Im not being manipulated by anyone. I'm just watching the programme and voting for who I feel like voting for. Simples.

'This is what I don't get, that people don't care someone is on a game show instead of doing the job they were elected to do. Baffling.'

MPs go on holiday all the time, ours certainly has been away in the past. It's only 3 weeks not like he's awol for 6 months. I'm sure he has senior staff to sign off essential stuff.

@limitedperiodonly this is it. It’s a game. A show. People thought matt would shriek and fail

he didn’t. He succeeded and many people hate that for that

JaneJeffer · 27/11/2022 11:51

He's getting paid @Janiie it's not a holiday

Willmafrockfit · 27/11/2022 11:51

as i said, the papers hate this result!

CatLoaf · 27/11/2022 11:51

No no @Ponesta, it's all because of TikTok mind control

PatientZorro · 27/11/2022 11:53

That’s the delicious icing on the cake @Willmafrockfit!

I'm surprised that people that hate MH so much seem to want to spend all their time thinking about him and constantly posting about him, haven't they got a life.

Matt striding up the Cyclone was genuinely hilarious - does he even mean to be funny? Or is it accidental?

I thought it was funny, wasnt it just to walk out like a super hero. Mike rugby tackling him wasnt funny at all.

CatLoaf · 27/11/2022 12:00

Mike MH tackle looked back breaking 😳

This thread has been weird all the ‘loving’ for MH but this article puts it in perspective.

There has been a concerted PR campaign (emails and TikToks) so I presume some of that has infiltrated here.

A previous poster said people were voting FOR MH because they are fed up of the media manipulating MH image. How wrong you were. You are falling for the PR supplying the media.

Never been on TikTok, haven't seen any positive PR about him, seen lots of negative stuff particularly ITV mornings.

I've never watched the show before and I watched as I thought it would be funny to see him making a fool of himself. I'm not a Conservative voter, I voted remain.

I think he's done well on the programme and the only place I've followed about it is here and I've found the indignant ones berating anyone voting for him hilarious. I hope the frothers keep calm tonight, don't want anyone making themselves ill.

Yes it did didn't it, nasty, spiteful and totally unnecessary, he wouldnt have done that to Jill. Horrible man.

Willmafrockfit · 27/11/2022 12:06

agree @ancientgran
ha ha stay away frothers

XanaduKira · 27/11/2022 12:07

JaneJeffer · 27/11/2022 11:46

but I still don't understand wtf a serving politician is doing in a gameshow in the jungle, rather than doing his actual job?
This is what I don't get, that people don't care someone is on a game show instead of doing the job they were elected to do. Baffling.

I don't think people should allow Twitter to ruin this thread as it's got nothing to do with it.

Completely agree.

Same.

So offensive to be told you’re a victim of manipulation if you’re not forever crying about MH being on the show.

I also think it’s human nature to go against what’s being unreasonably demanded of us. I see it in my kids - if I bark orders at them they’re far less likely to do something than if I say nothing or say it in a different way. Human adults do not like being told what they must think and feel, and they don’t like being told they’re wrong for thinking a certain way, it tends to make us go the other way not in the direction of the person barking the demand

In other news I realised who Jill reminds me of - Gina McKee

@RocketsMagnificent7 Yep this year has been so negative. These threads are usually fun. We all have our faves, those we don't like but it's never usually as negative and combative as this years threads have been

I agree. It's been made political by putting a sitting politician in there which shouldn't have happened. We've had enough of politicians in centre stage through Brexit, pandemic and now cost-of living crisis. Give us back our light entertainment WITHOUT politicians in please!!

Well said!

Mike rugby tackling MH was the highlight of the whole show for me.

I genuinely thought he’d be how Seann ended up being - a great big pansy arse crying about trials.

The fact he’s been almost robotic in his competency at the trials has surprised me but politics aside he’s vocal about his dyslexia and I absolutely love the thought of dyslexic children watching this show and realising that they can be as intelligent and competent as MH because intelligence isn’t always steeped in SPAG (my nephew has dyslexia and honestly you’d think neat handwriting was the fucking be all and end all of intelligence by the way his school goes on). That can’t be a bad thing

Yes Mike was horrible

JaneJeffer · 27/11/2022 12:18

I find all the words used to describe people who don't like Hancock ridiculous as well. Frothing, exploding, etc. i just find him really boring and if he wins it will be boring. That's all.
