I would already prepare for combusting, I have been for a long time (combusting? Completed it, mate!) because it very much reminded me of a very very skint friend who I and others always bought the drinks for. Guess who owns property now. Sorry for another Scamsandwich example (told twice here already, yawn, but needs stressing) of a diverse and experience-rich life. Coven, grab a chair.

What’s baffling? She does have an Essex accent (I’m an Essex girl too ) but her accent isn’t coarse. My point was she always massively exaggerates her hardship, in this case by suggesting her accent (and working class background, tattoos and sexuality) is unpalatable to people/mainstream media and stops her from being taken seriously.

And the vast majority of white working class English people just would never use “Mama” because it’s either considered too posh/try hard, or like baby talk. You know what the Brits are like about class

She said the plant was covering a hole in the wall. Did anyone notice a hole in the wall on any of those pictures of the clean kitchen? There was a small screw hole where something had been taken down, but that would hardly need a Triffid to disguise it.

Surely this is never likely to become an issue for her?

If she wants to really go hard on the working class thing, idk why she doesn't just say 'Mam' or 'Ma'?

God all these news appearances. She'll really be thinking she's a big cheese. What's she gonna do when it all blows over and all she's left with is wondering what the feck to do with a giant freezer full of free fish

There isn’t a fucking hole in the wall you lying freak!!
I wonder if it's a plant that Louisa gave her. A subliminal message. It's like that 10CC song, I'm not in love.

I keep your plant,
near the wall
It hides a messy hole that's lying there.
So don't you ask me,
to give it back.
I know, you know, it doesn't mean that much to me.
