What is the difference between influencer rates and campaigner rates in a brand deal? I thought the industry standard was about 100quid a post per 10000 followers, so a 500k following should mean a sponsored post is quite lucrative, about 5k a post. A selfie showing you on the way to the store, a haul brought back..what is the going rate for that? Apropos of nothing.

I thought I was over being annoyed with her. Nope.

The people she's "saving £100 a week" on food certainly ain't the low income ones. Fucks sake.

She makes pastry by melting the butter/fat in the microwave then stirring it into flour.
Reading that made me realise she was a crap cook with no knowledge of food or cooking techniques.

Evening Canal, what times these last few days have seen. I’ve been following along and will add my two pennorth worth.
The Pink News award, anyone and I mean everyone except Jack would have basically retweeted and said, vote for Kyiv Pride. But no, not Jack.
That FOI response is most excellent.
I kind of want to buy Jack’s book so I can leave an absolute scathing ‘verified purchase’ review.
I have ordered a new T-shirt for court, it’s just got Nefarious PYG on it. Might change my name via deed poll.
As you were Ninnies. I’m off for a bucket of gin and some pickled onion crisps.
Jack remains an absolute clown shoe.

The chefs are wrong then. The secret to good pastry isnt chilled butter and cold implements and it really doesnt matter if the butter melts and wont give you gluey stodgy weirdness instead of pastry... I shall adapt my shortcrust and flaky recipes immediately.

Verrrrrrry behind thanks to whoever pointed
"I find that flavour becomes such an important part of making...genuinely a banging dish"

Hmm.

ETA why does she always sound like she's about to cry?

Even though he wrote a “Save With Jamie” book a whole year before hers came out WHICH SHE OWNS A COPY OF.

As a matter of interest how does ML make his money.? I’m genuinely curious what his business model is compared to jackaroo’s griftathon

Ad revenue from his website I’d imagine it gets almost as much traffic as Jacks threads here

I thought she literally couldn’t lie?

"Lewis founded the website MoneySavingExpert.com. He sold the website in 2012 to the Moneysupermarket.com group for up to £87 million."

So there isn't an Essex Celebrity Squad?
Well fuck me.
Jack must've {gulp} lied?

(She could pretend they are under secret deep cover - but hang on that wouldn't work as she spoke about them )
I hope the extra information was passed on....

Martin Lewis sold MSE for over £80m. He’s not short of a bob or two and I think genuinely still wants to help people.

That's exactly how the British legal system works, dear squig. Anyone who hates Jack will end up before the beak and they won't be allowed to speak.
The Law is on Her side.

While looking for something else this popped up - Jack's pitch to Superdrug. I'd forgotten she asked people to send in their own stories around period poverty. Putting aside her woeful methods of storing data (I have a horrible feeling she probably printed things out for a lever arch folder), what a colossal wasted opportunity. People wrote to her with personal information to just throw it all away. Then blamed her losing the job on trolls.
Pathetic.
