Yikes. That Metro article is ridiculous. Teflon Jack strikes once again, hope the vegans wipe the (linoless - still waiting for updates on that) floor with her.

Actually...I wonder why 27kViggle didn’t get a chance to respond in the article? I wonder if she even knows about it?! Seems odd for the Metro to have picked this up, no?
What the actual duck is this?
not to be a ‘powerful backer’Truther but I can’t actually believe what I am reading. I get if someone is starving then a Tin of sasuages rather than nothing has its place. But that isn’t even what jack is promoting. She loves meat fat, lard, serving her son low quality meat while she has £120+ Nike trainers and art and massive fridges.
I wish she would spill whatever dirt she has and get it over with as this article is appalling.

save me HMRC, you’re my only hope

I guess now’s as good a time as any to share this ultimate “send doggos” moment.

Paul McCartney’s dog Martha was, as the kids say, an absolute unit.

Eats fish regularly 🥱🙄.. <insert Kandi the lies gif>


ETA..this nonsense

The best-selling author clarified that she went fully vegan for around two years but now eats white meat and fish two to three times a week out of a potential 21 meals.

She said: ‘Regression wasn’t a flippant decision; I have arthritis and other health conditions which means I need the complex omega structures that fish proteins provide.
Absolute bull. I have varying ailments - including a rare variety of eye dystrophy, one up on ol' Mackie - which means I have to have those omega bits and bobs, but I'm veggie.

Somehow, softly, gently, I managed to get a Very exclusive vegetarian version. (tesco do 'em)

Oh looking forward to seeing exactly where Ken Loaches muse for I Daniel Blake, poverty campaigner and socialist, aka our Jackie, places herself in the #istandwithKenLoach argument. I cannot wait to see who she’s prepared to upset or what her bio may include in the next few days. I love it when she’s conflicted 😀

That thread makes me want to drown in a bath of chicken porridge. It’s up there with the Mediterranean arse stereotype

I feel like we need a map of the world to mark all the different nationalities she’s made cringe.

She’s like the great, great, great granddaddy was Irish so she is Irish American right now. I’m away to bed as I’m SLEEPY.

More Jack quotes :rolleyes:

"I was a young mother with a dependent. I went from nice flat and fire service job to cold and hungry with a child. I lived rough for two years, with six months relying on the food bank."
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/jack_monroe_1100433

"I spent 18 months with the furniture parked in front of the radiators, cooking as quickly as I possibly could to use the least amount of gas and electricity. I unscrewed the lightbulbs in the hallway, unplugged everything at the wall so not even the LCD display was blinking away on the oven."
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/jack_monroe_1100501

"I'm not organised, and I don't cope well with deadlines, structure and routine. I'm chaotic. Always have been."
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/jack_monroe_1100488

"It took 24 years for me to harness my autistic traits into something useful, and I have grown to regard them as a kind of superpower. Cooking, to me, is akin to algebra, and my mind a pocket calculator."
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/jack_monroe_1100471

"When I was born my parents lived in a flat so small that it now legally can't be rented out as a dwelling."
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/jack_monroe_1100408

Edit: It is most enlightening to google these quotes, and see where they came from. The sleeping rough claim came from the Washington Post with an American interviewer; she probably thought she could get away with saying that to them, knowing that they won't know it means sleeping on the streets. Link here.

Edit II: Pretty sure a flat legally too small for a dwelling for two people would be less than 110 square feet. Jack is claiming when she was born, she lived in a flat less than 10.5 x 10.5 feet. Legal reference.

The Metro article is a shocker. Even the headline is misleading: “Jack Monroe defends vegan partnership with Linda McCartney after backlash because she eats meat.“ The problem with JM isn’t that she eats a bit of meat/fish but more her attitude to meat and animal welfare, and her lack of respect to veganism. Also, the fact that she doesn’t exactly have a good track record when it comes to Veganuary. It didn’t mention how long it took for Linda Mac to reply to ANY of the criticism or even read the messages. And what’s with all this “occasionally” bunkum? There’s a heap load of lips and tits sausages have passed through her household (and, as has been mentioned, all of the dairy).

Oh yeah, and her food is tit. :sick:


“I thoroughly enjoyed working with Linda McCartney and it was a lovely campaign, with a hugely supportive team.” Hahahahaha! :ROFLMAO:

The whole thing reads like another LM/JM collab. Glad some viggles have spotted it.

She's such a sly, nasty little piece of work.

I won't bore on about him, but my husband had been homeless -actual living in a box type homeless - and for Jack to compare having to downgrade her luxury executive apartment to that just makes me angry. She's got no idea of the real world. She's like a child who has been set a creative writing task, and has to add *all* the cliched tropes to impress their teacher.
