I agree with everything you say.
I s...Dear eckie <br /><br />I agree with everything you say.<br /><br />I saw the Katie Price and Peter Andre show being a fan of neither but as I watched it, I found myself genuinely liking Peter Andre.<br /><br />The shit that guy put up with was massive and in the end I thought how lucky Price was to have him.<br /><br />Unsurprising when he left, Price’s management company went with him, left her after 5 years.<br /><br />Price doesn’t generate sympathy because she has used her disabled child to make money on reality tv shows.<br /><br />But in this case, she does have a point against Frankie Boyle and he should have exercised self control.<br /><br />I take the view the kid has done nothing wrong and as such doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment despite how horrible his mother comes across.<br /><br />Yours sincerely<br /><br />George Laird<br />The Campaign for Human Rights at Glasgow UniversityG Lairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07634338820731652821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-21857158201772717292010-12-10T06:21:47.393+00:002010-12-10T06:21:47.393+00:00I recently watched the Frankie Boyle DVD and, to b...I recently watched the Frankie Boyle DVD and, to be honest, came away only feeling guilty that I had experienced it.<br /><br />However, I don't think we can differentiate between his take on paedophilia, rape, incest, recently dead/murdered/kidnapped people and Katie Price's son. It's not as if the Harvey joke tips it over the edge, the whole show is horrifically insulting for all minorities.<br /><br />I also don't think this is a cash issue. Frankie has openly claimed this will be his last tour, his last TV show. He's not cashing in with these jokes, he's getting his most deeply offensive jokes out there before the end of his career, not because he wants to make money but because he loves to make these kinds of jokes. He actively enjoys being controversial and making people laugh.<br /><br />I used to find him funny in his less offensive days, but I now feel he's a bad ambassador for Scotland. However, you can't pick out one joke out of the collection to hold against him, you have to take the whole lot.blahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16339614017897893868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-34556548296030037962010-12-10T01:08:56.620+00:002010-12-10T01:08:56.620+00:00George.

I'd have more sympathy if she didn't use her disabled child to make money on reality tv shows or wasn't so foul mouthed on her reality tv show where she would regularly abuse 'Andre' with her potty mouth and bizarre mood swings.eckienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7972114991869354050.post-60463313525367936942010-12-10T00:26:42.804+00:002010-12-10T00:26:42.804+00:00Frankie Boyle is an 'insider' ... licence ...Frankie Boyle is an 'insider' ... licence to do what he wants...
