Does she even know what she sounds like? Itā€™s absolutely bleeping terrible when a kid gets caught with a knife or weapon in a school. It is very frightening for teachers and very low paid support staff, even if it turns out the kid has a stupid butter knife, Swiss army effort, pellet gun etc etc. (all have happened at schools Iā€™ve worked at šŸ”ŗ)

Why is she acting like the scalpel stealing is a hilarious jape dare? 911 highjackers used box cutters which are very like scalpels.

keep thinking about the fact that she used 'ceremoniously' when she meant to say 'unceremoniously', and that she considers herself a writer and a wordsmith and just find it hilarious. - when she does make such a mistake whilst going off on these evening fantasy trips though, (expelled, teaching and nazi dinner all in one night) you do have to wonder if she's hit the bottle or has gotten carried away with the happy pills again..

Christ on a bike, get some sleep woman. Up till all hours tweeting absolute nonsense.

What prompted this hilarious anecdote about school? Did she just start tweeting randomly about it? Iā€™ve tried to look this morning but itā€™s obv all deleted.

I would like to allege that something is wrong in the crappy bungalow. She is acting weird (er than normal)

I think the actual Kickstarter she did for her book might actually have been the issue here. Standing as an MP, she would have got PLENTY of questions about why she was ripping people off. I think the ā€œdeath threatsā€ were massively exaggerated, if they existed at all.
good Iā€™m glad she got some questions re Kickstarter, unfortunately not enough šŸ˜’

She was saying that if her school was able to ā€œceremoniouslyā€ expel her, then OBVIOUSLY it shouldnā€™t be too hard to remove Trump before the 20th. Because these are such similar scenarios. Wiser frauen than I have pointed out that itā€™s not exactly admin/process free to expel someone from school either!

ETA (because I canā€™t help myself): he didnā€™t incite sedition, Jack. Sedition is the act of incitement.

More night times tales from Jack šŸ˜‚ Her ability to use herself as the ultimate benchmark of any known situation is astonishing.

Yā€™all are going to have to get rid of Trump because I stole a scalpel from the science lab.

ā€œTrump has had to stop tweeting, therefore I should stop tweeting. Wait, no.ā€

I completely agree, it results in bag searches, lessons being halted and safeguarding measures being put in place.

An expulsion (exclusion actually) however is bollocks.That only occurs after months of paperwork and then there are appeals from the parents. She is talking SHITE.

As for the PRU, that is not what it is there for Jack dear. Helping the students who are getting D/3 grades ? That is what intervention in school is for.

She would not last a minute in one of those places. Again, it takes months of evidence gathering from various stakeholders before a student goes there, generally on account of their behaviour. It takes a very, very special and talented person to work in a PRU. One who knows how to get the best out of students who struggle to sit in a chair for more than 2 minutes, who struggle to follow instructions and who struggle to see why education is important for them.

The PRUs are a vital part of our education system but arenā€™t where the D/C ( actually 3/4 now Jack, you need to change you understanding of the grading system if you are to help SB through his secondary years) borderline students go. They are where those who are at risk of going into SUs go.

Sorry for early rant.

Sure, sure. I imagine it was absolutely the policy of schools in Southend to leave up to the child who had been expelled the job of telling a parent that their child had been expelled. There are absolutely no holes in this story. None at all.
Even back in the 70s, when the husband actually was expelled they called his dad down to the school.

A very enlightening comment, and totally bang on. She is just the absolute worst mix of arrogance and bullshit..

Re the expulsion lie - just when you think she might use up all of her material she goes and produces more comedy gold, and an early nomination contender for The Sloppies 2021

Her ego is so intense. ā€œIf I ME JACK MONROE was able to be actually excluded by a jury of my peers and guardians, age 14, for a much exaggerated misdemeanour - despite my clear gifts/troubles/exceptionalism then WTF getting rid of a president and narc tycoon from the highest office in the land should be a DODDLE. Sit up, USA, and smell the coffee!ā€

What the actual duck is wrong with her? Sheā€™s clearly eluding to some sort of rough upbringing doing road / cunch with that knife story? With a scalpel lol.

It seriously pisses me off, knife crime is such a huge youth issue and there will be thousands of young boys (and girls) with actual PTSD & passing trauma between generations as a result of how bad the gov has allowed it to get. And add in the highly racialised portrayal of it in media too. And add in the expulsion to prison pipeline that disproportionately affects young black boys. But for her itā€™s a quirky little tale about what a little cheeky maverick she is? Is there a single lived experience this beast wonā€™t co opt? Horrific

This is actually quite triggering as I used to live in a deprived area where this was a real issue (my choice, to save for our forever home) so saw a lot of horrible stuff I wonā€™t detail. I have no bleeping idea as a mere bystander so she certainly doesnā€™t. Daddy probably drove them through Dagenham once to collect rent arrears from his peasants?

ETA - I didnā€™t live in Dag if sheā€™s adding that to my triangulation file but I think sheā€™s mentioned it when remembering her super WC childhood, think uncle has a wimpy there?

A now deleted tweet. Ffs does she have to make every single political situation or current events about her?!
She would be a treat to invite to a dinner party. What a way to lighten the mood and have a great evening, talk about Auschwitz and the reemergenceof the far right.

She said these guests were news editors, reporters and journalists. Perhaps they wanted a light hearted evening as a relief from their intense and pressured job, not be lectured to by an amateur politacal pundit.

Are there any depths to which this inveterate illywhacker wonā€™t sink? Sheā€™s deranged. I actually prefer Trump: at least he doesnā€™t delete the lies and the hate he tweets, just brazens it out. She pretends that sheā€™s fragile and noble and damaged but sheā€™s just a bleeping incurable liar.

Like the obnoxious drunk who is talking absolute shite but gets all salty, hard done by and eventually aggressive when people try to change the subject to something less boring.
