New affluent worker here, which actually feels about right. Also was able to just squeeze into the pre-boom house ownership.

I got New Affluent Worker too, which I don't completely disagree with. Though it probably bases some of that on owning my home, which while I do, it's a mobile home that I bought for 6k and did up myself, let's not have any delusions of grandeur

Thyme?? Really?



Her most recent liked tweet seems to completely contradict the LITERALLY STARVING tweet which is being quoted. Jack's saying she was thin when she was 'starving' but squig is saying the poorest people aren't thin?

Jack was not LITERALLY STARVING during the Great Poverty in 2012.

Here is some evidence from archives of her deleted blog agirlcalledjack.com (which is a goldmine of truth, no wonder she whooshed it).

Jack on October 18th 2012, at YMCA Southend’s Question Time, where Jack was a panellist.

YMCA Question Time In Brief

Just briefly before I step into my busy day, I was delighted to be a part of the panel for the Southend YMCA Question Time last night. I started to do a head count in the audience but I couldn't re...

Diamond Jubilee Community Champions - Southend On Sea Borough Council, 5th September 2012

From the Southend On Sea Borough Council Website, published 5th September 2012. Jack Monroe. Twitter: @MsJackMonroe

These links are worth a read; she discusses her voluntary work, and on the 12th September one mentions having a job.

The 5th September entry features an image from Southend Council website’s own page on the Diamond Jubilee Community Champions, and they describe Jack as a single mum who works 40 hours unpaid per week.

If she had actually done that degree she would understand that starvation and malnourishment are two different things

Quite the masculine aesthetic going on there. If a masculine aesthetic is middle class baptist Sunday school teacher

I’m emergent service worker (is that middle or WC then?), which seems a bit wrong considering I’m not working, but hopefully that is just temporary and when I do work it is in service industry (design) so it’s quite right. Most of my friends are artists who are poorish but with wealthy parents (they don’t pretend to be poor like Jack though)

Stolen shamelessly from a Twitter squg. Another sighting of Jack’s highly original “ Eton mess “ joke made 2 years before her protest. By a tory

Baroness Warsi did that tv show where she had a go at stand up comedy and she was funny, I think she’s also a bit less Tory
