Message: <blockquote data-quote="Long Lashes" data-source="post: 378853" data-attributes="member: 41">What a shock this has been, a very nasty shock.  I would never have imagined Trish holding such abhorrent views and not only racist ones either.  She had me completely fooled, I thought she was intelligent, empathic and someone who wasn't afraid to stand up for social injustices. Her tweets  are far more offensive then anything I could’ve imagined, they are absolutely vile.  Apparently Trish  has issued an apology and said those tweets were posted by her eleven years ago and claims she is more educated these days and has changed.    I like to  believe people should be given a second chance for past mistakes and want to give her the benefit of the doubt, but her views in those tweets are so horrendously extreme.   I've also read that (allegedly) some of her vile tweets are from this last summer, how true this is I don't know?Has she apologised because she is truly sorry and ashamed or because she has been found out?  Not knowing is the thing.  All trust in Trish and what she stood for in the house is in serious doubt, was she fake in her friendship with Yinrun, Jordan and Henry? I like to think not and I guess we will never know.I'm surprised that ITV didn't check the contestant’s social media accounts before accepting them on Big Brother and what an idiot I now feel after wanting her to be in the final.</blockquote>
