Thread title by @HotesTilaire nominated by @hydeist - congratulations, your prize is the world's smallest flat, I hope you'll be very happy there together.

In the previous thread Jack appeared on GMB to talk about the cost of living increases, took Content to the vet (again), said that she was downsizing to a small flat, stated and then deleted her intention to let SB take on her Twitter account admin for the summer and probably some other stuff that I've forgotten about because it's been a fairly bonkers 24 hours even for Jack.

New people to the thread, the Wiki is the pink button up top, and please use the words 'thread title' when you're nominating one.

Carry on!

On the GMB slot, Jack was more focussed on trying to score points off Andy and his think tank rather than actually discussing the energy crisis.

Jack had done some research and was going to use it whether it fitted into the discussion or not. A little background research is fine but that seemed to be all Jack had.

There was no signposting for those struggling.

And was amusing if not that surprising to see her stand up for current tory policy just to try and criticise Andy and the energy sector.

Jack you don't need to diminish someone else's light just to make your's seem brighter.

24 hours?! I'm flagging, how does she do it

Jack tweeted a screenshot from her bank account(s). Again. This time showing zero amounts and even minuses!

Such is her incredible intellect, the only way for her to plead poverty was to show precisely zero pounds and zero pence. Any amount in the hundreds or thousands just wouldn't do when it comes to illustrating she 'isn't comfortable'.

This thread title is beautiful! Toot toot!

GMB was definitely the result of J1G induced conspiracy paranoia.
Andy was basically agreeing with her to a certain extent that the government needed to do more and his views were just about the method in which it is used.

Thankfully she gave up on Cookie Thursday on the last thread. Very upsetting, that was. And today appeared on national television without the hair braids or PLAITS that she paid for just a couple of weeks ago. An aid to her personal care due to ouchy shoulders.

Tonight she was carrying a 13kg dog to the vets on one arm with a bag on the other 🙃.

ETA I'm a silly ninny. She was able to take a selfie of herself carrying a 13kg dog.

Well, at least she’s trying to be creative:
I have to carry my huge honking dog around so definitely need funding for a car/chauffeur/shoulder surgery or a new, rich beau.
Yes, the vet’s bills are crippling...rattle, rattle.
What’s that: you can’t afford fuel, food or school uniform for your kids? duck that, I’ve seen a new chapeau that would go with my teeth.

I, Jack Katie Scarlett Monroe Grifter O'Hara (Hamilton Kennedy Butler) with ma dainty feet and Mediterranean arse deserve everything I desire. (Sorry, I loved the Gone with the Wind reference upstream.) 😄

Never a truer word, squig! (About Jack's great exposé of the facist, capitalist, racketeering pigdogs - must have missed that bit. :p)

For her TV appearance, and despite owning some really expensive clobber, our heroine was wearing her “poverty jumper” and had removed both pairs of Tiffany earrings. While she could do nothing to disguise her rather remarkable tan, she could at least take comfort in the fact that viewers couldn't see the designer hammock she has spent the summer reclining in.

Oh dear. That full GMB video showed yet again Jack's inability to think on her feet or conduct an intelligent discussion.
She accused Andy of ~something~ in a long ramble. Ended up with 'is that true?'. He said 'no'. And as usual she did her shitting dog silent backing down and then just muttered 'meep' a few times.
Obvious she had done a bit of homework on him, thought she had an amazing gotcha, he easily rebuffed it and she just folded and sulked. As usual.

Absolutely this which is why she is totally unsuited for this 'role'

For anyone who can't bear to watch. She accused the IEA of taking the government/fuel companies position as they fund the IEA. She asked Andy about whether the IEA do that. He ~literally~ said 'No'. And he was scathing about the government policy.

ETA He (Andy) was scathing about policy. Jack just huffed and eye rolled.

She thought she was going full Newsnight on GMB, in fact she was like the kid who called Saturday Swapshop or Going Live and asked the pop star “why are you so bleeping tit?” Like it might seem like a gotcha but you just look like a juvenile

She had sulky Kevin the Teenager down to a tee.

She could have dug out the £250 jumper she wore to talk about socialism with little Owen Jones (not a murderer as far as we know).
