There's an awful lot of sh!te in this thread about how "white people" suffer racism too, and to those people I would say you just don't have a clue.

Gavin, I'm shocked that someone who normally makes intelligent and well thought out statements actually posted that.

You were clearly either VERY drunk or suffering from a VERY blonde moment..


I'm quite shocked as well by that statement.

I personally have been picked on due to being white & when I did work experience in a Racial Equality centre they said it happens to white people just like it does to Asian & Black people

Yes, a ridiculous statement by Gavin there.

Anyway, I tell you who gets on my nerves... Nicky. She is the most humourless person in there. Yes, she's got her wits about her and is very intellegent but lighten up!

how is it a ridiculous statement, white people in England will never have to suffer the same discrimination as non-whites in their lifetime - fact.

No, I love Nicky.


Not for the entertainment value granted, but for not being a mis-guided fame whore like most the others.


BTW - Nominations

Gerry and Seany have chosen the twins to be the other two HMs that will nominate

True but "white people" can still suffer racist remarks, that's what we're saying. You're picking a pointless arguement....again. Rolling Eyes

Well, to Stuart, Steve and Johnny - if you seriously think you know *anything* about being discriminated against because of your race, then I'd like to hear it.

Being 35 years of age I've spent enough years with those who truly have faced discrimination. How dare you, Stuart, patronise me about what I have come to understand.

Disagree with me if you choose, but don't even think about dismissing my opinion as "misunderstood".

You may understand my point in years to come, but I'm beggining to doubt you have the capacity.

Shame on you.

This is all rather stupid, can everyone stop bickering and get on with discussing Big Brother? Rolling Eyes

Who is everyone liking at the moment? I still like Chanelle, I find her funny. Hate Ziggy though.

I'm a Nicky fan. I like her a lot - I agree that she doesn't seem to be a fame whore, unlike Charley who I'm starting to dislike more and more. I also despise Seany after what he did to poor Lesley.

BB down to 2.6m last night. Britains Got Talent got 6.4m.

Wonder if the "twist" is starting to back fire. I think a more equal house from the start would have been preferable.

I've never made an issue out of race. I've never in my life made a racist remark to anyone. But it seems that your opinion is very, very biased. It's very arrogant that you think you can make such sweeping statements. I know someone very well who was, well, the victim of racial hatred.

So it has happened. It does happen. To people of all different races.
