A word is just a word, it is the intent that turns it into a racist incident. After last series any form of racism, a word or comment was bound to have serious implications and Emily should have been aware of this is. She is after all an intelligent girl.

Just been on the site. Shabnam has had all her clothes and make up removed and has been given some plain clothes and is not allowed to wear any make up or customise her temporary wardrobe. Can`t wait to see what she looks like without all her make up!! Will be funny if she is still like this when the new guy comes in on Friday!!

Muhahahahaha...........

I don't think she will be happy but like you say it will be interesting to see what she looks like

Did anyone see BB Big Mouth last night? George Galloway presented it and I must say it wasn't bad, it wasn't crude or as mad as when Russell Brand presented it in the past.

Well I was absolutely fuming about this last night, and have made a complaint to ofcom about it.

Emily was foolish, I sympathise with her as she was trying to be cool and hip, it backfired. Channel 4 IMO were right to remove her, however, after she said what she said, Emily stated that she was not the only person to use that word in the house, to which Charley said "no I've used it, but I can because I'm a n****r" Now that in my opinion is completely wrong. Not only that, but then Channel 4 removed one of the two people that have used (Charley admitted to prior use of the word) a racially abusive word. What were the reasons behind their decision to remove one person, and not both, or none. They based their decision purely and simply on the colour of Emily's skin, THAT IS RACIST IN ITSELF. One rule for one, one for another.

Nobody should be allowed to use that word, and anybody who does should be punished, not just white people.

Well put, There is a whole lot of talk about racial equality but this is far from it.
