Wasn't there some scandal with Linda and the awful ripper museum? Also, a hoo haa around the LGBT+ awards in Aus a few years ago?

ETA Sorry! I meant to put this behind a spoiler.
Yes Linda Riley is a friend of Jack AND the person behind the abhorrent Ripper museum.

Cripes!
Blue squig has featured before. Set up a Twitter account this May, has one follower, fights Jack's battles and generally arse licks.

Cu*t or cu*t?
She's also "devastated" about the Depp/Heard verdict.

IDK what all this Caledonian Road tit is either. It’s the Cally. Bloody mockneys.

And yeah, as other posters have said you aren’t going to get a dress from a charity shop in London for a couple of quid. I’ve seen used designer gear that’s still priced at a couple of hundred. Charity shops are much more savvy nowadays.
I've been a charity shop afficionada my whole lifetime or so I thought until I ventured to various cities and excitedly visited chazzas in posh areas hoping to nab some bargains. Probably ten years ago or more, Oxfam Kensington, the cheapest item was a pair of £90 used jeans. A chazza in Clifton, probably another Oxfam, everything I liked was well out of my budget, even my new things budget, v disappointed, thinking I'd be coming home with unimaginable treasures, I hadn't realised that everyone has caught on to the joys of a good old rummage 🤣
And another boutique style chazza in Glasgow, can't remember the area, looked very chichi, thought I'm bound to strike it lucky, I actually felt like an undeserving skank fingering their beautifully displayed silken smalls (& way too small for me, I'd have ended up taking a knife to my overpriced charity shop... pants... da duck?!)

This is the start of Pride month isn’t it? Jack can’t come out as having an old Harold this month. I wonder if it’ll be like the Gingerbread thing where they say it’s ok she’s going out with a man, but identifies as a lesbian.
I don't know why she doesn't just come out as bi, so she can be victimized by both sides.

Take a Jack!
I’ve fallen in love - with myself!
I thought I only liked bollocks in my sausages - until I met Harold!
I decked my wimp brother, at Christmas!
A white winger said “keep your legs shut” so I kicked him!
I bit a 50p size hole in my lip, but red lippy cured me!
I made a box - out of a box!
I fell down the stairs AGAIN - and forgot I supported QPR!

The Cotswolds 🔺-ish is where it's at for posh charity shops, lots of small local charities that don't have the time to do ebay selling, they mark things up a little, but it's still cheap. We went for a day trip to one market town and got literally hundreds of pounds of high end baby clothes for less than £20 shortly before baby cucumber was born.

It's more proof Jack knows nothing of the subject matter and is a sneery snob. She really thinks all charity shops are dingy places, where everything is a quid. Even the more regular ones by me are like little boutiques.

Every time you mention baby cucumber I get cartoon love hearts in my eyes.

Ooh good tip, I haven't been there for years but many moons ago got a beautiful Boden raincoat in a Cotswolds chazza , not a big Boden fan but it really suited me. Obvs I put on a shitload of weight and had to be airlifted out of it or somesuch drastic tight clothes chaos

There’s a lot of shady tit about Jack’s mate Linda. Here’s a Private Eye expose: https://imgur.io/a/fnI43o2

The entire world of diversity awards and organisations is seriously dodgy and doesn’t surprise me Jack keeps winning ‘awards’ from them.
