Jack Monroe #41 No one else gaslights or fights for 'likes' like Jack Monroe. Oops.

[Cookiecookie]

Does that sound even plausible?

Not at all.

I've found the Edwina Currie clip online!!! Here's the link:

And the Edwina/Jack bit is around the 32:00 mark. I love it!!!

 

[Marmalade Atkins]

Do you think she’s done it on purpose so when nobody offers her work again she can say she was ‘SILENCED FOR TELLING THE TRUTH! PUNISHED FOR HER PRINCIPLES BUT SOME THINGS ARE MORE IMPORTANT!!!’

I had the same thought.

I've found the Edwina Currie clip online!!! There isn't a link - but go on dailymotion.com and in the search box, type "big benefits row live". The whole show is there. And the Edwina/Jack bit is around the 32:00 mark. I love it!!!

I love you

Jack, you may have quoted it word for word but you’ve taken some out of context!

If I say “I”m really sorry someone said you’re a twit”
And you tweet that I said ”You’re a twit”
It’s not quite what was said, even if it is technically the correct words.

I now found the link. So I edited my first post. Here it is:

I think everyone who works a job handling cash has felt this way? Especially as things has continually gone more and more cashless since what, the 80s? I've never even owned £50 note... does that make me Oliver Twist?

Yes, absolutely. Set up a patreon ASAP

LOL

Clearly hasn't heard of tweetdelete - gosh, the JM stans are sooo precious! /s

I imagine the staff at HarperCollins are reading her tweets like:

I genuinely think she believes they might somehow give her a book deal, when in reality this is like he JO saga, no one at ch 4 or HC would ever work with her now

I don’t think Piers likes DW, he might come down on the side of Monroe.

I hate piers but I doubt he would, he’s too anti “political correctness “ to support her imo

Hi all, hope you're all good! I took a bit of time off here over the weekend, and now seem to have a bit of Grunking to do... don't know if I'll ever catch up

This is infuriating. I am also technically a ‘single parent’ in the same way Jack is, which is that her dad is still around, we have a good relationship and she stays at his every other weekend. I’d actually argue that parents like me and Jack are in very fortunate positions, more so than a lot of ‘nuclear families’ as we are actually getting regular breaks!

The thing is, she has repeatedly said that she has “no childcare” (only to contradict herself). She manipulates people into thinking she’s a lone parent taking care of her kid 24/7, when it seems like he goes to his dad’s often and for days / about a week at a time

She is in a very fortunate position, and while she reaps the benefits* of getting some alone time, she can’t stand the fact that she’s not hard done by in this aspect. So she lies

*benefits include being able to tweet all day & night and taking sexy sideboard selfies without a 10 year old wittering on about Harry Potter in your ear

View attachment 174859Back to little miss nice. How patronising.

With the amount she spends on twitter/ tattle I really hope SB is either super motivated to learn himself or the dad is homeschooling a bit

Mack is now a snowflake causing an avalanche

Meanwhile I made this cake. It's the Claudia Roden orange almond Middle Eastern Cake. The loaf in the background is my work, too. Slow cooker bread is great! Jack is not great!

I dined with two close girlfriends
We're all as different as can be, and fiercely close. We laughed so hard. I wish you all a good proper laugh today, if you can. No point wishing same for drama llama, I guess, so you all have her fun, please

This is very true. Apparently, during police interviews, people who are later found guilty give a great amount of detail around their alibi or whatever, whereas innocent people give very little detail, but add more when prompted (as it prompts their memory). Liars have their story fully fleshed out at the beginning and are unable to add more detail later on. (M'lud, this information is based on one of the 1000s of true crime podcasts I listen to. I cannot remember which one).

Oh yes. In law, call those people the pink hat witnesses. "I recall it specifically as I had selected my pink hat that day and thought, gosh I look nice in my pink hat and as I was wearing that pink hat, the manager said to me..." LOL I have an odd brain that actually does work a bit like that, so I dread ever needing to make a witness statement as no one will believe me

“I failed my grammar school, I got four GCSEs”

I wonder who she blames for that?

 

[MrsA99]

Quick question.. Is she in a relationship? Don't know much about her, but I thought I read she was living with an executive who works with Channel 4? One of her latest tweets implies she's a single parent?

SHE LEFT.

(sorry, without context this kinda seems rude - it's Jack's stock response for anybody daring to bring her ex (wife) Louisa up in conversation)

Us, probably.

Jack's new catchphrase appears to be "have a lovely day"
