Jack Monroe #209 Jack Monroe is late to conference

[Pocahontas]

Congratulations to @Ispyabudgetbeanblogger (what a mouthful) and @FrumpyCat for two different nominations of this thread title. You can also go to conference.

So, Jack came back to Twitter on the Saturday to campaign against the £20 cut to Universal Credit. It was an excellent opportunity to remind everyone that she, too, used a food bank. Also that she went shopping a few times, spent £20 on a pile of mismatched yellow-stickered food, took photos and and waited for her Nobel Prize.

Journos! Take note! This is what £20 looks like in groceries. ©️JACK MONROE @BootStrapCook

She spent a lot of the day arguing her points, but has been quiet today, probably cos she’s busy at the Labour Party Conference.

Spoiler: Housekeeping

Please use the words ‘thread title’ (two separate words) when making a suggestion, as it’s easier to search. Also, please hold off to the latter part of the thread if possible (after post #500). And remember - no swears are allowed.

There is a thread in the off topic forum called Food and Drink where off topic chat is encouraged if / when Jack is quiet.
New to Jack? Have a look at the wiki (pink button).

no sign of jack on the conference website or, indeed, anywhere on the labour site. is she just gonna be turning up in Brighton tomorrow and standing on the front giving it the whole "I'm jack monroe, single mother, food writer, cook, nigella botherer...." business

maybe meet up with matt and sali to compare tattle notes

"I'm the most hard done by!"
"no, I am!"
"they triangulated my toaster!"

I love that the first line of the Tattle result in Google is 'performative food and thirst trap bollocks'

Really lets you know what you're in for.

Is she at conference like piers corbyn is to Jeremy corbyn?

So Jack monroe is at the Labour Party conference 2021. I hope she pays the tax for her company on a bootstrap limited.

Jack Monroe Director of On a bootstrap Ltd who didn’t pay any taxes since 2019, you mean?

Yes, I believe we are thinking of the same Jack monroe. I would have assumed that Jack monroe would pay taxes before complaining about boris Johnson and saying she will be speaking at the Labour Party conference 2021

Thanks, @Pocahontas. @FrumpyCat, can't wait to see you at conference. I'll be wearing a pineapple hat, so you can find me.

I was surprised not to see 'no pub quizzes on the main thread' under that spoiler.
My question would be: who wears grey pants and doesn't pay their taxes?

DuckDuckGo gives this, which is not as funny, but kind of awkward. “IT LEFT!”

I was just thinking this thread tittle has “CAROLE MALONE IS AWAY” energy, and then the attempts to influence Search Engine Optimisation began.

Jack monroe, blogger of hunger hurts and director of On a Bootstrap Ltd?

 

[EllaEm87]

Did they say it was the Labour Party conference, our lovely grifter with the multiple spenny Cotswold sideboards who hasn’t paid taxes, Jack Monroe? Or could it be more word trickery?

 

[L3moning]

Yes, I believe we are thinking of the same Jack monroe who was (and possibly still is) in a relationship with Louisa Compton- Head of Channel 4 news. I would have assumed that Jack monroe would pay taxes before complaining about boris Johnson and saying she will be speaking at the Labour Party conference 2021

But I thought SHE LEFT!

And I'm reminded of the stuff about Sue Perkins from a couple of threads ago.

Jack Monroe Director of On A Bootstrap Ltd which hasn’t paid taxes since 2019 and is speaking at the Labour Party conference (in an event which I would call “Jack Mon-woe is me- cultural appropriation of working class queer female stories” but then, I am a mithering ninny) that Jack Monroe that hasn’t paid tax?
I have to also say, if tax squiggle reads here, sorry you felt you had to go private, we just really love you

You forgot “they even named themselves after my cats arse”!

An interesting view on what a taxpayer is…… income tax clearly isn’t on Jack monroe’s radar. I look forward to Jack monroe’s visit to the Labour Party conference 2021

I dont think she is with L, i dont think she has anyone around her much hence the look at me look at me.

Fair enough I’ll report this bit

ETA: even though during this period she was claiming she couldn’t afford butter and needed to do the £20 shop when her fiancé was very well off
