Jack Monroe #394 Stickler for facts and fair reporting

[fauxpoor]

I would have to say today is thee most glorious. She mithered away into theTwitter hinterlands after her Georgian adventure, but today she has keep coming back with more and more ridiculous nonsense.

Today has seen;

* Royalist Jack
* Redundancy is not that bad Jack
* Sick Jack (so smol and sickly)
* Train Jack
* Throw Big Dave under the bus Jack
* Pretend communist Jack
* Stop discussing my secret parents Jack
* Here’s all my parents and their tenants secrets Jack
* Make Up Jack
* Lumberjack Jack

it’s been a lot and it’s only 8pm

*screaming ovaries Jack <shudders>

I just found this juxtaposition of twitter posts deliciously ironic. There's no room for nuance over David Cameron but plenty for Marxist leninist landlords who worship the royals.

The whole thing about her dad I find hilarious. Like fuck does St Big Dave of the Vulnerable Tenants sit by the phone waiting for his hour long call with a tenant every bloody day!

Haven't they just been on holiday too? How would that work then?

 

[Whaa?]

Did I miss something or did she sidestep dunking on corporate greed (specifically when it was mentioned by the other person they had on, I was busy making v. imp comment about Jacks jumper at the time).

Noticed she managed to plug her book though, no, not that one, the one she hasn't finished yet.

 

[ContentCrunch]

Popping my head back up from the grunk to ask if any more nightmeat has been had?

( I’m still at the concert bit )

Got myself some nice reduced belly pork… no burgers though. Cheeky as you were!

Working day for me and thought I'd have a quick catch up eating lunch.

I was not expecting that hotel room picture.

Her poor son. At 12 the other kids can be like bloody sharks. Having the wrong trainers can be a cause for humiliation. I really hope that picture isn't doing the rounds at his school this morning (though I suspect it is)

As for the GMB interview, putting her in a discussion with an actual doctor reminds me of those BBC interviews from a couple of years back when they had that idea that to be fair, they needed to have 2 guests one from each side of an argument to discuss any issue, even if the consensus was almost entirely on one side. . So you'd get, for example, a climate change scientist with 2 phd's who'd spent their working life taking samples from icebergs, being interviewed alongside a bloke who worked in a newsagent and didn't believe in climate change because he thought the warming was just the breath of puppies or something.

The photo wasn't *that* bad and I do feel it's a bit much to pass every single thing through the lens of how would her 12 year old 's friends find it. I agree she needs to be somewhat mindful re the talk of harming herself and the types of threats she supposedly receives, but not to post a pic in case her son and his friends find it embarrassing seems excessive.

Wonder if her agent has given her any "quiet, off the record guidance?".

 

[BurgerLaBill]

All aboard the Grift Bus...shit is going to get wild soon.

 

[Captainmouse]

I think dear @Geetbo & @MancBee will need another holiday when they see all this.

If @MancBee sees the stuffing, it could be his aneurysm!

Canal, I am so far behind (hello from the past, hooting and fizzing!) and I don't know how to quote from closed threads.
But this one from @Menopausal Stormtrooper came out to the tune of Hand in Pocket by Alanis Morrisette.
Quite a fitting title. Makes you think.

I'm poor (but on patreon),
I am a cook (but rinsed hoops)
I'm a lesbian ( but burgers...baby)
And what it all boils down to
Is that everything is just fine, fine, fine,
Cause I've got one hand in your pocket
And the other one is on twitter all the time

Actual footage of Jack :

 

[Captainmouse]

Wow I’ve been really busy this morning and this is the time she lets dumb Jack out of the box!
I love it most when she talks about things she has fuck all knowledge of and then it runs away from her.

Beautiful…

Surely that is a daily occurrence, she knows burger all about most things

 

[jenny2603]

I‘d love to see estimates of the cost of appeasing this whiny waste of time just to avoid crappy headlines and a pile on of flying monkeys.
She isn’t just a boring irrelevance, she’s actually an active nuisance stopping real work being done rather than talked about. All because she loves the sound of her own nasal whine and can’t cope with deep feelings of inadequacy.
An honest day’s work would help with that Jack. You’re a pain in the arse making things worse in every conceivable way.

I doubt the shitting dog has been near the government bar anything she's been publicly invited to which this year would be be the committee she wasted a place at and a Gingerbread event at the parliament.

 

[Just Lou]

Ok seriously it's time for a family intervention now right? Sharing that level of personal and sensitive detail in tweets would be immediate dismissal for most people, she's got no clue about these things and is becoming (sorry not sorry) an increasingly loose cannon.

You'd think so...

 

[Helena Handbasket]

Sorry, I’ll stop posting these now. … or soon.

Never stop

 

[MooBelle]

Half the world has Morton's Toe. It just means the toe next to your big toe is longer. I also have a pinky toe that curls and tucks under, so does one of my brothers.
You ain't special, Jack so keep your fugly trotters out of sight, thank you.

My toes do that! Do I have to chop my toes off now?

 

[AndrewsDaddy]

I don't remember a dozen bags of cheap crisps being n the £20 shop.

The burger wasn’t in the shop either. Burgers are free.

 

[upsidedown33]

Also why is this the debate she keeps showing up for? (I know why of course, it pays). But out of all her priorities, this policy change should not be high on the list. She really will just show up for the pay and to say the inevitable lines…

 

[Whaa?]

On GMB maybe Superdrug is giving her another go round. Hope the presenters are clued up to guide her through whatever message she is supposed to be giving. If so I am sure Jack has been schooled not to mention shampoo and washing machines.
When Jack mentioned she was collecting CEO's numbers all I could think of was that she would be fishing for collabs. Some more entertainment value there at least. Big Good Things are coming. This would have to involve her.

 

[SarcasticEllis]

Just popped in to say that the gloves are well and truly outta the puddles now!

Fookin ell!!

 

[Orphan_Black]

“Beat it Monroe, Joan Armatrading’s here”

When Ben mentioned great singing I was hoping Jack was about to break into a duet with Russell Watson, a bit of faux Celine Dion to honour The Queen.

 

[Ooointitot]

Jack Monroe thinks blinking counts as work.

If she thinks blinking is work, she’s blinking wrong
