But until very recently she was a Ltd companyAgreed.
Someone in Jack's position would normally use a limited company - it makes it much easier to separate personal finances from the business. The downside is that you've got to publish annual accounts (albeit just a balance sheet unless you have a turnover above £5m), and you have to be much more careful about writing off expenses against tax.
Instead, Jack's a sole trader - this is likely more tax-efficient, but also means that you're personally liable for any debts you rack up. Her accounts are going to be an absolute nightmare... she'll need to be keeping meticulous records in order to disambiguate income from gifts from donations from fundraising - and from all we know about her, I can't really see Jack managing to do that.
How the hell is she managing to avoid a VAT audit at the very least?!

Yeah but Jack’s menus include hours and hours of forensic research. And prunes. Who is this imposter with their normal food with texture? Where’s the slop?Much more realistic Asda shop for a family (although low on milk - we get through 3 or 4 4 pinters a week) https://tattle.life/threads/19920/
And after it’s gone presumably the handle becomes available?
I notice this journalist has managed to buy a Mumsnet chicken. One £3 chicken has made a roast plus curry the next day for a family. Perhaps my lot are just greedy shits but there’s nothing but a carcass in our house after Sunday lunch.
Isn't the Tom Jones gif from Mars Attacks? 
Just popping by to say that this thread's title is MY FAVOURITE, EVER 
I honestly feel a bit faint. A house of 6 mostly-kinda-hoarders here and we can't begin to even hold a birthday cake candle to her cluttering, LET ALONE her spending. How can she possibly justify this, even to herself?!!SANCTIMONIUS COOL GIRLS FORENSIC BUNGALOW STOCKTAKE KLAXXON

Anything spenny is fair game, but I'll add whatever fraus want.
My own benchmark is discretionary or 'non-essential' spend in the context of someone who claims to not be able to afford shower gel or 6p for butter instead of lard etc.
Jack moves things around constantly so try to avoid double counting.
Instagram is a literal and figurative gold mine (see TBC spoiler).
If I like your stocktake post it means I've seen it and will include in the next update.
Have fun.

Is Jack Monroe a Liar? Bootstrap Cook Faces Scrutiny | Sunday Woman
archived 29 Sep 2022 18:05:14 UTCarchive.ph
Also did an archive for twitter search 'jack monroe', really highlights the astroturfing going on right now
They seem to have learned about ‘wordage’ from Jack herself though. She’s “known” for campaigning on pov stuff (so just “known” for that, not necessarily actually doing anything to effect change) and “has worked particularly closely with issues involving the cost of living crisis” (so not directly ON them or doing anything ABOUT them, just “closely with issues involving” it)
Note that it carefully doesn’t say anything tangible she’s actually done
Almost as if you had to write your own Pink Awards blurb, or she did at least. Makes you think.
Also this from an entity nominating her for an award. Nominating her for an award when they can’t say or point to one single tangible thing she’s done.
Mr Whippy hair has me DEAD
Is now an appropriate time for me to admit I cannot stand the Tom Jones gif and would be happy if I never saw it again?

It's ridiculous. They always collected data per percentile income so what she claimed was ignored was a lie. Christmate clearly told her this with the data, but no she knew better due to an anecdote.Just been reading the updated "official" Wiki.
I know WE already know it was nothing to do with her, but honestly, her fans only need to look at that page to see that she lied about making the ONS change their procedures! Are they all *thick? (Don't need answers on a postcard!) The thing she is most good at is her careful choice of words (apart from when she uses the wrong ones that she doesn't understand in the first place).
"In January 2022, Monroe complained that food prices were rising faster than the official inflation rate, which hit poor people hardest.[42] The Office for National Statistics agreed that one inflation rate did not reflect everybody's experience, and noted that they were already working since 2021 to revise the Consumer Price Index, to more accurately measure changes in consumer prices.[43][44] Monroe stated, "Delighted to be able to tell you that the ONS have just announced that they are going to be changing the way they collect and report on the cost of food prices and inflation to take into consideration a wider range of income levels and household circumstances."[45] Monroe announced plans to launch a new price index, called the Vimes Boots Index (VBI), highlighting the greater cost of poverty.[46]"
BIB - Just for when you're next here, catching up, Jack Monroe scammer! Hi Jack!How's your hiatus going?
*Inclined to believe it's gullible in a lot of cases, but definitely thick in many others! #jackmonroesflyingmonkeys
Because of her they went to extra effort to release more data and track value items. All to just show it was unnecessary and her point was void.
The only thing she achieved was wasting public money. Slow
,,Please has a clever Frau the time to compose a pic of Jack's Mr Whippy face and hair atop a cornet? Thank (space) you
Oh I don't know.The only thing she achieved was wasting public money. Slow
She convinced the easily convinced that she's good at easily convincing the easily convinced.
The first 3 letters of convince is con, conning the easily convinced is the first step to conning the easily conned.
The house we bought was previously owned by a semi-hoarder. We filled four 6cy skips of their
worthless junk. Send priceless antique-os.
I was bored so I twitter searched Three Tin Tender and found a couple of squigs who posted their results over the past few years. Horrifyingly they all look drastically different (but all dire).
@Geetbo, your heroic efforts were noted.
This one was my favourite, posted in 2019.
Reader, squig never did report back on what it tasted like.

I think it was this. Space man was asking if he could share it with the CEO (what?).
Jack eventually opened the box and allegedly sent space man photos which he never received.
10th September.
He seemed a bit... demanding.
God knows what first squig has made but its got chunks of vegetables and beans in it, so isn't TTT.
