A CIC is a company not a charity. They are the Wild West.

So he’d fit in nicely there then
My mistake...He must be desperate for any kind of "recognition".
It’s a common mistake though.
CIC’s are catnip to grifters. People think they are basically a charity.
A Community Interest Company is a type of company which puts its profits back into the company. They exist to do something for a community. That’s why you hear of food banks, hostels, community centres and the like being a CIC. There are many good ones.
However they are a grifters paradise. You will find many CIC’s where the director is drawing a large salary - Jodie Marsh pays herself £75k per year from her animal
oh and it’s in her house where she lives. She recently told people they would go to hell when they die if they don’t donate.
charitable cause
not for profit
licence to beg for donations, chase clout and take a large fee for yourself

I'd all but forgotten about her. I love this place, I spend hours talking about/reading about someone and then the thread changes and I forget they ever existed
Incel heaven
I’m finding his online presence pretty horrific atm. He posted the other day about eating at the same time every day and that being a marker of his autism. A) that’s a really reductive view of autism and shows he really has no bleeping idea about the condition and B) millions of people have to eat at the same time every day because their lives dictate it.
I read one article about the contestant who wants to be edited out. I might have read it incorrectly but it seemed like the producers were saying to her that she was the exception and that she should stay in because it was such an amazing experience. To do what? Be in a programme that encourages men like Gregg? I really hope they change their minds and edit Gregg out.

I reckon they’ll end up just scrapping everything that’s been filmed and starting again tbh.
Well said. I think he's been reading up about "autism" and posting accordingly. It's a diagnosis he wants to use to his advantage in getting sympathy and a free pass to act as he pleases. He thinks he's Untouchable.
TV companies should stand up to these vile individuals who are cherished as so-called Talent. Horrible predators.
Years ago I challenged Dr Christian Jessen re using Eating Disorders for entertainment purposes on a live C4 afternoon discussion show. If looks could kill.. Glad he got his comeuppance eventually.
He's just so vile in his vests especially the white one. Does he think he's sexy? Is his wife attracted to him? Who actually groped him? He's got no shame at all
From this article, Sarah Shafi (contestant), rightfully, imo, did not want the programme aired at all but the 'solution' offered to her was that she would be edited out.
What about the other contestants though? People give up weeks of their lives to participate, some even quit their jobs. She doesn’t speak for them. They offered to edit her out, but that’s not good enough for her. She wants the whole thing scrapped and sod everyone else. She sounds like an hole,
I think she should have requested to be edited out in private but she wanted the attention in the media.
Viewing figures will be massive. The BBC will be delighted.
Then they will have to focus on the latest Strictly drugs scandal..Just in time for the launch of the latest series so great..More publicity!

I bet she'll have massive fomo when it is shown and she isn't in it. I presume she didn't get very far and certainly didn't win if editing her out is possible.
His stories today . Showing off his quads and then some autism passport. Someone needs to take his phone off him and I don’t say that lightly, I’ve been on the Jack Monroe threads for years.
. Showing off his quads and then some autism passport. Someone needs to take his phone off him and I don’t say that lightly, I’ve been on the Jack Monroe threads for years.My son is autistic and I’ve never heard of an autism passport. I’m now going to have to have a look.
damn you
damn you
He’s so annoying. Watching that story made my skin crawl, but that passport is useful to know about.
Shame he’s such an eejit

I’m fine with the autism passport btw, please don’t think that I’m not ( I’ve worked with SEND kids so anything that helps is brilliant in my eyes). I’m not fine with him using it as an excuse for his behaviour and the way he framed certain things he did last week as being typical of autism was reductive and not helpful for the community.
Sorry, I didnt mean to sound critical of you.
I hadn’t heard of the passport and looking at it, it can be helpful especially for those with higher needs. He however, is a fool, and probably doesn’t need the passport as he can explain his needs. He’s an mole and I agree with you that was he’s using his newly diagnosed autism as an excuse and it’s hurting the community.
I do think a lot of people know as he’s getting a lot of criticism (and not just on tattle).
