Even those who, in reality, cannot stand him, like Alex and Jackson
They've clearly 'learned' that Hughie is nailed on, and they're courting public opinion for their own ends by acting like they think he's all that too”
No one knows in there who the designated winner is.
Hell, no one kneos even here. In the last day I have seen here that apparently Alex is being pushed to be the winner because of his sudden boost of airtime, that Andy is being pushed because he's had 2 tasks about him in a week, that Jackson is being pushed as the winner because of his "sweet DR moments" etc...
So, which one is it? I don't think it's anyone. In the last few days, each HM has gotten the same airtime. Are they pushing for an Evelyn win because of her extra airtime too? As the group gets smaller, they concentrate on each HM more. Some Hms may get more airtime one day than the next. A few days back, Alex was the one which hogged up most of the airtime.
Also, you say Alex and Jackson can't stand him? I disagree. They may find he's the threat, but to say they can't stand him is ridiculous. First of all, Jackson has never nominated Hughie. If they do nom him it's more to do with exclusion because they get on with others more, not because they don't like him.
Perhaps they were laughing because they, you know, sort of found it funny? Just a thought, I know it's so out there, but people do laugh in the 21st Century because they find something funny, it's not all calculated.
