Why are some people not allowed to die with the dignity they deserve?
Jade Goody, the real peoples' princess from Bermondsey (Diana who?) has faced her iminent demise with from cancer with dignity. Selflessly hogging the front pages, along with pages two, four, five six and seven...colour supplement to come later post mortem, when what does the jealous bitch, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Natasha Richardson go & do? But bang her head on a skiing trip, to out-death our Jade!
Well I'm not falling for that! Sunday is Mothers Day, & what could be more fitting for the saintly former ignorant racist bitch Miss Goody-two-shoes than croaking it before the kids have brought up the tea and toast on a tray? That should out-trump the upstart from the Redgrave clan. Jade wants her front page spotlight back!
Never mind Trafalgar Square. There's another empty plinth in London. Standing outside Rotherhithe library. There is nothing on it. Not anymore. Formerly a statue of'Bermondsey Boy' Tommy Steele, it was 'arf inched & melted down for scrap a couple of decades ago. how about a national campaign for our Jade to be erected there.... the only problem being who the fuck is actually going to contribute to it? (Oh, shit! I'm starting to get serious here!) Yes, it is terribly sad that she is dying so young from cancer, but who on earth is she that warrants so many column inches? Heart of gold though. She's 'doing it for the kids'. Scraping together every single penny so that they can have a future. Not to mention her new husband & her mum are looked after too. I wonder how long the money will last with them? He's a mockney-cockney wideboy thug, & her mum....well! There's a saying that you can only judge as you find, and I've never met her, even though she lives in Bermondsey & I work in a public building in Bermondsey too. Until a few weeks ago. She popped in, with the two grandchildren in tow. Oh & accompanying camera crew from Live TV, who are somewhat ironically filming a documentary about Jade until she croaks it. Live until death eh? now in my line of work, where I deal with members of the public I have had to encounter some decidedly thick people to say the least, & Jade's old girl Jackie is up there with the worst. This woman is what the word stupid was invented for. It really wasn't Jade's fault that she didn't know where East Anglia was, or called Shipla Shitty (NOT a spelling mistake either!) racist names, because having now met her mother it's all clearly in her genes.
What hope her two 4 & 5 year old boys, with a nan like that? But there is 'hope'. Because it's been reported that the money Jade raises by dying will go towards their private education. If there was any shred of sympathy I had for Jade dying (& to be truthful I never had much anyway, I was just indifferent, as I don't know her. Why should I be anything else?) goes down the pan if she thinks 'looking after her kids' is buying them privilege. But if you're going to go for it let's not do it by halves. I'm quite looking forward to granny Jackie with her two grandsons at parents evening at Eton, with a Live TV camera crew not far behind. Now that-for the first time ever-would make reality television worth watching!
