Was that the first recorded mention of her son ever coming in from school?
Next she'll be talking about helping him with his homework.
Blimey.
Isn’t her son’s school a 40 minute drive away?

And school typically finishes at 3:00-3:30pm? And he’s just arrived at hers about 4:15pm?

She’s acting like he’s just walked in home from school as normal, when he’s probably been dropped off by his dad for a visit.

Oh no, she’s now in *checks chart* Dickensian workhouse mode! Her core reactor will overheat if no one distracts her, quick, someone call Mum!

She’s not wrong about supermarkets paying incredibly low wages so employees need in work benefits being a disgrace. But to target one man makes her look unhinged.

I can't quite believe that tweet. It is so juvenile. It is like she has just grasped how business and capitalism works. Well the very basics. And she is writing a book about this? 😬
Has she changed her publisher to ladybird or John Wiley?

Her 'furious tweets' are pathetic. Jack you're sitting in your lovely place where you sit day and daily tweeting shite and have done for 10 years now. Your job at a supermarket was so short-lived it probably isn't worth talking about, if it even existed at all. You walked out of job after job because you had the luxury of being able to. Disrespectfully, duck off.

But she’s always saying her job is ‘incredibly demanding’ 🤯

Oh no! She’s going to turn up at her MP’s hustings!! He’s toast. He will be no match for Jack and her killer arguments. He will be absolutely shitting himself about this.
😂😂😂😂😂
That’s quite enough about Jack’s hustings, thanks-space-you very much.

What on earth is she going on about? Is she aware of The Health And Safety Executive? The Health And Safety At Work Act? The Manual Handling Operations Regulations?

Frauen…I was interviewing today and one of the candidates said she was ‘forensic’ with detail. Reader, she did not get appointed.

Quite. Some of us have worked for decades, still are. AND done things like go on strike (and lose pay when we can't afford to) in order to improve workers rights and pay.

She paid herself the living wage, and donated the rest: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/dec/17/jack-monroe-sainsburys-advert-blog

Of course, she paid herself the living wage for six weeks' work for a TV ad that probably took a day to film, but well done Jack, working class hero!
Even if this were true, I wouldn’t understand it. Surely one of the attractions of pursuing a career in the media is the above average salary. Why would one deprive themselves and their child of a better standard of living in order to donate money to a large charity, especially at the same time as trying to save for a deposit on a house in an area which typically sells for upwards of half a million pounds.
