That was THEN this is NOW etc
It would be quite normal for people to change their opinions and stances over the course of a decade (for example, many of us here liked JM to start with. That was THEN and this is NOW ). With Jack it's not so much a change in opinion, it's jumping on a bandwagon when it comes along and rewriting the past when it suits (about being working class, about vortng, about being a vegan, about basically anything).

I think overall there is too much of an obsession with people in the spotlight about what they did or said 10 years ago without looking if they have changed since then, of if they have made amends (I am glad some of my dumb jokes as a student have been forgotten, or perhaps are only stored in an email on a hotmail account that is not used anymore). But it is not JM's critics that keep going back to the past, Jack is the one always brings it up. Her latest piece agian was harping on about The Poverty a decade ago (for fairness, I did not read all of it as it was so dreadfully written)

In a way she has hardly changed. She hasn't become a better cook (she could have), and definitley has not improved her writing. She hasn't become organised as a campaigner (she's not set up a charity, or taken a role in an organisation for a cause she says she does so much for. Het t-shirt action was done in a whim without even checking with theTrussel Trust).

She is stuck.

It very much is stealing from black women. My best friends wife is black, and would eviscerate Jack for this. However I won’t be sending it to her because, well, black women are fucking done educating white women on their privilege when they could just as easily fucking Google it.

I don't know what the 'suggesting' thing is about, that's been coming up often recently
I was wondering that too. It turns out it’s from the title of her latest blogpost. I wonder if she included her own name in the title to hack the Matrix Twitter algorithm?

Her followers really are a bunch of snivelling little lickspittles, falling over each other to threaten people for wrongthink on their queen's behalf. I bet they were all grasses at school.



Literally incapable of lying though.

She once claimed to be so thin her collarbones poked out.



Admittedly she looks slimmer in old photos, but I’ve never seen any photo where she’s close to bones sticking out.

On this beautiful Sunday morning I just want everyone of you to take a moment and think about this.

8 out of 100 on pointless and the contestant got her name wrong.

That's how well known she is

You don't tick a box on a ballot paper, you cross it. I wonder if she has ever actually voted?
I also wondered the same. I thought perhaps her parents were out and out Tories so voting Labour would be an act of rebellion which she just wasn’t brave enough to do.

if she'd actually ever had an ED she'd understand how triggering that description is, although even if she was aware it's not like she would care because she is such a colossal cunt

I’ve had that come up before as well. I wouldn’t trust anything on twitter, particularly as she is paid by them.

there was a whistleblower from twitter who said the algorithm was deliberately set to promote more left than right wing views, I don’t know if this is true or not but it is increasingly concerning that people are happy to be in an echo chamber, not hearing anything that conflicts with what they want to hear. Like when the squiggs are presented with the tax evidence and admission and don’t believe it

I did wonder if many of them are sock accounts for Jack but the number of them do suggest actual people

Radio 4's hagiography wasn't sufficiently reverential for some.

Can anyone come up with any examples of kindness, generosity, humour and resilience? I mean there was that time she sent random folk Lion bars which was quite nice, I suppose but mostly she's just mean spirited, grasping and spiteful.

This is so true. Why hasn’t she set up her own charitable organisation? Probably because the rules for charities are incredibly tight and onerous. But what is her actual campaign? Down with Tories? Up with slop? There’s not one clear message. At least with THAT MAN he is consistent about wanting better quality food for children and that what he campaigns on with practical solutions rather than just naming kids with ricketts
