It's amazing to me that she doesn't get that shrieking brain farts on twitter is not activism and helps no-one. I partly blame her half wit stans who mindlessly cheer everything she farts out and the media who once gave her a platform.

She was not asked to sign the letter because she does nothing and contributes nothing. The level of discourse on her twitter is embarrassing. "We should sack the government and give all their salaries and expenses to the poor!" "YES JACK YOU ARE A GENIUS YOU SHOULD HAVE BABIES WITH MARCUS RASHFORD AND BECOME QUEEN OF THE WORLD" (Jack clicks "like" on this tweet and replies "thankyou")

Her "I'm so tired" thing is disgusting. I am actually sickened by her. Firstly trying to profit off #thunderclapforcarers which she ditched at the earliest opportunity because it's all a mere diversion for her, then tearing the spotlight away from ACTUAL FAMILIES RELIANT ON FSM AND FOOD HAMPERS. I just can't believe she is allowed to get away with this shit. Search @bootstrapcook and "tip" on twitter if you want to feel the rage.

I remember years ago there was a point made about "white women's tears" by black people in anti racism spaces. And how difficult conversations on white privilege or racism would get derailed by white women weeping about how attacked they felt and how they weren't racist and how sad they felt to be accused of having white privilege, and then the spotlight would be on them and their feelings and everyone would focus on comforting them instead of dealing with the issues. I prob haven't explained it well, but it was about weaponising your status as a delicate fragile person to become the centre of attention (me-railing if you will). This is what Jack does and how she manages to continue tricking squiggles and gaining their sympathy.

Sacrafices are normal especially for your children. I rarely buy myself anything yet my children I spend money like her in a cotswolds sale. Although Im not as poor as she claims i willingly give over anything food I have if my child is in want of it. ( They dont do this often,but my sentiments are they need it more than me and I can always get something else)

Also if I ever got the point I couldn't feed my children I would ask my family and or friends if they could help or at the very least to go to my local authority with my bank statement and explain what the circumstances were.

Reading her hiding from the bailiffs and unopened letter stories she just buries her head in the sand and hopes it all goes away. That is the worst way to deal with anything.

A bit of both? I suspect he has been given 'advice' not to either by the food agencies he works with or by Manchester United who do work in their local community with regard to food poverty but also his style is so very different from hers and he really doesn't seem to have any agenda beyond making sure that children don't go hungry.

She said in her social posts the other day that it's so small it was ruled unsuitable for a human dwelling....? If it's that shit why has he set up a company around it? And even if it was then renting out unhabitable properties is hardly a socialist move is it lol.

Nah, they’re unfit for human habitation, according to Jack!

Good grief, I know we always say there's not an original thought in her head but getting her son to call her a name Allegra's kid uses takes it to whole new levels.

Not only that, but if Jack was the “working class, coarse Essex accent” kind of person she claims to be, she wouldn’t be Mama. Working class Essex people don’t use “Mama”. You’d have the piss ripped out of you for having ideas above your station.

It's probably only a 2 bed house, perfectly adequate for a single mum and child but not for her. She needs rooms for her fridges and sideboards.

Waiting to see if she will share it...!
Looking at her mentions on twitter there's useful stuff being put out there, cooking videos, petitions, etc. People are tagging her and asking her to share but she doesn't. It's almost like if it doesn't boost her personal profile she isn't interested ...

It’s envy, pure and simple. She has a huge sense of entitlement, if that comes at the detriment of others is of no consequence.

in her eyes she is entitled to a house, not a mortgage, an income, preferably without much if any work. She wants recognition, plaudits, she resents those that have these things and cannot understand why people aren’t falling over themselves to provide for her. She thinks others, have had everything handed to them, she doesn’t accept how hard they have worked to achieve.

she’s a champagne socialist.

I got to 28 seconds and suffer from SEVERE cringe. Her eyes dart every where, her voice quavers and catches. It is very uncomfortable viewing.
It looked like a hostage video.

More seriously she looks ill and someone who cares about needs to step in.

Still in the past (obvs) but Vlad has kindly suggested a designer grey jumper for me to fake cry in too.

Jokes on him because I have three grey jumpers I already cry in (I'm fine x)

Yes, she seems to think constantly saying things like 'I'm tired' 'it's wrong people are poor' 'I'm tired' 'some people have more money than me' 'I'm tired' constitutes work and that she should be handsomely renumerated for it.

If it had been true from the outset, I could go with it - because one of my offspring's first word, much to my eternal smugness, was 'Mama?' (the other one's was, like mine back in the Dark Ages, 'Tat' - meaning Cat). I had never used the word, she was in a home where I was called Mummy, but she called me Mama and I went with it - by Secondary School, it had changed to Mumma, mummmummummumma and Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuma, but that all started from her first summoning of me for attention. I got stick for it from the ex, as he thought it was trying to be posh when I was underclass scum, but nobody else ever said anything about it - to my face, at least.

Hers didn't do it at first - only after being around somebody else who did. So clearly chosen for either show or because it became an internet thing. Or he doesn't really do it, he calls her Mum like most kids in the London and Southeast do and she just wanks it up for the internet.

Yeah there's just no way. We call our Mum, Mum. When we were very little, Mummy. So so odd.
