There is a lot of seriously mentally ill people in prominent positions in this country, particularly working within the BBC, government, and organisations.

its a slur against a disabled person


EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick has been suspended by the BBC after using a slur against people with disabilities on the set of Strictly Come Dancing.

The offensive remark was made last November during filming for the BBC dance show’s flagship Blackpool week, the Sun on Sunday reported, external.

The BBC said his language was “entirely unacceptable and in no way reflects the values or standards we hold and expect”.

The newspaper said that Borthwick, who plays Jay Brown - a key long-running character on the soap - apologised for "any offence and upset".

BBC News has approached his representatives for a comment.

Disability charity Scope said Borthwick should reflect on what he said and educate himself.

"We hope he takes the opportunity to get to know the reality of disabled people's lives,” said the organisation's media manager Warren Kirwan.

Well he doesn't molest kids, so of course he isn't of the standards that the BBC would like.

and the guy that sent an antisemitic video got a glorious send off. It doesn't make what the guy above said right.

The problem i have with this is he wasn't taking aim at a diabled person, he was slagging off blackpool. So it couldn't be regarded as hate speech toward a protected group

He probably didn't even mean what he said, people do sometimes say things that they don't mean.

The BBC definitely have their morality back to front.
