By focusing purely on Jade's 'racism' for a few days, have Endemol managed to deflect attention away from the real issue, which was why they tolerated bullying in the Big Brother house for a full week without doing anything to stop it. The racism was borderline, the bullying was not.

I agree totally. The fact she has been dropped from the anti bullying campaign she was fronting speaks volumes. Whether racist or not, Jade was disgusting towards Shilpa. People all over the UK (and world wide) are bullied on a daily basis, it is soul destroying and sometimes leads to suicide. Why channel 4 thought it was entertaining is beyond me,and I hope the bullying element to the show is not going to be lost in the heat of the racism row. Neither should be tolerated by society

i'm with you on this one, whilst there certainly were some rascist comments made, the real issue was bullying and i think jade has been made the scapegoat, but Jo, danielle and jack were just as bad if not worse, it was only that jade was very vocal with shilpa which led to the huge rows that all the attention being focused on her.

in every single big brother there has been bullying between housemates and nothing has been said- for example look at the biatch Grace last year, she and her gang were horrible to that he/she that was in there. Why is it any different this time?

wasn't it interesting to watch though
it has started everyone talking
important moments can come from low brow stuff
what happened to Shilpa was nasty vicious bullying and we couldn't take our eyes off it
