all these older housemates asked was to be left to sleep in the early hours, but no even that was too much to ask of this me me me selfish chavvy generation of benefit dependents

People fought wars so the generations that followed could have freedom of speech , be able to live in a multiple cultural society and could have the freedom to be gay if they want to, if you worked in a coal mine and it was so awful then why would you want anyone of the younger generation to have to o it swell that's just silly , progress means people don't have to do such awful manual work.

Plus don't be so narrow and think that everyone is on benefits , we pay our taxes so older people can draw a state pension , society supports each other.

Just because you had a hard life doesn't mean you deserve respect , it means we learn from you and make sure ours is better.

Did I say that I don't respect people for their deeds or accomplishments? All I said was that respect is not automatically granted on the grounds of age. None of these older housemates have done any of the things you've mentioned, so I have literally no idea what you're banging on about. In fact, most if today's middle aged and older generation weren't even alive during the second world war, let alone old enough to fight in it. They are in fact the self-entitled baby boomers who rode the economic uptide that followed the 80s, got themselves into unsustainable debt and ruined the economy. round of applause for our elders.

Climb off of your high horse and open your eyes.

Well said. You have hit the nail right on the head.
Also
Bruce should not have gone in there thinking it was a holiday.
But I do not like people who wake people up when they are fast asleep and that is what BB did the other night causing a rumpus among the housemates.

Oh come on, is it really Les Battersby's fault that we are suffering a recession????

He might be hot but he's a yes man he goes along with the flow.

Can't stand mario, he's a pleb , no respect for him or chavvy Charlotte
Bruce is a bit of a grumpy old man, but they should remember there'd are other house mates in

No, I was only pointing out that the suggestion that "our elders" are deserving of unquestioning respect is ridiculous, and the reasoning that this is because they fought for us in WW2 is even more ridiculous.

[Vanessa]

It's a yes from me!

The slimey bore deserves to be out more than any of those that are up this week.

no one said unquestioning respect, why lie?
