Official I'm a Celebrity thread

That might explain why she wasn’t looking too happy.
I do wonder though, why some of these celebrities sign up for this show. Obviously see it as easy money & a chance to reboot a career.

I think it’s a very good point raised by the Bloodster about what the dictionary says abut the word racist or racism.

Unfortunately I don’t have an old Oxford dictionary to hand these days but I’m guessing the term racist/racism is covered by a one or two or maybe a 3 line answer?

I’m guessing what isn’t in there is calling anyone a racist who wants to stop the rubber boats, illegal immigration, or indeed someone who has a preference for his neighbours?

I’ll stand corrected and apologise though if someone proves me wrong at least it’ll put an end to all this crap about who is and who isn’t a racist or what actually is racism.

But then again in the world we live in today people know better than the Oxford dictionary so I won’t hold my breath.

Be interesting if someone could confirm if the word ‘Woke’ is in the current dictionary edition and is it an actual word or is it another one recently made up?

100% if you say you don't want to live next door to somebody simply based on their nationality, you are racist, by any definition at any time. Really simple. Like I said to you earlier I don't think that makes you an evil bigot, it makes you an entry level racist.

That’s in your opinion which I’ve already said many times over I don’t agree with you.
Hey look we’re never going to agree on this subject are we so let’s call it a day it’s getting rather boring now but it is a thread about I’m a celebrity not what constitutes to being labelled a racist.
Nothing personal by the way but I’m certainly going to ditch it I’ve said more than enough on the subject and I’m sure many others get fed up of reading stuff like this it’s human nature to disagree with others and it’ll never be settled on a football message board so I’m out. 👍

Same👍
 
Re the show, it's interesting to note that Nigel has had his butt on show twice now, the only one.

Not that I think he'll be bothered but looks like double standards by ITV.

Was watching Jimmy Bullard's golf channel yesterday and he said he absolutely despised it when he went on it and wished he hadn't.

He’s currently banned from Sunningdale Golf club for his inappropriate behaviour….of course he now regrets it and is grovelling to get them to reconsider.

I think, according to the ITV contract that they all sign, that each competitor has to stay in the jungle for at least a week in order to receive their full payment. Notwithstanding medical emergencies. So she toughed it out for a week to get her money, but I hope she hasn’t harmed herself.

Didn’t know that re the week.

I think it was very hard for her coming in knowing nobody and being from another country. She’s stuck out the worst part at the start, and good for her she’s mucking in well and cracking on 👍

Yes definitely, she just has a good aura about her.. I’m not too keen on people that are ‘in your face.’ I generally want to swat them 😂
 
Seems like the trial was the making of Jamie-Lynn. Much better since then and even the crying has dried up.
That story tonight about her child drowning & being brought back from the dead probably explains her early separation anxiety.
Always seems like the celebs really struggle at first and then seem to get used to the camp set up if they can get past the couple of weeks.
 
Macseasider said:
Jamie-Lynn to win for me.

And I agree about Sam. It's all for the cameras. If I'm wrong I dread to think what he was like as a child.

You might wish to rethink your prediction……she’s quit today “on medical grounds”. That seems to be an easy cop out these days especially as she has been saying she’s wanted to leave ever since entering the jungle. Shame really as she was good value.
 
Dodgy itv trying to stitch up Farage?

It's obvious they wouldn't want him to win, which is exactly why he should, it will be hilarious.

But he's trying to reach a new audience and given he said he might have future ambition in politics, maybe in the Conservatives, I reckon itv don't want to be the ones seen to be launching his new political career and have now tried to cut him out of the show or edit it, but sadly for them he's not the monster many thought, he's actually quite a reasonable bloke. They obviously wanted him to be the villain not come across well.

So looks like they may have gone the digging up some nonsense in the past route. All a bit suspicious to me given the timings.

It’s not his opinion, it’s a stone cold fact. That kind of prejudice is literally the unequivocal definition of racism!
 
Whilst we're on racism, it's funny many on the left seem to love throwing out the labels, but go silent when it suits them, presumably they think this sort of thing is OK?

The guys jobs not under threat, there's seemingly no outrage amongst the usual mobs, like there would be the other way.

Yet imagine it the other way round, a white person's feet wouldn't touch the floor.

In a majority white country, seeing too many white people gives the guy mental health issues apparently.

This isn't some guy on a message board, but in a position of influence at the state broadcaster.

Disgraceful. Seems you're allowed to be racist even at the BBC, as long as it's the right sort of racist.

Chris Packham is right, the treatment of animals and wildlife is vile. Its had its day, time for something else.

yep, saw him talking on the Jeremy Vine show and have to admit he made me chuckle. He was making the point you mention which of course has merit when a caller into the show agreeing with him and made the point of how he was bringing hedgehogs into his home and feeding them and Packham was nodding and voicing his approval. iI thought well that's not something which should be happening in this natural world is it?
 
Nihal is a broadcaster I can't listen to at all, he is a smarmy, insincere but thinks he's really sincere asian smashy and nicey. Nope, can't stand him.
 
There's been a mass exodus of wildlife around the camp.

The rats were heard muttering something about that obnoxious Farage bloke.

Got to say, I struggled to listen to Nihal on his 5 live show; the final straw was whilst the programme was discussing the menopause

"Newsflash! There's menopause is a male issue too. We all have mothers and sisters" and what on and on in the most patronising way possible.

The word 'newsflash;' could you be more condescending.

After that, I switch it off if he's on.

Awful broadcaster.

Right back on to the show.

Nella using camp leader to settle scores & even if it compromises the wellbeing of the camp.

Kind of sums her up

And as for those who voted for her - wow.

To be fair that Josie is a really sly too.

The two of them giggling about the food. I tell you what, the meal is all people have to look forward to all day. If Josie fcuks it up (as I suggest she will) the rest of the camp will not be laughing.

And saying that washing pots is where Fred belongs. He never made himself camp chef, and he's made every meal. How utterly disrespectful. She really is thick as mince and a dis-likable wretch of a woman.

For the record I’ve nothing at all against Romanians it was the choice of words by Nigel Farage in his comments that someone put up on here.
I don’t know any and don’t think I’ve ever met any so certainly no grudge against any of them.
But I pick and choose who I live next door to and rightly or wrongly there’s people/religions I just wouldn’t move next to so if it makes me a racist then so be it I can live with that but I still think it’s a wrong choice of wording just for choosing who your neighbour actually is and what your preferences are.

No one picks and chooses who lives next door. Certainly, I don't remember being consulted when next door bought their house.
