Thomas Skinner, the controversial contestant on Strictly Come Dancing, has retweeted former Big Brother star Narinder Kaur once more on social media.
Thomas Skinner has gone on a social media rant once again as he took time out from Strictly Come Dancing training. The Apprentice star, 34, caused controversy when he signed up to the hit BBC dance competition following his political views and outspoken opinions.
He went on to stir up more drama at the press launch for the show when he snatched a journalist’s phone and stormed off. Since then, Thomas has been paired with beloved dancer Amy Dowden, which also caused outrage with some fans.
Thomas has been training with Amy, but he has remained convinced that he deserves a spot on the dancefloor. He posted a weight loss update from rehearsals on X on Wednesday, revealing that he had already lost one stone.

Yet just a couple hours later, he returned to the platform with a message that appeared to hit out at Big Brother star Narinder Kaur. She had said Thomas was “too controversial” for Strictly and in his latest post, he shared a clip from when they both appeared on Good Morning Britain.
In the segment on the ITV morning show, they debated if people are ashamed to be English. Alongside the clip, Thomas wrote: “I love this beautiful country and all you lovely people with all my heart.”
He continued, “I’m fed up with all these lunatics moaning about being proud of where you’re from and trying to cause a massive division between people,” in what appeared to be a crude swipe at Narinder. Not what we are trying to accomplish.
We should always fly our flag with pride and be proud, united, and proud. God’s blessings to each of you. This little golden oldie video is going to bed and I’m going to show it to everyone. Morning dancing. Let’s get started. Bosh. “
Back in August, Narinder had addressed Thomas’ signing as she said: “Apparently I was deemed too controversial for @bbcstrictly because they only hire quiet brown and black women that fit in a box.
“But you can be a white man and be outspoken, and you’ll be hired right away!” Hello Thomas Skinner đ đ đ đ đ đ đ đ đ đ ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Your preconceived attitudes and prejudice against British brown women are shameful.
Narinder continued, “They wouldn’t take me on, we approached them and they said I was too controversial,” adding that she was “raging” with the broadcaster. Because that’s the kind of brown and black woman their audience prefers, they put brown and black women on who are quiet.
However, God forbid you have some opinions, and they won’t ever agree with you. But if you’re a white man like Thomas Skinner, a proud patriot like Thomas Skinner of the online right, and a criminal paster, they’ll let you go!
Narinder, I respect that you stand up for what you believe in, not everyone has the guts to do that. Thomas responded to that at the time with a statement. Yes, I have a past, but I’m not here to divide people.
I’m just attempting to persuade people that they have more options than they think. When you accept happiness and don’t always feel resentment toward others, life can be so much better.
I apologize if I’ve ever offended you, but that’s never what I intended. I only want a happy, peaceful life for you and peace for you. Bosh. “
