It would be glorious. He'd "idiot sandwich" her and then taunt her with his OBE.I would love it, particularly because you know Ramsay would not give a duck about what JM thinks.
I was about to say the same. I took my lovely mil to waitrose as our tescos is huge and she couldn't manage the walk anymore. She always bought branded stuff and was amazed that waitrose was actually a little bit cheaperI doubt the even the fox would eat those! Probably the only person to eat those without requiring extensive dental treatment, is jaws from bond films
Well she’s wrong again, as in branded goods Waitrose price match, and they are cheaper than Sainsbury’s

Yeah, can confirm that people here started calling it 'the 'Rona' pretty much from day dot. I stopped hearing it so much when things started getting serious, though. It was the kind of jokey thing you'd say if you sneezed in public: "Don't worry! It's not the 'Rona!" etc, but I think the days of being so flippant are long gone. I can't imagine people using it for an actual case now.Not sure, but spoke to a mate in Australia very early on and he was calling it ‘the Rona’ in his big, bogan drawl - which made me laugh. It seems a very Ozzie thing to say..

I wonder why Jack hasn't put any of her lovely Christmas roast pics on instagram?
Quoting myself, but seriously...how could her reaction not have been*: "Wow, that seems like a great initiative you have going on there! Loving the free meals you provide every day/community garden you run/food waste reductions projects etc" Instead it's al about how HARD she works and the money coming to her. Blurgh.Like that Cornish project asking if they could use her recipes and who she told they could link to it because of her HARD work. Still can't believe she didn't try to lift them up and shine a bit more light on them (I do not know them at all, I live on the opposite side of the country, so I hav no affiliation).
Much like Cliffy in all of his videos, then.I am clenching my arse cheeks so tightly in cringe they’re in spasm.
That speech about confidence at the end, emotionally thanking the audience of faceless youtubers omgI am clenching my arse cheeks so tightly in cringe they’re in spasm.
It’s even worse when you realise that on the same day she said “I just can’t help myself but try to be helpful!”Quoting myself, but seriously...how could her reaction not have been*: "Wow, that seems like a great initiative you have going on there!

*I know she's a narc, that's why
thread title #121: me again, with the 'rona
Emperor’s new clothes innit. I suspect deep down all the blue-tickers see what she is but are afraid to call it out because everyone else blows smoke up her arse.She destroyed New England with Billy Bragg awhile
Back at a local festival.... what he was thinkin having her up with him Ill
Never know
Agree, completely.Somebody asked why JM doesn't highlight more local initiatives and I think it's a great point. She has so many followers (and so many of them eager to relieve some middle class guilt) and for many small projects her focus could mean a welcome temporary boost in donations. She could have done an adventscalendar, putting a UK food poverty community project (or international) in the spotlight each day to say: "Hey look what wonderful things these people are doing, chuck them a few quid if you can afford it". It would be a bigger impact than her Christmas menu. (Jack, if you're reading this, it's not too late, you could do a 12-days-of-Christmas kind of thing, from Christmas 25 Dec to Three Kings on 6 Jan)

Still can't believe she didn't try to lift them up and shine a bit more light on them (I do not know them at all, I live on the opposite side of the country, so I hav no affiliation).
For someone claiming she has such burning desires to HELP, she doesn't share her platform at all (she'll share so others can be her props)
(Note of contemplation....I do think celebrities, from A to Z-list, can be picky in what or who they lend their weight to and they can say no to requests or course. Generally I would say they don't owe people they don't know their energy. But if you're claiming to be an activist with your whole image being about helping those that are dealing with food poverty and you're not putting out ladders to make sure others can be elevated, you're doing it wrong)
She’s still only been ‘sick’ max six days as the teacher revelation was last Monday.Agree, completely.
And I am still waiting for her list of local artists to support she announced a few months ago... There was enough time for that BEFORE she fell ...sick.
Oh my GOD how have I missed this?! I don’t think I’ll ever stop cringing!! I’ve gone all hot!!Cliff Richard just chose Jack Monroe songs on Desert Island Discs? Was 'Landslide' (cover, a cappella) amongst them?
