Bogbrush she lied or at the very least embellished her situation. For example she did a post showing a tin of potatoes and said that she'd had to go to the foodbank to feed her and her daughter. A short time later her fridge showed a wine and a few posters asked why she was buying wine (can't remember brand but it wasn't cheap) when she was relying on food banks. She went all arsey and said she hadn't used a foodbank in several years...posters said 'what about that recent post?' and Cash replied in the stories in her usual aggressive manner that not everything you see is fact, it is art. Lots of examples like this, combined with her slagging loads of people off publicly but going mad when there was any talk of her has put a lot of people off her.

Oh thanks Yootube. With the food bank thing, that’s not unusual to rely on a food bank one week and have a bit more money a few weeks later, and a bottle of wine isn’t that extravagant is it (it wasn’t Moët or something was it?!). Food banks are there for anyone who can’t afford food right now, even if they might afford a bottle of wine in a few weeks.
That's outrageous!!!! If she's using a food bank I'd expect her to eat pot noodles and nothing else!!!!!!!!!! Wine is for those who have MONEY!!!!!
Exactly. It's the lying and dissembling that piss most people off. Nothing to do with being poor or a woman etc
It must have been a quiet week, she put that photo up to troll the mumsnet threads, waited until someone mentioned foodbanks and jumped on it - “blah blah HOW DARE I have lazy garlic and wine blah blah misogyny blah blah Tories blah blah’ much like @Mama_mimsy above post.
She is a goady fecker.

Wait, so you think I'm Cash? I'm agreeing with you! Im a taxpayer, if I'm paying for food banks I want to make sure the people using them are actually poor!!!? Wine is an EXTRAVAGANCE!
You’re embarrassing yourself Mama_Mimsy ?
The wine thing was actually only jumped on because she had previously mentioned (alot) about how she was an alcoholic and went to AA meetings to stay on the wagon.
When she took a photo of her fridge people were shocked because generally alcoholics cannot simply have ‘a glass’ or even a bottle lurking in their fridge. Part of recovery is abstaining completely and several followers (who are in recovery) were appalled she would claim to be one thing and contradict herself.
Naturally her next rant was about the food banks and how she obviously couldn’t have wine if she used a food bank. The food bank voucher photo was weeks before that so it was viable. Like someone else said it’s not unusual to have money one week and none the next. Although it did seem strange for someone with such a successful show and a book deal.

You guys are mean!
Like I said earlier the whole post was purposely goady, Cash wouldn’t have posted a photo of wine for any reason other then to get people to criticise it.
I work 4 days a week - relatively well paid. My husband has a well paid job. We have a 2002 reg car. We shop at Primark, Aldi and Lidl. I walk my shoes until they have holes in the soles and then they get re-soled. I buy my son's clothes a bit big so he can grow into them. We are creative with Sunday lunch leftovers through the rest of the week, we make stuff from scratch. We grow our own veg & I think HARD about every purchase I make, working out if I really truly need it or if I just want it. I scrimp and save everywhere I can. So... When I see lazy bleeping garlic and expensive wine in the fridge of a person supposedly using foodbanks... who then goes on to be extremely arsey and ferocious in their shouty defence of it almost being their human right to have these luxury items... it really does piss me off!! She was so sarcastic and nasty taking the piss out of people who dared to think she didn't deserve luxury items - and I was sat here thinking but I can't afford those items! How come you can!? She thinks if she shouts something loud enough it will make it ok. Her poverty posse will blindly back whatever she says. She seems to have more disposable income than I do.
Oh and cash... You can direct quote me for free in your 2019 spoken shizzle thing. I'm sure my opinion will rile you and offend you in equal measures.
Yeah she probably does, now - but can people who’ve used food banks not go on to have some money? You’re right to be annoyed that you work so hard and can’t afford the odd bottle of wine, but I’m not sure it’s cash you need to be angry with
I don’t get the lazy garlic thing - it’s cheaoer than buying fresh garlic, keeps forever & is a economical way to add some flavour. It’s not really a luxury item! No more than ketchup is. Now I’m wondering - is ketchup luxurious?

