I literally go 80km to buy Kewpie brand mayo (not available in my city) just to avoid Hellmanns. #JustSayNoJack is almost the anti-christ of influencers, thanks to her I will never donate to the Trussell Trust, buy anything from Hellmans or Linda McCartney and am considering a boycott of Tiggy & Bo and Superdrug
CHAPEAU CHAPEAU. Go well pal, etc etc
Jack! Dresserman is all up in your niche! Has even stolen (which is allowed tbf) two thirds of your VBI initials! Call policios.
Beautifully written. You are a National Treasure. Thank you for all you do

No Heinz?
Nearest allotments are 1.7 miles away. No way PAL!Nah she neglects her garden, there is no way she will go an a waiting list for an allotment, she can’t travel to wherever her nearest allotments are. Carrying all the necessaries, and she’s too damm lazy, as if she will go twice a day, early morning, late evening to water
Edit - Actually some are nearer 1.2 miles but might require stab vest as rougher than Glastonbury.

Not sure where this will land, got some catching up to do, but I agree with your points - so many small businesses are affected by this!
My parents owned and ran a small shop. The goods they sold were more expensive at their local wholesale outlets than the supermarkets were retailing them for, so they were on a hiding to nothing trying to make a meagre profit. They were robbed so many times - always the cigarettes that went first - until eventually they couldn't afford to even insure the premises. (They lived above shop, too, and one night they heard a noise and went from bedroom to living room and there was a guy in there, about to lift their TV! Very scary!) Every time they were broken into again after that, because of not being insured they were just losing their own money, and they didn't have a lot of that to start with (working class, very poor while we were growing up).
I doubt very much the people stealing from them were starving because of what they targeted - there was a fridge containing milk and food basics but that never got touched, they were just after ciggies to sell for profit. Shame they didn't see the bigger picture as they ended up putting my folks out of business, but they probably wouldn't have been interested in that in any case.

I've hesitated even commenting on the subject because WackoJacko saying it's OK infuriated me so much! I really hope this comes back to bight her on the arse! ALL stealing is wrong, especially when there is help for mums with babies, food banks, etc - we all know we shouldn't have them as a society, but we do. Jack's not quirky or whatever she thinks she is, she's just a jumped-up little tit who thinks she can get away with anything because she's "disabled, autistic, ADHD, whatever" etc etc. (As a wheelchair user myself, that symbol in her bio infuriates me even more...I could honestly slap her with an over-cooked pumble and a slab of nightmeat, but let's not go there! I know I'm only winding myself up, not her!)
PS changing the subject
- are we allowed to use hashtags (real or made up) when we're replying? Thankspaceyou in advance!

OMG this is priceless (pun intended).
I’m perpetually endlessly bothered by the way she talks about and describes children. Whether it’s the feral foster children, her own son who when discussing his babyhood in an interview called him (multiple times) “it”, plus “giving it a pat” in the incubator, and having a child being “like having a dog”. Now this charming paragraph about children. Bloody nonsense from unruly people. duck right off Jack you vile narc.
For me it's not so much that - because sex appeal is incredibly subjective of course - but more that I suspect she's too much up in her own head to really understand sensuality full stop. So when she tries to play sex goddess, it just feels really wrong and awkward, like when Ariana Grande was forced by her label to pivot from sweet songstress to hawt sex goddess in her Dangerous Woman era but it was akward and unconvincing af.
You can just tell when someone is cosplaying and isn't really feeling it. Put it this way, in terms of sensuality, if Nigella is Lurpak, then Jack is Aldi's knock-off of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter.
Also, thinking back through all the Jacks - Singing Jack was also pretty bad. When she put out YouTube videos, 90% of which were about her saying she'd always wanted to be a singer but her confidence was destroyed by The Pov, and then the other 10% was her murdering some old pop standard in a warbling tone.

It’s very odd. I watched some of the happy mum happy baby podcast and she talks about SB in a very unemotional way. She talks about how easy parenting is and it doesn’t sound like there is any love there.
I think that should've have said "15 minutes an hour", not a day.
Exactly that. I’m not even a parent and I found it upsetting that someone would think about, let alone speak about their child like that in public. i guess it’s because she learned at a young age to be “empathetic and simultaneously detached” (how the duck does that work?). She also claimed in that podcast that her (crappy) attitude to parenting/her child was because she grew up military around the edges. bleep
Things like that make me believe that Jack does have some from of Autism Spectrum Disorder, tbh. Whether it's ever been professionally diagnosed I couldn't say, though.
I've never had Lurpak. I feel like I'm missing out on the revolution. I buy blocks of butter. Sometimes I even buy the Cornish seasalt one when I'm feeling fancy. I might start saving up so I can try some Lurpak one day. Or just steal one. Whatever.
Damn, Jack hasn't resigned 
Not who, but what. THAT, dear Detective Briscoe, is a fever dream nightmare version of one of those doll-things that old ladies used to cover their spare bog rolls in the 1970s. Send big crochet skirtos and Andrexos.
A wine aunt who got invited along to a hen do out of obligation and insisted on showing up in a big kerazeeee flower headdress because she’s so FUN only to be kicked out of the Be at One for groping a waiter after too many pornstar martinis.
