Omg if you don’t even have a mortgage on your extra properties and you can’t make it work the only conclusion must be you are an actual dumb dumb?
I read it to mean that he's ok because he doesn't have a mortgage, but doesn't want an "extra layer of bureaucracy" with a fee that will just get passed on to tenants by less scrupulous landlords than he.

A weird combo of virtue signalling (I only charge affordable rents) and boasting (I don't have a debt to service) whilst also not wanting to have any barriers to income....sounds familiar?

Anyway as a Frau with sketchy mental health and a propensity to have a breakdown every couple of years (🔺), I do actually think it’s the potatoes that triggered our Jackie to have a breakdown. Most of mine have been caused by crappy life events and not taking my meds, but it’s been a small event that’s triggered them, like the time it seemed like my breakdown was caused by the boiler breaking, but really it was because my life had gone to tit, this was just the straw that broke the camels back so to say.

Anyway I half feel sorry for Jack and I do hope she is getting the help she needs but then I realise she’s just a up twit who couldn’t cook a potato in a bonfire. Also quite frankly while I would eat her mums roasties, if my mum served those up I’d probably have a breakdown too.

He may have bought more through mortgages but honestly who knows. Whichever way you look at it, it's not great.
Woah! Dave talks to a poor at 5pm everyday. He's a caring landlord. The family obviously struggle, Jack's disabled mum can't even afford to keep the oven on long enough to cook a decent roast potato. Can we have some compassion for the landlords here?

Try "doubts the veracity of the landlording".
This is why intergenerational wealth is hilarious, you’ve got someone with a net worth of at least a mil (based purely off of what is documentable online, it’s likely much more) doing think pieces on paying out £140 a year? duck offfff!

Is her Dad seriously witching about £11 a MONTH when he’s got those properties outright?? He was corrected to £700 for 5 years so he clearly thought it was per year at first which would be an extra £58 but still…what a tightarse!!!

Blessed are the landlords, for they will be called children of God 🥰

“I keep my rents affordable by not having to service bank debt”

I keep the books balanced purely through inheriting part of an empire from my multimillionaire wealthy parents, try it peasants x

Fortunately she's back posting breakfast muffins on Instagram, so the breakdown didn't last long. She'll wait until enough blue tickers say nice things about her on twitter and call for the heads of her critics before she goes back to that haunted bird app.

“…but thank you for your concern.” Now where have we heard this passive aggressive turn of phrase before 🤔

I'm off to Sainsbury's head office today (🔺) I shall be on the look out for smol pixies softly, gently meeting with the CEO behind the scenes to improve their workers' conditions.
Sainsburys haven't touched her since the Jack Monroe - David Cameron - dead child incident....



By pure coincidence, I also might be meeting with the Essa brothers in a few weeks, the owners of Asda, at a social event through work....
Having worked with them many years ago when they had a single garage forecourt in Blackburn, we might have a LOT to catch up on!

Hmmm. My Asda rewards coupon didn’t work this morning. Pity I can’t summon Jack on Twitter to sort it for me. #not :)

I'm surprised none of the potato squigs have connected the potato insults to the Irish potato famine yet. In Ireland, their potatoes DIED and the Irish people LEFT on boats. How dare you insult the well-known Irish blogger Jack Monroe's potatoes when her ancestors STARVED due to lack of those very same potatoes?! Do you want Southend to have a FAMINE? *squigs start humming The Fields of Athenry at increasing volume*
[/QUOTE]

HAHAHA!

"By a lonely Southend wall, I heard a young Jack calling,
Thomas, you've taken my spuds away.
For I stole the Patreon coin
So that I might seem forlorn
Now a Twitter mob is waiting for me to repay.....

Low lie the lies of Macenry... "