I can't imagine anyone wanting someone living in poverty to not find a way out of that and to go onto have some money. I have been thinking about this and I think part of the issue is perhaps with timing. I don't (I don't think anyone would, surely?) dispute that Cash has experienced some of the awful things she talks about: DV, poverty, going to food banks, being re-homed etc, but I think that with how instagram works, people expect (or I certainly did anyway) that what you post on instagram is what is happening to you right now. Clearly some of these things aren't happening to Cash right now because it appears she is doing well, writing a book, touring her play, doing lots of other pieces of writing. So some of the other stuff she talks about are happening right now, but past events and present events are mixed up as well in her posts and so people are questioning what they see because obviously some of the timings don't make sense. I'm happy for her that these things are happening because I think she is a good writer, and I really did find her very refreshing when I found her page on instagram. I just wish I had realised earlier that some of what she talks about isn't her reality right now, it is drawing on her experiences in the past as well. Does this make sense? I feel a bit stupid. I mean, not helped by being told we are idiots for not understanding how these things work, but still...
The wine thing (it was Moet btw) was just one out of many things. Looking back it was obviously done to be goady and provoke a reaction. It was an example of how she lied though; 'been to food bank and got this yesterday' and then 2 posts later saying that she hadn't been to the food bank since August 2 years ago etc. It was only when people started calling her out about it that she said it was art, people shouldn't believe everything they read etc. Does anyone remember the cat vomited on t he rug and then she storied that she had done it for art? Also when someone asked her about the rug she said it was gifted and she hated it but was going to use it until her friend in a refuge got a permanent home? I think she loved a lot of the brands recalled on Insta but that didn't fit her poverty porn narrative.
she's good at what she does and could use her voice to bring change and benefit for others but she seems to only be interested in herself.
I totally agree, I am really pleased that she is in a better place financially, I don't want to see anyone and especially children in poverty. I just don't like the way she went about it and then made out that everyone was thick for not realising that it was art.

It was Moet? But Moet is champagne not wine, so it was a bottle of champagne in her fridge? Maybe to celebrate her book deal or play or something - maybe it was given to her?
I remember the rug dramalama, it was “spotted” in her flat (when the cat was sick on it) and people were hopping that she still had it. I’ll never understand what the problem was there. Her friend wasn’t ready to take it yet. So what?
Sorry ignore that about the Moet, I can't remember what brand it was but people were saying it wasn't cheap. Re the rug, she was 'only using it until her friend got a house ' and was then gifting it to her? After all of the slagging off she did about Instas and that particular brand, I personally would be quite insulted if my friend gave me a gift that she had used for years, not to mention thrown fake cat vomit over in an attempt to make art about poverty. It wasn't the rug per se, it was the whole context.
I dunno, I don’t think it was fake cat sick - the cat was sick on the rug, people kicked off that she had the rug, she made a ‘joke’ about it being art. It’s kinda funny, I get it. Moet is £40 a bottle so check that as that’s a lot more than a normal bottle of wine. You can buy a lot of lazy garlic for £40
You know I’m pretty sure she never said she hadn’t been to the food bank since August 2 years ago - her food bank post (the one showing her food bank voucher) showed that she was definitely using the food bank at that time. Which was maybe a few months back now - her insta is gone so I can’t check but it was fairly recent

Why are we pandering the obvious trolls and goady fuckers ? who are so transparent they may as well end their posts with “gotcha”
How many pages long is this thread? All the info regarding shady and crappy behaviour can be found by a few minutes of scrolling.
The same thing used to happen on the mumsnet threads where sock puppet accounts and trolls would come on derail the thread with nonsense and obviously malicious untruthful things and get the thread locked or closed.
Not saying the thread will get closed but all these new posters acting faux outraged are just the kind of fodder cash uses in her stories to demonstrate she is being “bullied”
Don’t fall for it, engage it or feed it.

Agree - posters spending hours replying to clearly disengenous "whataboutary" shite. One thing I do remember from the mumsnet threads is - for posters who aren't the instagrammer sock puppet in....oooh...noooo, definitely not.....they certainly know a lot about the inner workings of their brain.
Stick them all on ignore
