I'm not inhuman and as an expectant father I do genuinely and sincerely sympathise with her kids, as for her husband and mother, I'll give them five minutes before they sell their stories to the tabloids and make themselves a few grimy bob.
spot on mate

JBG hits the nail on the head. and gets an extra point for using shadenfreunde in a sentence

I feel sorry for anyone with cancer but cancer aside as a person she was an evil selfish racist bitch. I can't believe even Gordon Brown made a comment

Jade wants to be cremated and her ashes put into little purple pouches. Her thought was that everyone attends her funeral can go home with a goody bag.
doh, didn't take long for the phone text gags to appear did it.

R.I.P. Jade Goody. For one to loose their life so young is such a tragedy.
Whether you liked her or not, for what she achieved in her short life, is a credit to her, whatever way she achieved it. She had a tough upbringing with her mum & dad apparently no good when she was growing up. She was courageous and ambitious to the very end.

From thousands of miles away, I dont understand any of the fuss surrounding this girl´s death. Are the brits just looking for a reason to get some emotion off their chests during the financial crisis? From what I see she is a foul mouthed bigot who changed her mind when she realised she was dying.

really pathetic the way people are supposed to be upset about a stranger dying. none of us knew her and she didn't lighten up any of our lives in any way.
obviously sad for her family and friends but are we going to open up a thread for anyone that dies young?
society really is going to the toilet when stupid talentless people can just become celebrities - see Kerry Katonia for details.

The BBC says her funeral will be on tv ffs...... what is the matter with the UK these days, think of all the wonderful, wonderful people who have raised millions for charity, given their life's work to help those in need, helped the old, infirm and disabled who quietly go on to a better world unnoticed. The Uk is a sad and pathetic nation symbolised by the 'News of the World' mentality.
