Jack working in care??
(Ex care home Frau)
As a current care home frau I would hate to manage her I have some mentoring responsibilities and can only imagine that getting her to hand in and sign off the sixteen different aspects of care would be like getting homework off Vicky Pollard. However, I have worked in places that employed anyone who turned up for an interview. Well they did until the new starter helpfully moved several TV sets into their car and drive off

Why won’t she be an MP? She would lose. I don’t think any of the main parties would touch her. She wouldn’t pass vetting.

She would need to be accountable in theory. She would need to get off her arse and do some work and she would get nowhere if she stood as an independent as I said earlier.

This has really bothered me. If I’d been that poor man my anxiety level would have gone through the roof and it would probably take me until next week to feel normal again. It’s very likely he’s struggling today after last night, even if the flying monkeys move on the damage is still done.

That minimising made the whole thing worse in my eyes - she gnashes and claws for days after people question her on anything, yet here some poor bloke ended up being piled on and he's expected to just move on...

Constituent: I’m really unhappy with what you have done about local issues ie: nothing
Right hon Jack: LEAVE ME ALONE, I’ve got bad mentals

Paxman: Thanks for joining us, Jack. Can you start by telling us your priorities?
Jack: I do a LOT of charity work, quietly, softly behind the scenes, UNPAID!
Paxman: But you’re paid as an MP? A base salary of…£81,932? How is that unpaid?
Jack: A worked myself into the ground for 10 YEARS, after ‘The Poverty’, helping others, offering free recipes, giv…..
Paxman: If I may, I have one of your recipes here. Salad bag pesto. Did you find a lot of struggling people had a surplus of pre-bagged salad?
Jack: You’re missing the point. The main aim was to lower food waste by using a personal example.
Paxman: But in early 2022, you went food shopping, whilst having huge amounts of food in your store cupboards. How is that reflective of the struggles of people in poverty?
Jack: *whimpers* I am the saviour of the povs.
Paxman: No, Jack. I’m afraid not. Now, let’s talk tax…
