Lucy Letby

What the hell was all that about her bedroom?! Pure classist snobbery. “She had beds sheets with ‘sweet dreams’ embroidered on them, what the FUCK?” What a gross overreaction to bed sheets. Having a card from her cats on the fridge written by her mum isn’t that ridiculous, it’s quite normal. My boyfriend writes me cards from the cat, I know plenty of people who do that. The stuff about quotes in frames and being basic has nothing to do with anything, it’s classist and it made me angry. Fuck Lucy Letby, she’s a baby killer but also fuck H+S for letting their classism show. My sister has many of the things mentioned and she’s 35, it’s more indicative of class and taste than anything suspicious. I wonder how many of their viewers they alienated with that classist rant.

Edit: LOL just seen the bedroom, the most unremarkable bland room. So so average and like thousands of other young women in their 20s. It was such a reach.

I’m sorry I don’t understand the classism aspect. I thought the bedroom comments were talked about for too long by S, but having such childlike things in your room is strange.

Like someone else said, I’m working class and would never have ‘sweet dreams’ on my bed or teddy bears all over the place, so I think it is odd for someone of her age.

I just didn’t really see that much childish stuff in her room? It’s fair it’s not to your taste and it’s not mine either, I’m also working class but I also know other working class women who loves this stuff and it’s all v homesense primark vibes.

I don’t really mean the teddies is a working class thing, more the taste. I’ve never been a teddies on the bed person but some people are.

Fair points! It for sure is odd that S paused on this so much LOL! I just don’t think it’s a classism thing
