i was clutching at my pearls when i read the 'us' parts. YOU DO NOT SPEAK FOR US JACK MONROE.It’s the ‘those of us outside the bubble’ that is infuriating me. She really needs to fuck off as far away as possible and stay there.
She's calling those string of GCSE tweets research?!
Poverty one-upmanship. You couldn't make this stuff up could you?
err correct me if i'm wrong but Jack DEFINITELY went through a wim hoff stage when she was dipping her little dainty pixie toes in the southend sea???
Lmaoo this is so concise yet so cuttingShe really thinks she's got something here doesn't she
Um 2 things...
Also, wasn't she in the 'towel section'? Has the price of towels risen in line with inflation? Does the price of towels fluctuate from day to day?Jack worked in a supermarket when she was a teenager. That was 15 or so years ago. Does she think they are still using the same operating procedures? They have undergone some of the most rapid changes in retail. In store prices are generally updated once or twice a week, it is not cost effective to do it more often. Though online Occado change daily, perhaps that is where she is referring to.
Once again using out of date information and experiences to rant about something she has no idea about.
YES! and then she casually throws in that she does THIS for free. People kind of nod in agreement 'yeah, she has got a point, the M&S meal deal has always been a tenner', they subscribe £3 a month and forget about her.This is what she thinks 'work' is doesn't she?
We’re at cross purposes - I was talking about the silly squig!But she doesn't let on to her parents she's hard up unless church/food bank people see her.
Hark at you Jack - look in the
Same - she seems to have this really odd Les Mis vision of the proles being helpless and desperate, just waiting for the great revolutionary leader. It says so much more about her skewed perception than it does about the reality of the political demographic in this country. It shows how utterly out of touch she is. If she had any real involvement at a grassroots political level (no, turning up late to mouth off at conference once a year doesn’t count) she’d be able to start to grasp the reality, particularly of how the Conservative party have conned people with very little. To present it the way she does is idiotic and actually sinister.Lmaoo this is so concise yet so cutting
Maybe the manTM has brainwashed me but surely it’s obvious that cheaper products have smaller margins so can’t stomach rising costs? Believe it or not brands are for profit entities so will always pursue people… with cash. No one is trying to milk a few extra pennies out of the poorest when you can get £££ out the middle and upper classes who’ve done better out the whole pandemic?
Thats obviously not disputing that all these rising costs disproportionately impacts them and they need help with that (the balance sitting in Jack’s PayPal would be lovely for a food bank?) but it’s not this anti poor conspiracy / genocide. I find that chain of her argument really anxiety inducing tbh.
Who is going to point out that 500g bags of rice are always more per g than 1kg bags. It’s same with all economies of scale.
Woke up hungry! Probably because she thought she'd done a good days work yesterday.
