James Jordan is very racist, his baiting of Audley Harrison made that clear.

I think a lot of us were thinking it considering past threads that have been posted here on the matter.

That wasn't evidence of racism, that was just evidence of James Jordan being a t**t.

A bit of an assumption

Agreed. The way he baited Audley was horrible to watch. How he managed to stop himself lamping the odious little toad against such provocation is beyond me. If he had he probably would have won.

It didn't occur to me for a nanosecond until I saw the title of this thread, to be honest.

Anybody who starts shouting racism every time a person talks to, does or says anything to a black housemate needs to grow up a bit. We would end up with nobody talking to a black (or person of another race) person for fear of being called racist all the time, then where would we be - apartheid!

Nobody would think 'racist' if they had picked a white housemate, James Cosmo was second on their list from the sound of it. Would that have made them ageist?

How about sexist - picking a woman over a man?

It's all rather ridiculous an idea in my opinion. They thought she seemed rather dull, or lacklustre, so they picked her.

James made the decision, despite the protests of many of the others, because he thought that it would lead to her kicking off. Because that is what black women do, you see.

It's what housemates do, generally.

Nobody mentioned it until you did.
Why? Do you want someone to cry racism?

Why provoke if nothing has given you reason to?

The reality is you can only call it racist if it exists... and as long as James Jordan is in there - IT EXISTS!!
