I've been all sarcastic and negative on the other threads, so I feel I should at least say something nice, at least because whether you hate her or not, whether this whole circus annoys you or if it doesn't, today two young children have been left without a mother.
And that's a tragedy no matter who the mother is.
That last bit sounded insulting, I'm sorry if you took it that way, I didn't mean it to be.
Why do you have a problem with that? Many celebrities do the same - many famous people can be said to be selling a part of themselves - hell, going to work can be said to be selling a part of yourself - you hawk out your time and effort for money
The major difference here seems be one of snobbery and hypocricy
She was a council estate girl with a big mouth, and many people do not like that - yet when we see her criticised most heavily for that it is by people using far harsher words than she ever did
It all stinks of hypocricy - if people do not like her or the attention she wanted then why are YOU talking about it?
I'm tried of Jade is a saint. When all she was chav trash who had the misfortune of getting cancer at a young age. That doesn't change what she was...chav trash who never did anything to better herself.
my probelm isnt people agreeing with me, its the vile way he speaks about a dead woman, whos 2 children are left behind and will one day read things like this...she hasnt doe anything to the other poster, so theres no neeed to be so hateful! Thats all i meant!
Then say that and dont tell people to post elswhere as you dont the authority to do that.
Also, what you may read as hateful may just be a point of view. An internet forum is a text based communication method and you cannot infer how people feel when you read their comments.
Hmmm.....obviously it's unfortunate, but if I'm completely honest, I wasn't sad or shocked when I read the news this morning. I don't mean that in a nasty way --- I just wasn't, don't know why.
All the best to her family and close friends though.
A lot of people resent her for the money she made; they jealous as hell.
It's okay, I know, no one isn't going to admit to that though...
Why do people say that? Money is not the end all -be all. Pablo Escobar was a hell of a lot richer than Jade Goody but I am not envious of they way either person made their money.
When I followed my mother's hearse as she was driven to the cemetary, some miles away, I observed a strange phenomenon. So many strangers crossed themselves, bowed their heads or , for an older generation of men, removed their hats as the cortege made its progress throught the streets. They did not know my mother. They were simply showing compassion and a mark of respect for the passing of a fellow human being. Compassion and a sense of common humanity is sadly missing from those who think it appropriate to make spiteful and derogatory remarks about a young woman who died today. Their callous remarks proves conclusively that they lack even the barest modicum of common decency and humanity.

She did plenty to make sure she bettered her kids lives though. They're set to get a good education, which she never had.

A mother has died young - that´s tragic.
The Gweedy Circus will be with us for a while yet -that´s horrific.

Completely agree here.
I was no fan of Jade Goody, but she was a human being like everybody else and deserves to be treated as such, in both life and death.
My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and family.

Very good post..someone who speak sense in this place!
I wasn't a fan, and didn't really like her, but I still feel really sorry for her kids. It must be terrible for them to lose their mum on mothers day, as it would be for anyone.

I don`t know whether to laugh or cry.......

You definitely seem to be able to relate to her intellectually.
Then say that and dont tell people to post elswhere as you dont the authority to do that.

Thank goodness for that
Although I doubt that's the last headline there'll be with her name on it
All the best to her family and close friends though.
Thanks

Well, Easter's coming up. Is there a cave in Epping Memorial Park?
She got some of the money for kids. My guess is some of that money will end up with her drug addled mother and her bully husband.
Completely agree here.

It is for a lot of people, hence the bitterness.

Yes, what happened to our stiff upper lips? Is global warming affecting our national temperament?
Let us hope that the money goes to where it is intended
