I Googled “Coronavirus Winter Grant apply” and the first two council websites I clicked on had application forms and explained eligibility and what the funds were for.

I just typed into Google 'How to apply for a Coronavirus Winter Grant' and numerous things came up with how to apply and what it is for. Why in the name of all that is holy do people ask Jack? Who doesn't know. I just don't get it.
And yes there is a champagne bar in the House of Commons. Literally who bleeping cares. Most people are old and wise enough to realise life is just not bloody fair and other people have nice things.
@NP Snap!
Not properly caught up yet but #Arkward that you have to be reminded about your own hashtag. Then amusing that you still have to explain what it means. 
Please stop SHOUTING! I've got an ouchie head but, more importantly, it doesn't get anything done.
That cheeky little non existent toaster, popping out from behind Jack's left arm in the video nasty.

Granted Sarfend Caaannncil was tough to find on google but I think I have the right one
Not great info on free school meals for half term, maybe the lazy mandarins of Sarfend were busy laughing and rolling in all the money they got told they were getting at 1pm this afternoon, didn’t bother to allocate it to a budget and work out a local strategy for holiday FSM vouchers coming back and update their website according! Probably knocked off by 3pm
Anyway, this was 3 clicks work

If she goes quiet, we'll know they used the cheap glue, Costanza-style.jenny2603 said:
I’m boring myself now...if you google it there is very clear government guidance on the way the 170mil is to be spent and how the spend must be reported to DWP. The costs of running will be published as well.
However - the 170mil was announced in November, what the government said today was a reminder of what they did last year. Not an extra wedge.
The really simple response would have been - you gave that money last year with no intention or klaxon that it had to cover FSM in February half term. It’s already allocated, we need extra.
But no, forensic ol’ Hi-Jack is off on one about how much a Tory MP earns and miscalculating the pounds shilling and pence their wage could feed kids.

Would it be out of order for me to start getting up earlier just to mess with you?
It might make me go to bed earlier
She thinks this makes her look like she’s working hard but most people see it for the mania it is and are backing off.
She’s similar to Hatie Kopkins in that she will just keep going until she has nothing left
Good morning! Vaccination day for me! At a theme park!
Omg @HotesTilaire go to bed! Jack was posting 30 mins before I got up this morning, she is due a massive crash. Poor SB will have school, I hope his dad has rescued him.

Nah, the right things. Not voting and actively voting against the systemic changes that would start to solve a lot of her issues. I’ve been a teacher since 1998, and was a new mum in 2006 and 2008- things just weren’t as bad under a socialist government. Sure Start, proper funding for schools, EMA, (and social care- I’m married to a social worker) European protections in human rights. Don’t get me wrong, Labour fucked up a lot of things (public sector pensions, tuition fees, war in Iraq...) but if you don’t vote in the least bad option you get.......this.
Firstly, checks of my previous post (too late to 
) revealed that my phone had changed “to” to “too”. Levels of mortification have therefore been high in the tunnel household.
Secondly, WTAF is she still doing up bashing away on twitter, criticising large salaries? She sounds like a child who doesn’t understand why the boss earns more than mummy or daddy.
My sympathy for her waned a while back after some very astute posts, but there is going to be an awful period after this and it will not be pleasant to see. Maybe those who are close think this is what she truly wants to be doing and it is benefitting society in some way and that is why they are letting it go on. But for her sake, it needs to stop. She is now making no sense and her M.O. has become lost in a sea of false promises and directionless campaigns.
Talking of coffee, off to make mine in a cup that says COFFEE on the side in big, black letters.
side note: I’m not, the cup came from Tesco.

I can't breathe. You crazy, sick, wonderful genius youY’know Lenny, in the future when my grandchildren say ‘what did you do in lockdown Grandad Alan?’ I’ll be able to say ‘behold my body of work’. Taylor Swift released two albums, but did she produce this? I think the duck not.
Totally behind, but even my local paper puts articles behind paywall sometimes. They're mostly concerned with crocodiles, things that look like genitals, and people who've shoved things up their arse, so it's not even a particularly elitist sort of activity for newspapers to do.
Happy days on the vaccination!!!!!Good morning! Vaccination day for me! At a theme park! Nah, the right things.

Sure Start.......I think that going has had consequences that we will feel for many years to come.
Jack is entitled to believe in whatever politics she wants, and vote however she wants. It’s her lying and trying to pretend to every side (except the far right) that she is a fully paid up member (literally) which is what is causing her problems. She shouldn’t have even tried with the Corbyn, Labour and anti-Semitism stuff. She’d be less out of her depth at the bottom of Loch Ness. If she’d kept her lie-hole shut she wouldn’t be in this trouble.Good morning! Vaccination day for me! At a theme park!

My friends mum used to eat apple sandwiches which seemed really weird but I grew up with banana sandwiches so not much different.
I'll wait till lockdown is over and the dentist and gym are open before going for the mars bar and apple!
I'm afraid the conventional wisdom here is unture. I know this because I spent so many bastard hours before Christmas researching this for my psychology class and then writing it up.
The eye movements are pretty much the same in lying and non lying people.

I have only just watched that wierd little Feed Children video or whatever it was.
Honestly. Her delivery is appalling. Eyes darting nervously and that monotone. Then it seems all of a sudden she reads on her autocue "{{{Note to self - Jack - THIS BIT IS WHERE YOU SHOULD SOUND ANGRY}}} and she for no obvious reason suddenly gets shouty.
I can't imagine this was her only attempt and this was the best?

Unfortunately a lot of Jack’s early blogs have not been archived, but it’s quite clear that all throughout The Poverty, Jack was politically very active, meeting high up politicians and participating in political events. She never said otherwise, but it’s at odds with the picture she paints of a lonely, starving single mum, stuck in a cold flat trying to survive.
By February 2013 Jack was already self-identified socialist, and a leftist band she was interviewing was talking a lot about the working class. He did say the middle class aren’t the enemy but it’s quite clear you’re not considered a proper comrade if you are. I think the advent of her socialism would have marked the beginning of her identifying as working class.

In this entry, featuring the interview with the band, Jack offers us more clues as to why she has no friends:
“I keep a few Tories in my friend circle just to take my rage out on every now and again. It beats shouting at the telly, and of course you have to hone your arguments”.

Sameeee I was thinking this and didnt want to say. Her and Bob geldof eh
Meanwhile her son is alone while his mum howls into the abyss
Also babe put some eye cream on
Hi
I would guess either Louisa left for good, or shes struggling to keep her real personality in check these days. Narc and ego have tool over
FYI Jack you might wanna take his name outta your mouth cos this ain’t it ...I *think* it is to do with her recent love and support of Corbyn, so this has annoyed some of the Jewish community due to the allegations of Corbyn's anti semitism.
Jack being excluded from that letter and JO taking her place is just bleeping brilliant.
She seriously can't keep claiming she is working with MR can she? When he literally never acknowledges her. Never. It is just getting so mortifying
