Jack Monroe #149 How dare you defile our oats?

[MooBelle]

Her best mate Hazzzzers?

No, don't be silly.
The only thing she speaks to her bff Prince Harry about is cataloguing her home made pornography.

*For fraus new to the cabal she actually said that Prince Harry helped her find out who had been releasing revenge porn, even though no one has ever released naked pictures of her.
Apparently HRH had the top tip of zooming down to pixel size and typing a reference number on photo before releasing it to your beloved.
Yes, she actually said this happened.

I took it as her saying - Please, someone, give me a contract to write this book. I did not know about the Nadiya Husssein program, was it good?

BBC One - The Chronicles of Nadiya

Nadiya Hussain explores the recipes that have shaped her love of cooking

Yes, it was lovely. Nadiya is a really relaxed, watchable person. I do think JM was thinking jealously of this particular programme.

I thought that, too. If it’s a rip off of someone’s intellectual property, isn’t that distinctly uncool? She’s very concerned about potential niche stealers, and her “life’s work”. Well, how about the people who designed that £250 jumper that you’re pretending you got as some kind of a cheap knock off? The people working in the factories who make this stuff? Anything to say about that, Jack?

Aside from the fact that it is illegal, owning up to buying fake goods is really stupid. The profits from counterfeit goods fund all sorts of bad tit.

I'm back from the vaccination. I was so impressed with the set up, really amazing. Full marks to the NHS.

Glad you got the vaccination. Most people at work had a few side effects especially first dose. I had just sore arm and headache for first, and tiredness for second. Fever/ chills seem very common for a day or two, so go easy on yourself for a bit.
Looking forward to serious vaccine side effects Jack.

I had a bit of a headache and low fever after, so put your feet up and take it easy, my dear heart.

NHS and lots of wonderful volunteers coordinating at my vaccine place, it made me very emotional, all that pulling together. They were so busy, but was running very smoothly, and all with such kind and welcoming attitudes. It was that sort of elusive Blitz Spirit™️ people love harping on about.... I think I might have felt a bit of it

Re kitchen interview, has she moved a soft pink velvet curtain into the kitchen as part of the kitchen makeover? I don't think it was shown in previous kitchen photos. Why on earth would you put a velvet curtain in a kitchen. The smells and grease from cooking and humidity would ruin the fabric. Is this a landlady curtain or one gifted/puddled?

 

[Captainmouse]

It is very very strange to plead poverty wearing a £250 jumper. I have never owned a piece of clothing worth that much. Even my wedding dress cost less than that (almost a child bride in the 1990s? completed it mate)

I’ve got a cashmere coat that costs less than that

 

[LyraBalaqua]

That jumper was revolting when Diana wore it and its appearance hasn’t been improved by time.

Not only is Jack a begging charlatan she also has appalling style.

 

[Soapy Dolphin]

Sorry, harking back to the OJ interview. Sheesh, it was tedious! I kept fast forwarding and she was still droning on about the same thing. Why did OJ not interject more – was he having a kip or a sneaky sarnie?
It irked me when she said she had to wait to get benefits because she chose to have a baby. You do other women a disservice by claiming it was your unruly womb that kept you off benefits.

@Sideboard Bob Really appreciate your words. Thankspaceyou x.

 

[colouredlines]

I once bought a 200€ coat. It was a classic style in black, and I wore it for three winters.

That jumper is a fleeting trend - a fact that is exacerbated by its loudness. It'll look ridiculously passé in no time at all. What a waste of money that could be used to, I dunno, pay rent?

 

[Marmalade Atkins]

I don't think she's claiming to be wearing a counterfit jumper. The sheep jumper is made from the original design.

 

[Billybellend]

Late to the party as ever, but that bath stuff she made Must have been a biiiiiig horse...

 

[SamFoxStuckinaCloak]

If I could easily afford it (she can) I would spend £250 on a NICE jumper. So few of us with white as mayo skin can pull off red.

When I embarked on my current career, I had it in my head that the day I secured my first proper contract I’d treat myself to a Bella Freud jumper. They’re stupidly expensive, and it became this symbol to me. I ended up buying one off eBay (meant the same) and still have it now.

 

[bladiesla]

Oh, I actually like the jumper! But would never pay 250 for it of course.

As for Diana, I don't care about the monarchy or their drama whether that is current or past stuff. This week it showed that the Royals have been able to personally vet more than 1000 laws since Lizzie has been a monarch, which is a ridiculous thought (being able to influence politics only because you were born into a certain family, not because you were elected) and I don't understand people's affection for royal families (I don't actively hate them, I mostly do not care).

"Charles said: 'Will you marry me?' and I laughed. I remember thinking, 'This is a joke, he’s not seen my unruly labia,' and I said: 'Yeah, OK,' and laughed, as I slung another rinsed hoop in the slow cooker," Monroe told the Daily Mail. "Charles was deadly serious. He said: 'You do realize that one day you will be the Povvo’s Princess?’ And a voice said to me inside: 'You won’t be the Povvo’s Princess but you’ll have a tough role.' So I thought 'OK,' so I said: 'Yes.' I said: 'I love you so much, I love you so much.' He said: ‘Whatever love means’ as he threw another pile of destitution letters into the rabbit hutch’

Plus her use of "feral" when talking about the children her parents fostered makes no sense when she talks about her fear of having SB taken.
If those kids were "feral" in terms of desperate behaviour like looking in bins for food then she'll know that social services only intervene in truly dire situations. It makes no sense.

When she talks about her fears of having SB taken into care, all I can think about is that mumsnet thread she started when she wanted to report a woman in a beer garden to social services in order to gets her kids taken away from her.

Nadia She is just so authentic and warm. She is essentially the opposite of Jack and successful.

Agree with all the Nadiya-love, you’re so right about her being the opposite of Jack, she’s so genuine. Also, “The Chronicles Of Nadiya” is a brilliant pun!

Why hang coat hooks on the curtain rail? You can’t draw the curtain so why is it there?
