This is in no offense to Jamie Laing, but the ever-increasing pattern of reality stars getting creative jobs which professionals have trained for years to be good at is quite grim. Are talent and dedication wholly irrelevant now?

Jacques is making his way through the gaslighting playbook. First it was the ‘We weren’t even serious’, then the classic ‘I’m so damaged, she deserves better’, and now he’s trying out the ‘I’m all for you now, please accept my shitty behaviour as character building’. #LoveIsland

I’ve been spiked 3 times, waking up in hospital once. I have physical scars from the other times. Spiking is not a quip, it’s not a harmless joke and truly I am fed up of women having to SCREAM about how it’s actually not okay to harm us.

There is nothing funny about spiking women’s drinks. This is not ‘mere banter’. Violence against women & girls is a social issue and language is important, especially from those in charge of making legislation to protect women from these atrocious crimes.

Yes yes YES. Ghosting and fucking people around absolutely sucks and there’s far too much of it happening, but it’s not something to be cancelled for and it is not abuse. This trend is weird, and blurs the line between what’s actually abusive and what’s just shitty behaviour.
