This is her mum commenting on Jack's ranty post. Does this sound like a woman who would let their child and grandchild go without? No.
Absolutely I do. As a matter of fact, here he is stealthily reading that cheeky little article about his beloved in the Telegraph
And when he’s back in her delightful company again and she’s having a meltdown about being VINDICATED, here he is placating her and

Jack's mum sounds nice. Having said that, I did assume at first that the "very popular 8 year old" bit was sarcastically referring to Jack...

Even if, in a parallel universe, her whole backstory were true - she would be a catastrophically bad role model and not someone to be admired at all. If The Poverty was non-fiction, she handled everything in the worst possible way, and continues to do so.Exactly!
Debt is scary, and it's OK to acknowledge that. But to project a narrative that it's normal to ignore post to an audience of that size is the opposite of helpful!
The way Jack demonises any formal help (DWP, Social Services etc) is so harmful to the people she claims to be advocating for. If she framed it as "hey I know it's scary to contact these people but they can help" then I'd really respect her. But she makes it sound as if calling for help will cause a bleeping catastrophe and that's just unforgivable. Her devoted squigs are going to actively avoid seeking help because she's made them think that it'll make things worse.
There are very few people in this world who provoke a simple "duck you" response from me, but of those few duck Jack* the most. She's absolutely devoid of compassion.
*don't literally do this. No frau should risk becoming the next OH

That old profile (fully open to public, not being a naughty clone) is a goldmine of the Jack of old. She was still middle-class girl gone wrong. If you can bear scrolling back to 2013, there's an awful attack post on David Amess. I don't feel comfortable screenshotting that out of respect for David.
Just because she "earned" below minimum wage today, doesn't mean that tomorrow she won't earn 3 grand or whatever the Patreon is supplying.
She really thinks that she's the smartest person in the room, always.
Buffoon

I just wanted to respond to this. I’ve been moving since I was 16. I’m a couple of years older than JM. I moved out of the family home because my mum was a J1g and my dad went awol. I will give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe her parents were awful. Doesn’t sound like it tho
Wow, only 2-3 years post-Poverty, Jack's Mammy was able to spend £10-15 a week on presents! Much poor!
Such a martyr. Not that it's true, but if you're choosing to deliberately be poor to devote yourself to campaigning - you chose that life, you don't get to whinge and play the victim. You even less get to rattle your begging bowl at your moron followers.
I'll believe her poor martyr campaigner act when she donates her monthly £2600+ Patreon loot to foodbanks.
How long has she had to finished this bloody book?! Then this, the night before it's supposed to be handed in?

I always find these exchanges interesting. Squig is more than likely talking about any negative press or the odd dissenting Tweeter, but Jack is always talking about us
So this is her final day before the book has to be submitted - and she has only just now realised there is no actual recipe method for this? Just blurb about herself and a list of ingredients?
She is so utterly hopeless and incompetent as a food writer it is beyond a joke.

Hey Jack, why not get a job AND campaign against poverty? You know, like most people who campaign have to do.
And also it's so disingenuous to claim to be 'one of the poor' and 'working for minimum wage' when you tweet all day, get a huge amount of passive income via PayPal and Patreon and do media work. Millions of people would kill for your privilege and would probably use it better.
and instead of working on it, she's writing performative notes on it and posting them to Twitter. Makes sense. I said it earlier but it needs to be repeated - I can't stand her simpering publisher
