Although Parky was being rather frank and a tad insensitive i do admire his honesty.

Shedding tears for people i don't know is not my thing though i do feel empathy for such folk. Jade goody was a bit of a moron and not a role model.

Max Clifford is a money machine.

I do feel desperately sorry for the children though.

I must admit I was quite surprised at Parky coming out with that as he is normally very diplomatic and never tries to be controversial.

He is probably right though but for the sake of the boys left behind I would keep these sorts of feelings to myself.

Well said, even though she was annoying, Its terrible what happened to her and its horrible for the family.

For tabloid papers to even dare relate the funeral to that of Dianas takes the p_iss

Note the responses to the article, mainly from Sun readers.

Its terrible what happened to her and its horrible for the family.

Same for the families she harassed as a kid when she knew nothing an lived on drugs, brought up on a council estate in ongar.
her mother was a mouthy old cow as well.

better off six foot under, as thats where someone would of put her oneday.

Many people every day are dying from cancer and don't get a mention or thought at all. Just because she was the dunce Essex girl in big brother she made loads of money (cant fault her) and then the shilpa shetty incident brought her back into the tabloids again.

she along with Clifford somehow managed to captivate a large percentage of the public (cant think why) with events surrounding her cancer. We were made to feel sorry for her for what reasons? yeh she had kids but so do a hell of alot of other people.

Personally i agree with parky, but i think she did well exploiting her terminal illness to make money for her kids. you use what ever means you can.

However, all this talk about books and tv programs about her.....please.... id much rather watch dung beetles copulating.
Her life story must be about as interesting as watching the bin lorry drive down the road emptying the bins

Barnsley lads are known for speaking their minds.

"Her death is as sad as the death of any young person but it's not the passing of a martyr or a saint or, God help us, Princess Di," Sir Michael wrote.

"When we clear the media smokescreen from around her death, what we're left with is a woman who came to represent all that's paltry and wretched about Britain today.

"She was brought up on a sink estate, as a child came to know both drugs and crime, was barely educated, ignorant and puerile.

"Then she was projected to celebrity by Big Brother and, from that point on, became a media chattel to be manipulated and exploited till the day she died," he said.

He said Goody was "the perfect victim of our times...brought up in a cesspit of poverty and died to an orchestrated chorus of exploitation".

I loved the funeral report that said:

Hundreds of well-wishers lined the streets to pay their respects

Well-wishers? Not much to wish her well about.

I beg to differ, did you attend that funeral? Red Arrows, thousands lining the streets, a national holiday on 25th of December?

Totally 100% behind you there. She earned ( alledgedly ) 1 Million pounds for selling her story to the media, to help her kids.Good on her.
I am backing Parky all the way on this one. Many people, including my Dad who died in December, fought during the war and didn't get the recognition that this ' so called TV star ' did. I feel for her family and friends, that goes without saying, but to have what she had as a funeral was in my opinion, a mokery.
She was a nothing, that came from nothing - look out for people that gave something to this country.
