She ought to be careful banging on about profit margins when we look at her charitable deeds: buy my book at full retail price and I'll donate it to a foodbank!
She ought to be careful banging on about profit margins when we look at her charitable deeds: buy my book at full retail price and I'll donate it to a foodbank!You'd think that would be the point of priority for her (except that her only priority *is* her).
It's a strange thing, how against financial success (other people's, obv) she is. In this case, though, I think that because the firms are being paid by the government (so, by us), it's a legitimate, but secondary point, in respect of margins made.
To use the same vernacular, I am LIVING for this! So, so delighted that the word is out.To use Twitter vernacular that I am far too old to get away with, a la Mackie... we love to see it!
That same chef was crowd funding a big (ie few £k) mixer for his kitchen at the start of lockdown, so that he could produce more sourdough for the community. Unfollowed him at that point because I couldn't help but think that money could be better spent elsewhere and the locals could forego their artisan loaves.Another person that doesn't understand child food poverty. He might be able to provide food in his kitchen in Peterborough, but to send that food across the country and feed all those kids would be logistically impossible from one kitchen. Take into account all the children's allergies, dietary requirements, religious food exclusions, children's likes and dislikes, the ability to reheat the food, ensuring reheating is done safely, hygiene standards in delivery,etc etc etc.
Another bandwagon jumper who thinks it is all so easy. We don't need another person telling us that they should be giving out food like lady bountiful to sate their own need to be seen as a saviour. We don't need a chef linking up with Jack to rinse the government, or a charity, out of money, whilst deriding companies for doing just that.
JUST GIVE PEOPLE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY THEIR OWN FOOD, FOR GOODNESS SAKE.
I’m pretty sure I heard it as I live in the same areaOh dear.
This Morning (who couldn't fit Jack in today apparently) are talking about the food boxes.
Phil Vickery is on. He's taking the phone in on 'Lockdown cookery' which is where people on a low income can ask him how to cook on a minimum budget.
Somewhere in Southend a shitty bungalow has had a small explosion just happen...
Sorry if this has been answered both are counted as donations. Patreon you have to pay a fee to have their service. It's like 4p in every poundI call bullshit on the rent bouncing
So she apparently 'pays herself' £23000 a year (implying she actually has more money but this is the allowance she gives herself)
After tax that's about £1600 a month
Plus the minimum she gets from Patreon is £1200 a month*
So the bare minimum that she earns in a month is £2800~
And that's not including the higher tiers on Patreon or the money sent directly to her tip jar*
*Would she be taxed for Patreon and tip jar? I assume Patreon is business-like transaction so she should be taxed but the tip jar is just directly sending her money so I guess wouldn't?
Tons of people live comfortably on £3k a month. If she cant, then she's spending beyond her means.
She ate a Big Mac out of a bin??.This tops all.her lies for me
Lol, even funnier that she claimed that she was going to be on This Morning today. Phil Vickery just stole your life's work hunOh dear.

Bet he did a better jobLol, even funnier that she claimed that she was going to be on This Morning today. Phil Vickery just stole your life's work hun
I think the fact shes gay has came up the least. She has never seemed to face any hardships on account of being gay. Somewhere successful public figure doesnt really fit the narrative. She might get the odd dumb comment on twitter. But I doubt shes ever felt inequalityThanks for the kind words.
I loved being gay in the 80's, might seem strange what with the homophobia, the anti gay policing and AIDs but there was a feeling of belonging to a community. A community that looked after itself. If you haven't seen Pose on BBC (amazing) do so, Manchester in the 80s had a similar vibe. There was one guy, Michelle worked on the club doors, looked a lot like Dianna Ross, he was a mother to all the kids thrown out on the streets. We looked after our own.
I think that is what Jack is missing, she would have loved to be part of the Gay community of the 80's. She doesn't seem to belong anywhere now, she hasn't got a Tribe. Back then, it didn't matter if you were a high flying lawyer, a TV star or an on your arse benefit claimant, we were all in it together, fighting for acceptance and equality.
She wants the lifestyle that she had with Allegra, and be part of that community, whilst also wanting to be a working class hero and part of that community. All the time she is a stay at home middle class mum with a cause. No different to those women of the 50's whose husbands went out to work, so they did charity work to fill thier time.
She would have revelled in the Gay activism back then, she missed out and she knows it.
