She's liked this this morning and swiftly followed the person in question. I guess the promise of 'winding up the twats that attack you' was just too tempting to pass up.

My friend said this too. It's the new party line of the well off fauxcialist.
There's a meme something like ' who cares if Martin Lewis is minted or jack Monroe's accounts don't add up, (& some other bloke lynch ?) It doesn't matter because they're still highlighting the poors' or somesuch bollox.
Posted by a staunch lefty activist who was living the tory lifestyle long before any of our lefty friends and actual Poors even had jobs.
Always angry on behalf of marginalised groups but never actually experienced any hardship and never will.
Makes you think.
That was what they shared, i don't mind if Mick lynch had a nice house, or Martin Lewis they bloody work for it!

WTF (this thread is full of fawning replies). Some think she should get a honorary doctorate from the LSE.

Nice.

She has also retweeted her celery town event.

Stand strong everyone. I am no longer at the Wall, had I been I would have done my bit from Sycamore Gap.

Shameless. She sent a tweet ffs. And got the figures wrong, This is like the Life of Brian all over again. Accidental ’miracles’

No, that one was in the bedroom, and was much, much bigger.
How many nests are there?? I meant the one that Jack made and yeeted up the tree that totally convinced the tree surgeon so that he couldn't chop the tree down.

Oh wait....

I think what’s blowing my mind is that, despite having claimed to live in poverty, she rented that ‘bungalow’ which is far bigger than her needs just because… she could? I know she’s claiming that she was left in the lurch when one of her partners left her (I’m not sure which one, I haven’t been a Frau for long enough!), but surely it would have been bigger than the 2.5 (counting SB as a 0.5) of them needed anyway?
I just think anyone who had lived in genuine poverty would be a bit more careful about what they threw their money at, because surely, surely she knows that things can always take a turn for the worse?
Also, before buying our house we spent 5 years renting genuinely crappy houses, smaller than we really needed, so that we could save for a deposit. Surely that’s fairly standard?

Delurking to say that Jack Monroe has really really not changed the way the ONS measure inflation; they were measuring by income decile three years ago https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/infl...imatesforukhouseholdgroups20052017/2005to2019

That she will not correct this mis-attribution and will continue to lap up praise and calls for a Nobel prize is obviously par for the course at this stage, but I despair about the lack of critical thinking from the squigs 😬😬😬😰

Doesn't look like Molly's teaser has gained much traction. I wonder if Jack will ignore or feel forced to engage again?
I thought the same. I didn't find the teaser particularly shocking (sorry Molly 😐). There is so much that could be highlighted about JM but, like has been said before, there is no stand alone *clanger*. It's a culmination of fibs and grifts. I still think the Hunger Hurts 1/2 blogs need to be unpicked. My biggest gripe is the performative poverty cosplay. I was so disgusted by the most recent begging letter I was sure it was going to bring her down. The lies in that alone are obvious and potentially easy to disprove. I've barely seen it mentioned. It seems to have been conveniently brushed under the carpet and forgotten. I'm really hoping Molly pulls something out of the bag. I get the impression that people are watching and waiting to see where it goes. There are some influential eyes on the AW account and even the FMs are being cautious. The silence is telling. Feels like the calm before the storm. I hope. 🙏

Being mackie, ego the size of a planet, assumed she’d pop herself on the dating apps, and be snapped up in a trice, one and done
If Jack made as much effort with her career as she does with bagging the next wealthy partner she would have a lot more credibility.

Since her early days as the Guardian's favourite poor person, she has had some awesome opportunities, but she has spent ten years not developing. Her lack of political knowledge is pitiful, and as for spokesperson for the poor when she doesn't even have the most basic knowledge of understanding of current benefits legislation- all she ever does is shout' starved to death because of tory benefits sanctions'.

I would feel sorry for her about the whole AM thing and the widespread AM piss taking, if she had not been so vile to so many people.

Credit where credit is due, the OH must be made of sterner stuff than me. If I went to a girlfriend's house and saw that monstrosity I'd jump in my big car and head for the hills! 🚘

She also needs to use Jack Monroe's full name in any and all future posts. I think that's one of the reasons last night's teaser didn't get as much traction as it should have.

If I were Molly, I would put Jack Monroe in every single Tweet I did in relation to Jack. Even replies and whatnot.
