Ah well done digging that up.
I had a dim memory of her mentioning the weekly ONS meetings as an aside in a talk somewhere, but couldn't remember where.
It really is most strange the ONS don't appear to remember it either.
I'm sure Jack will have a very logical explanation for it 🙄

Possibly, now she has legal space fee, she’ll decide to sue the ONS. Crowdfunded naturally

When she pulls this, “Oh no I’m so sick, I have laryngitis, my bones are crumbling” etc etc tit, do you think these event organisers feel a huge amount of anxiety about whether or not she’ll actually show up? If I was relying on a speaker and they were dropping these hints I’d be so stressed assuming they were about to pull a sickie.

Oh no, I don't think so because she is such an honest-to-goodness grifter grafter.

I don't know how these things work - but would an application of FOI to the BBC cover if certain people had been asked to appear on Strictly?

(Actually I'm serious 😂 Quite happy to make the enquiry).

So much chaos yesterday and I had to work! Not fair and a lot of grunking to do now. This caught my eye, so modest but I’m really absolutely okay with that. Bless.

Slight tangent but Simon Harris is another of Jack's big account fans (47k followers so not squiggled). Thought I read on here he's also a bit of a grifter. He set up the Southend News satirical site and runs a fair few FB groups (like the angry people in newspapers one). Anyway here he is, true to form, blowing smoke up Jack's arse.

There's no harm in asking, but they might cite commercial interests or something...I dunno.

Never has my username been more apt 😨 I'm not well enough to be seeing her catflap or deliciously squishy body. Expect to hear from my pro bono lawyer you thirsty creeper.

I don't think anyone needs to request a nefarious FOI to confirm what a mendacious porker the Strictly invite was, pal.

Jack, you can't cook and claim you can feed a family for £20 a week.

What are food tech lessons like these days? Mine (year 7-9) were making cookies, sandwiches and salads. GCSE was entirely desserts. I obviously don't love the "poor people just don't know how to cook" narrative but if parents don't have the time/money then it would be helpful for kids to learn to make actual meals in school.

Two of my kids are in specialist provision and seem to do pretty decent food tech lessons. The others, in mainstream ed, don't. Not any more, anyway. Back in ye olden days I only remember making a couple of proper meals (tomato soup and cheese, onion and potato pie- which is awesome, actually) and a christmas yule log, but better than nothing, I suppose? And it's absolutely knowledge that people lack, a lot of the time- especially re: portion sizes. A couple of my friends were notorious for serving massive adult portions to their small kids and wondering why said small kids rapidly grew in an outwards direction.

Carrying over @Mallerenga 's point from the previous thread:
I personally think she just mistyped "smrat priec rcie" on the Asda website search bar when checking prices, obviously didn't find it and she let her imagination run wild.

It was actually a SmartPrice/Smart Price confusion. I ran both search terms through the Asda search bar at the time and the one Jack tweeted as a screenie didn't work, and therefore returned no products, but the correctly-styled version did, and the range had not disappeared after all.
