Default Could pitting the UK against the USA cause real tensions in the real world?

I think with all the migrants trying to come through the tunnel at the moment then people are already a bit tuned up to max with xenophobic feelings. Now BB putting one nation against another could inflame tensions further.

Imagine an American kid living in the UK or vice versa they may give kids ideas of the them and us and isolated that child in the school yard.

I hope after a couple of weeks the house merges into a house just full of people and this nationalism can be put to bed. Who cares what country your from. We did not have this sort of thing going on last year.

A lot of adults in the UK don't even know that Big Brother exists, so why would a primary school child?

Nobody cares about the show enough for it to affect society.

Yeah it's not going to impact on anything. The show is no where near as big as it was, like said most people don't even know it still exists on TV!

Anyone who would use the theme of a Channel 5 game show as an excuse to cause trouble, is the sort of person who would find ANY excuse to cause trouble.

No matter if it was big brother or the price of peas.

Here in the USA we have been informed that Obama has already re targeted the missile and issued and alert

No it won't cause tension.. but...setting it up the way they have it likely gives the British contestants a patriotic advantage. which is fine with me

Of course it will!

The Queen will rage if the US wins a task and will ring up Obama and ask him "do you have a sex tape?"

Yes, both governments will obviously be watching it with a furious fervour and their fingers will on the nuke launch buttons for when their side doesn't win. CBB is going to be the death of us all.

CBB helps the USA by harboring some reality Z-listers for us while we make America great again.

Thanks, UK!
