Whilst this is going to make David happy, I suspect that Vivienne's motives aren't really about wishing David happy birthday........
If anybody saw her recent appearance on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, they'll know that - especially at the moment - she is making a lot of appearances to promote her manifesto, in essence 'hijacking' her status as a fashion designer to voice her opinions. Recently she has been campaigning the theories of environmentalist James Lovelock - about climate change, about how we're all headed straight for the dumper - and like Jonathan Ross, I think she will have seen Big Brother as a great opportunity to get her message out to those who might never have shown any interest. Hence her making a big point of mentioning her manifesto, the Active Resistance.

I don't know who this Westwood person is -- fashion designer? -- but it seems to me (and the guy I quoted) that she simply used this to gain some free publicity -- she's supposed to be wishing David happy birthday, not blowing her trumpet about some shitty campaign -- does anybody here honestly think David has a clue, or even cares, about climate change and all that stuff?

What a bizarre idea that one can hijack one's own status!!! Oh well, I guess the doubters will always clutch at straws! She has strong and well founded beliefs and has every right to expound them through any channel available to her. Just as eggdavid continues to explound his/hers through the limited channels he/she has access to.
