Carphone Warehouse have pulled their sponsorship

ruty · 18/01/2007 15:51

oh dotcotton i don't know whether to laugh or cry.

mummylin2495 · 18/01/2007 15:51

the boos and the cheers are a part of what happens when someone gets evicted.jade will no doubt be expecting cheers and ..........well we will see

Cashncarry · 18/01/2007 15:51

Agree with LucyJones - the best way to deal with this situation is to get them out pronto. Obviously, C4 are not considering this because dragging it out and leaving the decision to the view means more ££ for them

Blimey Mummylin - that's a bit uncalled for

Cashncarry · 18/01/2007 15:52

LucyJones - do you think that makes us bleedin' heart liberals

mummylin2495 · 18/01/2007 15:54

what is uncalled for ,i have my view and i am allowed to say it ,same as you are,we dont all have to agree with each other to write on here

katierocket · 18/01/2007 15:54

I did laugh at the response of the channel 5 chief exec who said that the programme had challenged Danielle and Jade about their behaviour and questionned them and both completely denied being racist. Oh, that's OK then, because if someone says they're not racist then they're not. I don't hear the BNP admitting to be racist.

Actually I think it's just a case of pure ignorance rather than racisim.

JoolsToo · 18/01/2007 15:54

we're all laughing at how thick these people are but what does it say about our education system

Blu · 18/01/2007 15:55

I'm not sure newspaper headlines should be used as the 'evidence' of anyhting - remember when jade was in BB and the papers used the most horrible horrible language about her...and she won. So she could reasonably assume a similiar onslaught to be not in accord with the public vote.

katierocket · 18/01/2007 15:55

Channel 4 exec obviously...

katierocket · 18/01/2007 15:56

I agree Blu, I bet there are lots of people watching who will vote for Jade.

Blu · 18/01/2007 15:56

acyually, did she win? perhaps not...but she went on to be hugely popular.

katierocket · 18/01/2007 15:56

Last time she was on BB though she came across as very dim and ignorant but in a naive kind of way. This time she is coming across as vile and embittered.

katierocket · 18/01/2007 15:57

No she didn't win but she is still the most financically successful 'housemate' ever.

JoolsToo · 18/01/2007 15:58

I hope this isn't too crass - just read on DS

OXO want Jade Goody to advertise their product!

----------------

They're launching a Jade Goody cube...........

It's called the laughing stock!

Cashncarry · 18/01/2007 15:58

Mummylin - a lot of us are disagreeing with each other (Aloha and I for instance) but making personal comments is (in my view) a bit below the belt.

I didn't mean to cause offence - I've never had a ruck with anyone here (yet!).

Actually this is my first time taking part in an opinions type thread.

mummylin2495 · 18/01/2007 15:59

everybody change over to bisto granules !

lulumama · 18/01/2007 15:59

agree with lucyjones

also , the sad thing is, they will come out of the house and their meedja advisors will tell them to make an abject apology, a donation to anti racism and anti bullying charities , they will no doubt do some groveling magazine interviews and donate their fee, publicly and magnanimously to a worthy cause...pay lip service to their misdeeds..then it will all be quietly swept away and things will carry on as per...

well, i hope it doesn;t for those girls.....they do not deserve the oxygen of publicity they so clearly thrive on ...

and as for Danielle's f**k off home comment and the way her jaw clanged open when she was caught out by BB....

katierocket · 18/01/2007 16:00

I think Dannielle is particularly loathsome.

lulumama · 18/01/2007 16:02

sorry if i am repeating but this is a quick moving thread !

mummylin2495 · 18/01/2007 16:03

i dont think that by saying she can be jades friend is a really personal attack.i am not attacking lj at all.

Freckle · 18/01/2007 16:04

Actually I think the most effective response to Jade coming out of the house would be for everyone to turn their backs and totally ignore her.

Means no one is stooping to her level, she doesn't get to play "victim" and it gets across how people feel about her in a very direct and non-abusive way.

LucyJones · 18/01/2007 16:05

thanks cashncarry for sticking up for me
I am surprised Mummylin counts 'Lucyjones you can be her friend if you want' as a view....

You're welcome LucyJones

Cashncarry · 18/01/2007 16:08

Freckle - what a dignified way to handle it that would be. Why do I get the feeling that would never happen?!
