He thought it was the first time a girl was prime minister nothing wrong with that.

There definitely is considering it's basic general knowledge

Headie 18-07-2016 09:32 PM

He's losing a lot of fans after tonight and rightly so :clap1:

It's not like Maggie T is the most famous woman in recent years? Lmao

Withano 18-07-2016 09:32 PM

Hes just a twat, no redeemable qualities whatsoever. Might be worse than Cristian..

Shaun 18-07-2016 09:33 PM

Not really much excusing his ignorance when the public's punchbag Laura has heard of her.

Queen of intelligence imo

Ashley. 18-07-2016 09:36 PM

I find it hard to believe that, in his 20+ years of existence, he has never once heard of Margaret Thatcher.

Maybe so but there's always some people who have no clue about the history about prime ministers etc and who is who.

Shaun 18-07-2016 09:37 PM

She dominated the news for months when she died, stop excusing your favourite being a dumbass.

I'm not excusing it because it actually is embarrassing on his behalf and it shows no intelligence but I don't believe he was shocked that a woman is pm because they are female. So there really isn't anything awful for not remembering/not knowing that stuff.

He's an utter moron and blatant sexist

Cristian was likable imo, Jackson is awful

Jason. 18-07-2016 10:01 PM

I remember when Marco was evicted he said something along the lines of "Georgina's just a gyal, Marco's my boy, she's only a girl" or something along the lines of that :suspect:

EJECT ITTT!

Jackson is basically Cristian with a megaphone

Time 18-07-2016 10:37 PM

Such a twat

smudgie 18-07-2016 10:40 PM

A tad thick all round to be honest. :idc:

Mitchell 18-07-2016 10:41 PM

So he knows who Dappy is but not Margaret Thatcher? Can we have a referendum on deporting him?

Cristian wasn't ****ing stupid though and didn't cry anytime things didn't go his way.

Jamie89 18-07-2016 10:48 PM

When he said it, I assumed he meant it in a sexist way, like it just came out without him thinking first, and he didn't say 'first' when he said it... it was only when Sam reacted to it that he said his comment was because he hadn't realised there was one before... but I actually think that was him trying to backtrack a sexist comment, rather than it necessarily being that he genuinely didn't know about Thatcher. That's how it came across to me anyway. And I find it hard to believe that even Jackson wouldn't have known about her.

This is exactly how I saw it. Nice one, Jamie.

Jack_ 18-07-2016 11:02 PM

On most things I'd oppose sexism in all forms but hey, our last female prime minister was a disaster so...

Maybe it was a dig at Thatcher but then he tried to play dumb? :hehe:

Clootie Dumpling 19-07-2016 05:16 AM

I thin he's just generally pretty ignorant, like most of the HMs; one of the 'What? 1979? I wasn't even born then' brigade, who think it's acceptable to be badly educated with insufficient curiosity to increase their general knowledge.
