He's talking about this one

There are very few people I would wish cancer on and she wasn't one of them. But I don't understand the way some sections of the country have reacted to her death.
The only truly good thing she did in her life was unintentional but she still milked that. No matter if someone is loathsome, one "good" thing doesn't change what came before. It always amazes me how people only cry and regret what they do/say once they've been called on it.
I've never liked Parkinson but agree 100% with what he said. This story should have been little more than a report on the news that an ex BB "star" died of cancer but it is nothing more than a ****ed up circus. I'm sure Gary Glitter has done something good in his life as well (awaits the "how can you compare Jade Goody to a paedophile?" reply).
I'll start off this part by saying I am republican (anti royalty). A year after Diana's death a news crew were at somewhere in London where people were again laying flowers for her. They were interviewing people about how they felt a year on. One woman said, and I paraphrase, in tears (her in tears not me) "I cry every day about her". Sickening. Is that what we can expect in a years time for Goody or will people, given time, remember her for what she really was?
If I have any sympathy for anyone in all this it's her 2 kids. The remark by someone earlier that they should be happy as they are now rich was crass. No matter what their mother was like it was not of their doing. If it had been said about that Tweed bloke then I'd have agreed.
Anyway, back to the 56k modem thread.
