he's in touch with his crap side.
She is a real Sparrow! Morrissey taught her to type years ago. It was in Smash Hits.
shit, I genuinely didn't plan for the, 'are you a real lobster' comeback.
Matt -- "Fat Sparrow, There's no way you are a real sparrow as you wouldn't be able to type on a keyboard."
It's called "hunt and peck." Perhaps you've heard of it.
"shit, I genuinely didn't plan for the, 'are you a real lobster' comeback."
A lobster, huh? Get in ma belly! Don't even think about a quip involving butter.
