I have to say that this house wouldn't be nearly as entertaining if Ann wasn't around. I don't particularly want her to win because I also really like Shane L and Shane J but I would definitely love to see her for the final four. Johnny is growing on me for standing up to Ashleys whining as well, especially when they were talking drunken nonsense.

As Johnny put it, Ann doesn't wake up and plot ways to be as nasty as she can, she's just a straight shooter and I couldn't put it better myself. The guy went from wet noodle to a damn decent individual who surprisingly isn't a sheep. I'm also glad he didn't just jump in with the Lord of the flies veto on Ann being up for eviction.

I don't necessarily like some of her views or political alignment but she's definitely not nasty for the sake of it. It does make me laugh that the majority really believe she takes things personally after saying she doesn't. She put it best herself because at the end of the day, the bb house is a game and they have to pick someone and so picking Maggie was not some viciously evil maneuver like a lot of people seem to believe. It could just have easily been Jess to but I suspect it was Maggie because she expected better of her being an older, wiser lady.

Do I agree with Anns logic on it? No not really but it's as solid a reason as Andrew leaving skid marks on the window is...

My point is that they are all just appeasing bb at the end of the day and for their sake and the publics sake they both just need to get over it.

I mean I quite like Jess as well but I couldn't believe she started crying over someone claiming that she hadn't washed the dishes. My dear, **** the dishes and Ann basically reassured her then as well for pointing out that she shouldn't care what people think and of course she's right.

I don't like John much but to be honest I don't blame him for some of his mysogonist, sexist and homophobic sounding conversations. I still don't believe he is any of those things and those are the kinds of conversations where it's hard to say the right thing. One of my best friends is gay and I worked with him for two years where we had to share a room together and sometimes I might say something not pc but it wouldn't bother him because his attitude was very laid back like Shane J in the house. Honestly if the majority of people never got overly offensive for mistakes then the gay and transgenda society would be far more accepted and appreciated for helping those that aren't to understand. I love this house because India was the perfect example of a bad attitude and Shane J has the perfect example of the right attitude. Very open to debate rather than shutdown without discussion.

It does sadden me that the people who shout for tolerance and equality the most are often the least tolerant of other people's opinions. It saddens me because I have good friends who have been treated unfairly because they're different.

Great house so far but Ann is far less of a witch than the public surmise. At this point it seems more like a political witch hunt even though she's not been an mp for quite some time. I do feel as if many don their Labour kkk uniforms and just see red with so much hatred for her.

I guess my point is that my political views don't necessarily align with my own families politics but I don't hate them for it and their views don't decide my relationship with them so why can't other people do the same. Political and moral thinking is never going to align 100 percent between individuals and I feel as if Ann has been made out to be the black sheep of the house. By tiptoeing around her in the way that they have they've put themselves in the position of disliking her. It's not just about her for being her like they try to make it seem.

Hmm, yeah, I agree with most of what you said but I don't get why you think Ann is unpopular outside the house?

She's not, people love her as a housemate.

I've browsed quite a few other forums and people absolutely detest her in droves even in the thousands with no exaggeration. I simply couldn't comprehend why so I guess I just wanted to share my thoughts about it, especially as it seems more and more likely that she could be kicked out with an extremely unfair back door eviction.

I think the people who detest her are probably politically motivated and don't quite get her or actually LISTEN to her, there have been several things I thought she was against but since BB have found out differently as she explained her views,also people really don't like people who hit a few nails on the head,I think she is lovely and harmless,but some wont like her simply because she was an MP.

The Shanes are in 1st and second now with Ann third. I think if she gets passed tonight she will be back at the top

oh they over took her? still though 3rd favourite doesn't suggest she's disliked

I'd say she's only on 3rd favourite because there's a chance of her going tonight.

Doesn't seem to be the case on reddit or Twitter from what I can tell though.

[Lilac hills]

Ann is super popular she’s topping polls and I’d consider myself slightly left leaning and I can still enjoy her with some of her views aside, she’s my fave housemate

[Cal.]

Ann and Amanda for the final!

[Philanthropite]

Well at least Ann survived the back door, crisis averted?

[Binbin]

If the winner is chosen for a combination of curvey spine and resolute character, then Ann should win this whole thing! It would shake up the reality TV world, and catapult Ann to Prime Minister.

[Crimson Dynamo]

If one of the young idiots win (J< A< J or A)then it will be the end of BB

they need someone of substance to win for credibility
