Probably not permitted here, so pls delete if necessary, but looking at LT, it seems to me that the two have a lot more in common than just their stories of poverty. Like a lot of contradictions and stuff not ringing true. Is LT Jack's mentor/ role model in ALL ways, possibly?She was brownnosing an American named Linda Tirado at the time, copying her. Tirado wrote a well-regarded piece about how poverty affects teeth.

Both have 'Bootstrap' in their book titles; both come from middle-class backgrounds and have been criticised for producing poverty porn; both have monetised their situation - so many similarities.
