Can I just ask does anyone consider this as a racist comment?

"Is you wife black?"

"Of course"

Not common! That poor white school boy who was beaten with a hammer by 10 asian men may not agree!

He's in this country and should conduct himself as so. Trash is one thing, adding the 'white' makes it wrong.

He might have done better to say 'trailer trash' (which means much the same).

But it's still not in the same league as the girls.

does the media ever show ANY headline on the hundreds of the "Asian" people have died and been injured within the past years. White people have killed and attacked sikhs thinking there muslims, it was on digg.com only yeasterday.

He is not equal to all, he very rudely ignored Jade but not Shilpa.

huh?

That's religion not race.

No racism is right.. whether it is white to black , black to white or whatever.

It should not be measured by which is worst is that which is most common, from any party it is wrong full stop. It should not be argued over that just because racism towards white people is not as commonly heard of it is therefore 'not that bad'

What is religion?

She was saying go to the slums to find out what real life is all about because Shilpa, through her own comments, doesn't seem to be aware of the poverty in India. This is the problem, people are only repeating sections of what is said!

Blimey, I really don't like the way people are spinning this against Jermaine to make him look like the Jade group.

He seems one of the most sensible, level-headed people in there.

I'm afraid this what happens in racism debates.

Good example - that was appalling and occasionally such cases are not dealt with as seriously as when a black person is attacked.

However

1) there is a far higher proportion (per population) of attacks against racial minorities and

2) it is simply ludicrous to place Jermaine's comments in the same bracket

No-one should belittle anti-white racism, but nor should it be used as a smokescreen to deny serious problems

You don't really think Jade is a great authority on poverty in India? She probably couldn't even point to it on a map.

"White Trash" is basically like calling someone an English version of "Chav" so I don't think it's necessarily racist. If people want to be silly, you can interpret anything as being bloody well racist. Anyone fancy a game of chess... you can be black OH SORRY.

[rex3]

The media is something completely different therefore philosophically should be left out of racism debates, becuase they are run by people that are not white-english, black or asian. They have different agendas for causing up conflicts in Britain which determines everything.

Ultimately Jade is going to get hung for doing little more than stick up for herself. People seem to forget how rude Shilpa was to her mother for not being able to pronounce her name, a problem even Davina had, and taking offence, again rudely, when she was called princess, which if I were a young lady, I would find very flattering.

[Sarvepalli777]

James, she clearly knows more about it than Shilpa!

oh my god, it took how much days of Shipla, Sherpel, Shilma and then the patronising PRINCESS? Then asking if she lives in the slums (who is that dumb too ask a question like that), shes a celeb how could she live in the slums

Admin deleted that. It was discuss the housemates, not the other forum members. James

Trust me, the press is most certainly White-British!

thats exactly what the sun would like you to believe (hence the chavvy lieterature) becuase that is there target audience, becuase there are more white-british here than any other race!!!!!!!!! so they'll sell more.

[Sarvepalli777]

I will not leave or shut my mouth.

[James]

Being called a 'princess' usually means 'spoilt', not a compliment.

Shilpa was more than patient with Jackiey about the name - how demeaning to describe her as 'the Indian'. Jackiey was continually horrible to her - she's the one I have the main problem over about this racism thing.

Jackiey has been saying really awful violent things in magazines about Shilpa since coming out the house also.
