Be Kind - Schofield/Willoughby

The internet seems full of awful comments about Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

People should perhaps remember what happened to Caroline Flack!

#bekind is a hashtag thrown around by virtue signalling twats.

Some people are awful, and it is ok to point that out sometimes.

Absolutely agree!

This Morning will never be the same again 💔 😭

grayhairdontcare · 21/05/2023 22:12

@Otherland you honestly think PS & HW were that influential??
Give your head a wobble 😂

Yep, won't have a man presenting who who enables another man to rape a child...

I don’t watch TM and don’t care about these people.

I never signed up for the #bekind crap and cannot stand it when people write, ‘whatever happened to #bekind?’ I will be kind to those I choose thanks. Like I have always done.

What was the point of your thread op to dig the knife in deeper possibly. Rub more salt in the wounds. He had to leave too much negative publicity on his family. It's unfortunate you can't choose your family and his brother was an officer of the law.

PlacidPenelope · 21/05/2023 22:15

Both of them should have been kind to those they worked with.

Threelionsandalioness · 21/05/2023 22:16

@SophiaElizabethGrace thank you x

When i see Be Kind, i just think Be Quiet

CherryCokeFanatic · 21/05/2023 22:19

Wish it was Holly who had gone

Summerfun2023 · 21/05/2023 22:20

One last thing Holly and Philip are not feuding it's his way out without the press talking about the real reason his pedophilic brother.

PinkiOcelot · 21/05/2023 22:21

#bekind is barf inducing, twee shite.

the people to blame for Flack were the police! They took a non case through to trial for no reason what so ever!

side note: you’re allowed to say you don’t like certain tv presenters!

Domestic violence incidents should
be taken to court. There was an argument and an injured party. It’s for the court to decide whether there is a case to answer.

Did Caroline Flack lie to her spouse about her sexuality for 30 years? Did she groom a young boy? Was her brother jailed for having sex with a child and she admitted in court that she knew and didn't do anything? No, the situation is completely different.

This 👏

Yes, this is the only response I can think of too...

HowDoYouDoWhatYouDoToMeIWishIKnew · 21/05/2023 22:24

Yes we all need to #bekind, like PS was kind to his brother, by helping hide his crimes and like PS was kind to the boy he allegedly groomed.

If PS does something it won't be through the press hounding him, it will be because of the things that will come out about him now ITV won't be covering for him anymore.

LizzieSiddal · 21/05/2023 22:24

@ssd When i see Be Kind, i just think Be Quiet

This is exactly how I feel!
When schools/parents ram “be kind” down kids throats it makes me sick. DC should be told that is someone is making them feel uncomfortable or sad you do NOT have to be kind to them and they should tell an adult about it!

Nongatron · 21/05/2023 22:25

QueenBitch666 · 21/05/2023 22:02

This with bells on. Fuck #bekind

I hate bekind

Thedogscollar · 21/05/2023 22:27

Will safe my kindness for those worthy of it.
PS deserves all that's coming his way.
You reap what you sow.

NewPinkJacket · 21/05/2023 22:28

Blimey, this OP really knows how to tap the fish tank and they've had no shortage of posters obliging them.

Thepeopleversuswork · 21/05/2023 22:32

a) Not remotely comparable to Caroline Flack for reasons which should be abundantly clear.
b) These people have been paid to be in the public eye for decades, I'm not particularly invested in this decacle but they are not above public scrutiny.
c) #Bekind can get to fuck. It's just another way for women to put other women back into their box.

Porkandbeans1 · 21/05/2023 22:33

Oh do fuck off. No one ever tells men to "be kind" do they.

Mayorquimby2 · 21/05/2023 22:36

Surely his behaviour justifies him skipping the line to see the queen lying in state.

He has an obvious natural connection with her.

She did the decent thing and resigned too iirc

whynotwhatknot · 21/05/2023 22:36

dya kniow what im sick to death of be kind

the woman was an abuser im sorry she fel that was the only way out but everyone lording her as a saint really pisses me off
