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).

Racism in Britain coming to the fore…

Well I never! In only a few days of watching TV, I was witnessing a mass evolution of what can and can’t be said on TV! A Newsnight debate yesterday hosted by Jeremy Paxman showed some unveiled racism from certain “intellectual” quarters towards Scottish people and a blatant opposition to Gordon Brown because he is Scottish. Not a debate about whether or not economically, militarily and feasibly; the union is right or wrong – but because he is Scottish. Forget the fact he has been chancellor for ages, his kids are going to be brought up as English (and Tony Blair was raised and educated in Scotland) but he is SCOTTISH.

BB clips today and stupid, ignorant and seemingly racist talk about Shilpa. All really beg the question why are people these days being forced to take sides on the basis of race? As children we never did and at university we certainly didn’t.
