So Jack you admit you deliberately targeted an author with documented mental health issues to *checks notes* sell more copies of your mental health cook book?
What, did you want Walliams to make one of your 'recipes'? Cop on to yourself!!!
Jack Monroe #41 No one else gaslights or fights for 'likes' like Jack Monroe. Oops.

The Mirror article and "Jackie's" fridge, it's just bollocks. Jack comes from a comparatively well-off family.
Jonny's grandparents (mother: nurse; father: fire service, honoured at Buckingham Palace) would not sit back and see him without adequate food and clothes - nor would his father and, possibly, who knows, his parents.
I think we need a timeline of Jack's life, year by year, from leaving school up until she appeared in the public eye. There are gaps of years, and it's all very murky. She has been VERY selective about what she has said.

Way back on the magical Wednesday of thread #31 I pointed out to JM that she often focused on details and expressed some sympathy with this behaviour, because my daughter does the same thing and gets all het up when she sees one that doesn't chime with her understanding. I absolutely did not mean for it to become one of her *reasons' for getting all frantic all the time, I meant it was something that she could work on to help her to calm down and recognise when she was in a spiral.
I'm not arrogant enough to think our brief exchange had much impact on her, but she has mentioned it a few times, specifically, since that Wednesday and I'm feeling all itchy to think I've even vaguely given her a get out. I nearly posted about it before, but thought it was a bit self-obsessed of me to see what I said as having an impact. Anyway, if it did, I just wanted to point out that she completely misunderstood what I meant. I didn't mean it to be an excuse/reason, I meant it to be something that it might be helpful to work on.
Yes! Read all of those x
Seconded!
I’ve noticed that too and have also been reminded of the (very kind and sympathetic) message you posted to her on here.
And the amount of benefits she said she is getting doesn't seem right, there would have been either income support, or working tax credit and child tax credit.
Yeah, Jackie!"Jackie"?
I’m hoping someone gets this classic Big Brother Jackie Stallone reference
ETA turns out that loads of people do, you’re all up in my NICHE!!!!!

My son has just finished Artemis Fowl. Apparently they’re better than Harry Potter and Skulduggery Pleasant!
He’s also watched the film on Disney + about 5 times.
Some of the songs from the early series of HH were LITERALLY (see what I did there HH fans?) genius.
HH are great to engage kids, I adored them when I was small too. If any of the cabal whose mini-fraus like them are in the London area I'd really recommend visiting the Clink museum near London Bridge - it's almost like a museum version of horrible histories, I'm 32 and went just before lockdown and loved it but more importantly there were plenty of kids around 8-13ish who were enthralled!
JM #42: Jack doesn't care what you think, that white character is clearly black (when she's pink)
I’m in awe that anyone has time to read other threads. Keeping up with with the latest in MonroeLand isSorry if this has been mentioned before but I went over to the India Knight thread tonight - love the fact that people talk about Grunka-ing on other threads
Just wondering why, above your link does it say Stop Saying It?
To give Jack the benefit of the doubt, the cereal may have come from the food bank (many, many threads ago someone posted about the importance of donating something nice as it could make someone’s day)I agree.
Anyway, onto the mirror article (Jackie?) and some expert comes on to say sb isn't getting any milk. Plus that's expensive looking cereal and baby milk for a 2 year old? If only she knew how to rinse beans back then ehView attachment 175355
Same for the formula (though Aptamil is ~fancy~ formula
). Pure speculation but would food banks give it to a 2 year old in (allegedly) dire poverty, as it provides more calories and nutrients than normal milk? That’s a sad thoughtEverything else looks to be value range - genuinely a bit of poverty or just greater dedication to the cosplay at the start?
This sounds brilliant. Thank you x
They referred to Jack as 'it', which is disgusting, and not the only time I've seen it happen today.
Every now and then people come on these threads and use ‘it’ to refer to JM rather than ‘she’. When people report these posts, mods will either delete or deal with it (as above). Awful slur.
Do you think the
I’m sure it’s been said, but owning a Ford Kia when she doesn’t drive?
