JJ is turning out to be a horrid little stirrer, and  perhaps one of the biggest game players in there. He has latched on to the fact that Ben is an easy target and is playing it for all it's worth, just like he did with Racheal last week. Maybe if Ben manages to get through the eviction,  and he realizes that he may be popular on the outside, he will change his tactics, and pick on someone else!

God help us all if anyone has a go back at him though. Because he's 'sensitive'.
Exactly...... all that hoo hah with Josie cos she unintentionally said something that *hurt* him, and he goes around deliberately trying to  wind people up!!  I notice he doesn't do it to  Shabby though....... now those two in a row would make good viewing!

He's technically right about the national anthem though - God save the Queen is actually the commonwealth anthem.  England don't have a separate anthem except during the commenwealth games where they aren't allowed to use God save the Queen so they use Land of Hope and Glory - it is shameful that English people don't know that 

He was wrong about the rugby national anthem though so he doesn't know it all

it's also the national anthem of the whole UK.  I do think it's about time England had a separate National anthem and am one of those that disagrees with England using it during football/rugby matches.  They should use Land of Hope and Glory or a complete new one

Actually they now use Jerusalem.

The Commonwealth Games Council for England conducted a poll of members of the public which decided the anthem for the 2010 Commonwealth Games.  The three options were "God Save The Queen", "Jerusalem" and "Land of Hope and Glory". Jerusalem was the clear winner with 52% of the vote

But if it i anthem for the whole UK, the ergo it's the English national anthem
Only when it's the UK as in it involves all competitors from all the union.  If it's just England alone as in the World Cup - they shouldn't be allowed to use God Save the Queen as it's a purely English thing.  (although if there is a devolvement of the other parts of the UK then it would be Ok - besides  my word is law )

@ Spider - Jerusalem - I can understand how it stirs people but I wouldn't have thought it's appropriate as a national anthem.  I know it's about England but the title Jerusalem would be off putting to me if I was English   still the English are the ones that have to sing it
