My tip is ‘toast is great’.
Tinned beans, tinned spaghetti, tinned soup all taste better with toast. No rinsing required. A quick and easy meal, butter is obviously optional.

That eye was so…..sparkly! Did she fall over in Boots?

I hope the very brown index is on paper as we all know how good her maths is.

I reported the suicide description tweet as ‘offensive and harmful’. The way that she reels off those words without including trigger warnings shows that she is an attention seeking narcissist. I wish I had reported the r*pe descriptions too. She is full of tit.

As someone who's dissertation was very big on research, spreadsheets and big maths. The whole vbi actually pisses me off no end. Her whole approach to collecting, using and presenting data is not it.

Kier Starmer: Jack you were asked to write something for the manifesto about food prices, why haven’t you done it?

Right Hon Jack: it’s 300 pieces of A4 paper with important words on, I think I know more than you about A4 love

KS: but it needs to be emailed today

Right Hon Jack: I said A4 Kier A4

Also, given that the whole project is apparently focused around supermarket food prices it's a conflict of interest for Asda to be in any way directly involved with it.
It also gives them an unfair market advantage over the other 3 of the big 4, because they'll have access to all this info quicker & easier. So the project will itself disadvantage everyone whose most accessible supermarket isn't Asda. Congrats hun Jack.

I don't believe that the VBI will ever materialise but if it does then the ethics around how it's been developed are appalling.

Nobody even wants postcards of Scottish celery or porny syrup pancakes. Jack could have made her Patreon purely online content - a new recipe each week, exclusive angry essays, her godawful poetry etc etc, and everyone would be happy.

The fact that she is too thick and lazy to even manage that speaks volumes.

Vegetable peelings in the freezer until you can make stock from it all?! duck me, how much is a box of veg stock cubes in Lidl? About 20-30p I expect (this is not because I’m so rich that I’m out of touch, I just never buy it!). Imagine the sadness of pulling out a year-old frozen box of peelings and boiling it all into brown water.
