VOTE THEM OUT. Both these people refuse to interact with working class British people. They disgust me! They think they're better than other people. GET THEM OUT!!!

Shilpa stated she thought "those three girls represent British youth". That is derogatory and small minded and racist. GET HER OUT NOW!!!

Jermaine stated that the girls were nothing but "White Trash". He is a racist GET HIM OUT NOW!!!

I've had posts deleted for making this point.

I am SO FAR from being a Racist it's silly. All I am saying is, this event is a reflection of the society we live in, and it is an awkward point that needs to be addressed FAIRLY!

These not so bright and considerate British working class girls ( WHO REPRESENT NOBODY BUT THEMSELVES) are doing nothing but being themselves. They are being branded RACIST and CHAVS and will be made to feel bad about themselves for being catty and jealous, and for being working class. IS THAT FAIR? IS THAT A SOCIETY WE ALL WANT TO LIVE IN? IS THAT TOLERANT?

IF I'm missing something my mind is wide open so explain it to me...

Here's what's happening WE ARE GOING BACKWARDS. Back to victorian standards! Intolerant of poor people by self satisfied aloof snobs who have a NEED to look down on others and make them feel bad about who they are.

Drik to win!!! I love it when a plan comes together :D

I agree totally with your points and think that this entire thing shows how mad political correctness has gotten!

This whole thing has been blown out of proportion because of the colour of Shilpa's skin, if she was white it would have been fine and the bullying issue would never have been mentioned.

However since the race card has been brought in by supporters of Shilpa then I think her comments should be analysed as well however the papers seem to completely overlook them. One of which was that she couldn't marry Dirk because he was white. Now this could be seen as a cultural issue but when questioned on this issue she actually said she was free to marry whoever she wished but it was her preference that she only wanted to marry and indian man.....now I have no problem with this however I can imagine how the paper's would have reacted if a white housemate had said they wouldn't marry Shilpa because she was Indian.

It's just all crazy and I personally am voting to keep Jade in tonight as I think it's an outrage that she's been subjected to such negative publicity for simply doing what all girls her age do and gossip and argue.

Jermaine when he first went into the house said he was glad to see Shilpa
He was in the garden talking about Jackiey(Jade,s mum) and he said we have people like that in America White trash
He was talking about the argument with Jade and Shilpa and he yeah its because of her colour. I think its about time that everyone that said a racist comment is blamed.

I don't think any of them are particularly racist, they're just small minded and ignorant people. They are also locked up together in a houseful of strangers with very little food and are just starting to show their true personalities. As this is the aim of the experiment, I can't see what the problem is.

At least it gets people talking.

It is true that you can say virtually anything about white people these days and get away with it, no matter how racist it may be.

If Shilpa thinks her three tormentors represent British youth, it's probably because she's had quite a sheltered life, has never travelled alone before and has never been to England before.

In Jades case we just build up people like her into role models!!!
Dumb working class girl done good! - We say it's okay for you to be uneducated and small minded. - What a great role model for the kids today, who now think that fame is only a TV show or song audition away, why bother to learn at school, why bother to repect others!! - Then are we so surprised things like this happen?!?!

The example you give on Shilpa is not racist so far as I can see. The example you give on Jermaine is valid, except that he was, I believe referring to the Goodys - Jade and her mother. People refer to "White Trash" all the time eg in relation to Britney - so surely so can he?!

I totally agree! To add to what you said:
Shilpa laughed and mocked the way Jo spoke when Jo said 'whale'
Jermaine was the first to point out and he repeatedly said it that he and Shilpa should stick together because of their colour.
They are both racist! GET THEM OUT!

Yes, there is a lot of racism in it... Shilpa too had her part of it. Let me ask you - why we're not going to Africa or cambodia for shows ? Why we're not making films like Lagaan or Rang de Basanti where we proudly mingle with Eritrians or Mongolians or falling in love with them ? We are desparate to get white people's attention (pardon me.... Arabs, Central Asians, all are English and American fans :-)..we forget everything when they smile on us and say helleww !!!!) Why we're not thinking that we're all gifted with different qualities, which if we try can develop and be proud about ?, We Asians and Africans are just retarded and slow because, the white came out of the middle age darkness first. And it is human that we always try to exploit others..

Just we should be proud about ourselves and believe in ourselves, we don't want anybody's approval or attention, do not go there anymore for fun.......

we do not like it, Shilpa is one among us, let her learn to protect herself from fucked up in public..
