Will it be an actual statue of Jade herself or just one to remember her by?

Whilst I feel sorry for the family and obviously her demise, I draw the line at this. If it's a windup, then LOL!!
However, if not....umm FFS, let's get a grip here people.

Heard it on the radio this morning.

Apparently the council have had hundreds of request for a statue of her from the public.

Oh dear.

I heard its not a statue but a plaque on the flats she grew up in, somewhere around SE London.
Lets hope they dont make it out of ANY kind of metal, it will get nicked before they finish putting the screws in.

What a complete joke!

Has everyone forgotten that she was a rude, obnoxious, self-centred, highly stupid and racist fat cow? I'm sorry but cancer or dying doesn't change that. I refused to be hypocritical about all this. I have full sympathy for her and her family and I do believe she handled her illness well. She certainly, in my eyes, went some way to undoing the damage she did to her own reputation in previous years but I refuse to go all gooey and pretend that she's suddenly brilliant because she got cancer and died. Lots of people - sadly - have that happen to friends and loved ones.

The fact that she's seen as some sort of British hero sort of sickens me to be honest. She didn't fully undo the damage she did during BB and in her post BB years and 90%+ of the population that suddenly love her are being hypocritical fvcks.

Take that Nicky Graham tart....I bet if I did a poll right now 90%+ of SN would agree she's a stupid little slag. However, if she gets aids and dies then suddenly the world would fall in love with her. What's that all about?

99% of SN males would still nail her though, even with aids

Who's Nicky Graham? Never heard of her! As for a Goody statue, FFS I see this sh!thouse a country has it's priorities right! Still the OK and Heat magazine readers (who live up their own *****) will be creaming their pants at the thought of a statue dedicated to a z list idiot!
