Idk why cringe bot wants to make his presence here known. I’d be mortified if I was secretly hanging out with a cabal of “middle aged menopausal women” some of whom are willing to shag Ian Hislop or crusty old Steptoe, yet we are in universal agreement that you are not serving us any sexual energy

Its unbelievable that she hasn't retweeted this campaign.

Actually it isn't. Her platform is for her self promotion
I agree it's really gross. And framing it as "I dont have to shout about everything I do guys!!!!" as its some kind of exercise in humility rather than failing to promote something incredibly important!!!!! Sick

Really hate this kind of rhetoric. It’s so divisive and reductive. So what if Tom Kerridge doesn’t have the lived experience of food poverty? He’s using his resource, know how and influence to help others who do.
I think the point of TK and MR being involved (and I may be completely wrong) is that they came from poor backgrounds and also have a lived experience of living in food poverty. Oddly, JM didn’t.

Absolutely disgusting, her fans trolling all the news of Marcus and Tom with comments like this







This one's from a blue tick. It's misogyny OBVIOUSLY.

I’m not condoning the theft but how different is it to her implying she is sooo poor to the extent someone sends uses their winter fuel allowance to help her ?

my personal view is the lack of use if her Twitter platform to promote what she alleges to be passionate about ( FSM food poverty food banks ) which would take five minutes a day to retweet speaks volumes as to her real passion which isn’t food activism

I'm really sitting on my hands here. Someone needs to tell these squiggles what's what. Preferably not a troll Tattle account either.

I will NEVER understand these squiggles. Even if you believe that Jack has been doing this for years (and it is debatable, as over 180 threads show), why oh why would you feel the need to passive-aggressively point this out? Isn't it fantastic that a HUGE star with a massive following is running with it?

And why would you care who is doing it as long as the meals are cheap, tasty and easy to follow?

If you're drowning you don't judge the hand that pulls you from the sea.

Fucking idiots.

i'm confused - squiggle didn't ask if Jack was involved ?!
Fucking hell! Squiggle is lucky she didnt get a tin of sweetcorn shoved up her patronising arse.

And he does anyway. It's just not his USP.

Or send her a cease and desist letter.

That would be really funny.

Why are the squiggles so bloody obsessed with her having the monopoly on cheap food?
 
Reactions: 45
She's a busy little maverick today it seems. If the Hellmans "Eye of Sauron" shitshow is being used as a case study/best practice I am HOOTING.

Jack - call off your flying monkeys. Show some dignity. Promote the campaign
