Jade Goody dying of cancer

Just like the death of Diana, a new celebrity tragedy exposes the spiritual and moral abyss that exists in today’s Britain.

I’m not moralising here. Nor am I asking for people to be any more or any less spiritual or moral than they feel they should be.

But in ripping Jade apart and now resurrecting her as a dying saintly figure, Britain has shown to want a moral and spiritual figurehead by any means necessary (hence creating one out of previously villified and hounded celebs like Diana and Jade) but only once they’ve done time (by being totally shredded by the media) and also been subjected to collective public disapproval.

Once the public has discerned that the person is worse than they are, in as many ways as possible…then, and only then it seems, they can be permitted into the gallery of modern day saints (managed and approved by publicists, agents and record label executives).
