Although it seems she hasn't yet featured in The Breakdown, she has at least got a bio on there ...

Jack Monroe writing about class? Do me a favour. The entirety of her knowledge encompasses: what class she was brought up and now tries to hide, what class she tries to perpetuate for work opportunities, and what class she brown noses out of vanity and please-like-me fawning.

Yeah my husband has ptsd from living through every adverse childhood experience you can think of, then being shot at and bombed in his army career.

Pretty sure he would have given his right arm to have a middle class up bringing with extra curricula activities, a daddy who was a pillar of the community rather than an alcoholic gambler.

They cosplay being poor and traumatised but the reality of living that existence is hellish.

It's another of those things she's latched onto, with no understanding of the reality. She really knows how to push so many people's buttons

Does everything have to have a fucking back story too? I just had pasta n sauce because my nan used to make it for me while my mum went out to walk the streets begging for change and now when I eat it and it reminds me.... Oh no whhhhhhhoops. My bad. I just eat it because it's quick. And carby. No emotionally charged attachments to my snacks.

Holy shit... just shut the fuck up?

All the classics in here:
Greedy goblin snarfing
Fish... always fucking fish
Waaaaa I was once poooooor
Haven't I had SUCH a fascinating life?
But I also had to work my fingers to the bone cos I'm so working class innit
What a wordsmith! The duality of my hot decimated fury
ACTIVIST JACK - how dare you call her 'former'
Such a quirky unique speshul little pixie

Why does she insist on portraying a normal amount of thinking as 'exhausting' and quirky
Because in HER prejudiced worldview, working class people don’t have such lofty thoughts, so therefore for her cosplay, she affects this

But isn’t this a bit feckin’ duplicitous to be complaining about the reduction of low-cost basics range meanwhile she’s just publicly endorsed an OVERPRICED BRAND in a campaign

She's the perpetual victim. Most people who live through the trauma of signing on for a few months are proud of being survivors. She always has to be so bloody hard done by. I'm a pessimist with depression and I'm more bloody cheerful than she is (I can cook better too!)
