It was better than I thought it would be, but all this amateur dramatics (going into their homes and āyanking food out their store cupboardā) doesnāt hit the mark for me. She sounded like she was going to burst into tears
Why does she keep getting these āgigsā?? Why not have the woman from the Trussell Trust, who will be better equipped to explain the situation *right now* as they see it? I couldāve gone on there and said itās not a taxi home or a Friday night pizza for some people.
Itāll be interesting to see if the viewers agree that that basket of food could feed an adult and a child for a week.
ETA - Bloody work! If anyone can get screenshots of the Twitter comments (not them all, obvs) Iād appreciate it, thank you
This is not a week's food for two people. I wonder why she keeps saying that.
That sounds rude to me. (Dirty minded, I know).
"Quick, quick, where's the toilet? I've got a chocolate candle in my pants."
Sorry for the mental image first thing in the morning. Not sure it's something I would want as a present, why not just give a bar of chocolate?
A few people have said they don't know where shes shopping as it looks like a ten pound shop.It was better than I thought it would be, but all this amateur dramatics (going into their homes and āyanking food out their store cupboardā) doesnāt hit the mark for me.

I genuinely donāt think she knows what a standard adult sized portion is. Also the second person she claims it will feed is either a child that isnāt with her full time or another adult who takes two bites and says āoh jack, youāve really outdone yourself, Iām stuffedā
Read the comments on Good Morning Britain? NahhhhLook at the response in the twitter comments though
@LennyBriscoe The replies are horrific right wing shitbags who will fuel Jackās engine for months. Including people saying about how has she got tattoos etc, ābumsā need to get a job and other hideous things. One guy saying he works in a game shop and people try to swap food vouchers for games and other lies. If Jack wasnāt off twitter sheād be exploding at them. To be fair I want to chuck my phone in the sea.
I just canāt understand why nobody sees the inherent contradiction in what she says. If thatās what she can buy why canāt everybody. I donāt view myself (or any of us tbh) as more clever than anyone else, and even without Tattle or our shared interest in Jack I would still think, hang on, that enforces their point. All the horrible, horrible replies are just Sun insults, not anyone saying that sheās making the point for the tories.
Sigh. She looked nice though, I thought.
ETA - I canāt listen to her, the phlegm sound gives me the heave, but you can still see her doing it! Aside from that, she looks well.

Is the grey jumper the new denim shirt?
is that the ābookshelf anguishā jumper?
1. Son is not a teenager
2. Edwina has also been on but sadly not at same time
3. That basket is not enough to feed 2 people for a week and still doesn't contain shower gel, toilet roll, cleaning products etc
As has been said, it's the same old comments on Twitter that don't help the cause. I do try to ignore Boris, so really don't remember him saying he can't live on his salary - is that true?

Jack is in the limelight, relative to RM, and turning up when someone searches @BootstrapCook gets her some attention. Jack and her basket of food is the same idea as RM tweeting her Chartwells food photo. Also, it isn't one of Jacks regular shops as she can't incorporate the yellow stickers around which she builds her meals.
Oh god she was in London today? (Yesterday?)
I won't be watching the GMB piece but she will be dining off of this for weeks.
Prepare yourself for some smug 'behind the scenes' posts lads.

I don't understand the big bag of crisps thing either. She'd have been better swapping it out for some pasta / rice, because as it is I can't see any decent proteins or starches/carbs there. Also this is why I commented about the Too Good to Go app the other day - Morrisons do a big box of fruit and veg for Ā£3.50 or so, people will know that you can get what is immediately apparent in her basket for much cheaper. In short, as usual, she's doing more harm than good.
Manchester
"The Ā£20" is trending on twitter, if this doesn't bring her back there nothing will.
People are saying such horrible things, 1% about her but if she replies sheāll be implying she is in the same boat as the people sheās claiming to help when lest we forget she was not a tracksuit wearing Jeremy Kyle watcher.
I have just written an essay on the RoadsideMum thread that was, in essence, your two sentences.
Am I Jack?
