Yep! Your FOI response says they met with her on 28th but she announced that on 26th
ETA now I’m wondering if they only agreed to meet with her to rein her the fuck in a little bit. Or a lot.
Yep! Your FOI response says they met with her on 28th but she announced that on 26thThis was 2 days before the meeting they mentioned in the FOI?
Found it on their website, it's a bit confusing because they use 'vote' and 'nominate' interchangeably, with more votes/nominations getting you on the judges shortlist. Note Jack's category is called "Reader's Award Food Hero" because the readers can nominate anyone, not because the readers gave her the most votes.ETA: I’m going to write and ask them to clarify exactly how it was voted- was it solely reader voted, or was it that there was a shortlist from reader votes that judges then chose.
Food hero
Supported by M&S Food
From entrepreneurs to producers, innovators to activists, here’s your chance to give your food hero the recognition they deserve. This award is open to anyone who has made a difference, whether it’s with a brilliant campaign, product or with work that changes lives. OFM judges will choose the winner from a voted shortlist.
They repeat "reader voted" multiple times when that's not really what they mean.How do I get my customers to vote?
As the awards are reader-voted, it’s important to gain the support of your customers to encourage them to nominate you. The more nominations you receive, the better chance you have of winning. Please see the help me win page for details on how to encourage those votes.
Maybe not but she does have £865 leather legings, £775 tiffany earrings and £180 DM boots on in that photoNobody thinks you have a mansion, a pool, or a jag in the driveway you disingenuous turd.
Is reporting to the Press Complaints Commission a good idea? I'm so angry with the shoddy journalismReally makes you think
And I actually mean that. Every time we see one of these ridiculous articles it makes me question the media even more. Nothing you see written is necessarily got an ounce of truth.
ETA: Jack tricksy with her words, no one said she’s living in a mansion with jaguars on the drive. Prick.
I read this as "getting bonked"Apart from her getting booked
This was always going to be a puff piece, based on what Jack says rather than, you know .... reality. Because the text is just to accompany her receiving an award from the very paper he's writing for. I actually feel a bit bad for the journalist because he was treated to a surprise visit from Jack herself in order to plead her case. Absolute nightmare scenario!That observer article is such a pile of shite. I thought that being a journalist meant... Researching, critical thinking etc.
Even if Killian Fox had just Googled her he would have learned plenty.
It's disappointing, but not surprising, to see that it's all a big media love-in with no one brave enough to step outside the horsey jizz circle
Exactly. The awards seem to be food-world back-slapping anyway, but the sponsor of the awards isn't going to make itself look even less credible by running an article saying one of the winners is a lying grifter.This was always going to be a puff piece, based on what Jack says rather than, you know .... reality.

She claimed she had Burn Out which is a lie and an insult. My husband had Burn Out a decade ago and had to take early retirement and still isn't 100%.View attachment 1654012
OH FUCK OFF, JACK. You’re NOT an “economist” you’re an arrogant deluded fantasist twat.
Also, that’s the first I’ve heard of her 2020 full on breakdown. Or is it? I can’t keep track of them anymore.
You know, even if that’s an old interview, the truth about the ONS has been out publicly for a month now and the dodgy stuff even longer. That only went to press this week, so they had ample opportunity to edit and truncate that piece, and chose not to but to laud her and publish her lies instead. I’m amazed there’s not a link to the tip jar at the end.
All I can see when her dp is small like that isHere too are the tweets where she blatantly takes credit for ONS doing it, and the one the day after the FOI was posted here saying the ONS were doing it anyway but still doubling down and claiming that they’d been in regular contact. Even though ONS say they had just one informal meeting back in Jan. IIRC other blue tickers also credited her for this. Pretty sure Jay Rayner was one.

Asda also didn’t correct her claim to be solely responsible for bringing back the value range and her impact on “millions of people”; while she threw all the supermarkets who DIDN’T want to ‘work’ with her under the bus

As to the OFM award, pretty sure that’s them signaling to her that she’s still their pet pov (what with the big boss giving her the award and all), and that as soon as all this nonsense blows over they’ll have her back

It’s Ipso now. I’m not sure if a complaint under Accuracy grounds here is proceedable. The lack of accuracy is astonishing but I’m not sure if you have to be the subject of the piece and can’t complain as a bystander.Is reporting to the Press Complaints Commission a good idea? I'm so angry with the shoddy journalism
I’m sure the response will be a load of waffly bollox and bullshit, but a complaint to the Guardian/Observer about their egregious lack of fact checking and accuracy is certainly warrantedIs reporting to the Press Complaints Commission a good idea? I'm so angry with the shoddy journalism
Absolutely obsessed with this. Cheers for the profile pic, Graun!I think this is the best visual representation of why I stopped reading the Graun years ago

She must have got her hands on a lot of horses to fill a bottle that big. She also appears to be demonstrating her technique in that there pic.Jack is so versatile, she should also be a soap hero and a slow cooker hero:
