Jack should stay silent and she should be taking steps to make amends and address the pateron stuff. Not because she thinks it is the right thing to do, but because she needs to salvage what remains of her career.She should stay silent as she runs the risk of making things far worse. But this is Jack. She's impulsive, especially when in a rage, and she's also very brazen nowadays and clearly feels untouchable. She may look to new tactics to try and shut down talk about her.
They're ok, a lot of Americans discovering Jack for the first time. A couple of folk sticking up for her because she took down Hopkins. I've clipped a few of the better comments below.
I didn't realise any grandparents were from Wales? Bit concerning if they have got that wrong from the start in the description.Hello Fraus, delurking to share this - my favourite podcast is doing a 45 minute episode on Jack! It's for subscribers but will listen tomorrow and let you know what they say.
Yes, both have been cancelled for allegedly being bigots. They have lost work and been genuinely harassed and ostracised for their written work. Which seems to consist of "hold on a second, is this really the best approach".They question some aspects of trans ideology (eg the need for teens to have surgery), which is enough to get them labelled genocidal TERFS, but they’re actually very respectful of trans identity in my opinion.
Also yeah Katie is actually a lesbian unlike Jack.
They’re being flippant, I thinkI didn't realise any grandparents were from Wales? Bit concerning if they have got that wrong from the start in the description.
Jesse has been subject to the worst kind of threats you can imagine (really…he has posted screengrabs ) for investigations that question whether teenagers should always be encouraged to transition through hormones and surgery. I would say he is pretty moderate on trans issues but he’s been absolutely viciously targeted.Yes, both have been cancelled for allegedly being bigots.

I honestly hope that the canal will bring their capacity for critical evaluation to this. Their reputation is as ill-deserved as Jack's is warranted.
I don't think it was anything specific. She's probably just used to having expensive stuff that it's the norm.to her, and she doesn't understand how it looks to 'normal' people. People who can only afford Primark and have to wear it till it falls apart. Who have to superglue their only pair of shoes together. People who actually have to pawn their jewellry to feed their kids then can't afford to redeem it.What exactly do we think happened to make her go from unashamedly showing off her impressive array of material possessions to the creative writing of HH2? It was quite the change of direction.
Oh my god, we actually have some work for the worklog. (Fun fact, so far this month, Jack hasn't done the equivalent of one week's worth of full time hours. Not surprising, but Jesus christ)Urgent alert Scottish fraus ! Jackanory is on BBC radio Scotland at 9am. I'm not able to listen
I will be in the car at that point so I will tune in and report back once in the office. (Lazy bastard start today after a stupid early one yesterday)Urgent alert Scottish fraus ! Jackanory is on BBC radio Scotland at 9am. I'm not able to listen
Katie had stickers posted all over her cityJesse has been subject to the worst kind of threats you can imagine (really…he has posted screengrabs ) for investigations that question whether teenagers should always be encouraged to transition through hormones and surgery.

He and Katie are a bit irreverent but really not bigoted.
Yeh. This. They are both pretty leftie people who've written about detrans kids and sounded some cautionary notes around early transition, based on a lot of research. For that they were ostracised and attacked online and in real life. I've listened to (I think) every episode of BARpod and they are 100% not transphobic in any real sense of that word. They often irritate GC Twitter as much as trans Twitter. I really think they are good people.Yes, both have been cancelled for allegedly being bigots.
