Urgh, I hope her train gets stuck in the Severn Tunnel. Being a Cardiff work frau I am not anywhere near, thankfully! Hopefully the bad weather will blow away any lingering honk.

Morning

Why would she have been the cook if this happened before she was forced to learn to cook by the pov?
Why would her partners all be so surprised and amused that she wore shirts and ties if she had been dressing like a boy and running around in binding with socks down her pants since she was a kid? And why does wearing a shirt and tie make someone butch? Surely you'd have to be going from stepford wife to that for someone to even bother commenting on it.
This word placement with this pic will never, ever not be inadvertent comedy gold to me
Yes, real life In the Wild Jack. You certainly are.

I’m self employed and work from home
I can put things like my desk and office chair through the business but not other furniture. But I don’t have a ‘portfolio 
’ career like Jack does. She’d also be able to put through her kitchen equipment and I’d imagine some of the furniture for shoots. My accountant is scrupulously honest and would give me the side eye if I tried to pass more than one laptop/phone/other expensive electronics off as a business expense but she probably puts all of them through. She shouldn’t be able to claim clothes as a business expense but it wouldn’t surprise me if she does.
I would very much like HMRC to take a very thorough look at her finances.
ETA she will also be able to claim some of her rent and utilities as business expenses.
Oh my god this is the first time I’ve seen this and I’m pissing myself. God bless Ruth she is so so polite. All the food looked bleeping dreadful.I remember seeing this live
I'm most disturbed by the chicken dish at the end. That chicken looks grey.
Ruth and Eamonn are masters at the non reaction to slop. No natural reaction of mmmm on their faces at all. Pros.
I don’t entirely agree with you on this. Those marathon places are given on a minimum fundraising basis. The charity gets allocated a certain amount of places and the target usually around the £1500 mark. Jack not running the marathon cos she realises it’s a “bit hard” means the charity loses £1300k ish (they still get what’s donated to date I think) and someone else loses out on a place running the marathon.
It’s just another example of Jack selfishly starting something she can’t finish. Unless she got injured of course and then…fair dos.
ETA …unless I’ve misunderstood and she got a non charity / standard place? That would be different
Seen this on one of the guardian threads last night (Sue Perkins). Didn’t Jack say previously someone was serving prison time for all the horrible things they done, however this says she didn’t actually report him herself.
And I’d love to know to which extent she was involved in the investigation.
And then you have her Grandpa's 'peppercorn social housing', which appears to have been in a state of significant disrepair when it was sold on https://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/11477199.check-it-out-the-hotel-with-no-staff/
Vlad knows and is trying to help a smol pixie
They would have done. Justgiving sends the money directly to the charity and always has done.
I thought if the target wasn’t reached and the person didn’t run, the money would have been refunded to the sponsors, no?
Why does she think people find it so shocking that a 22 (?) year old has a kid that they're lining up to humiliate her about it? And if she grew up poor why would her brother say it was her fault she is poor?

So do we reckon she's actually turning up in Wales, or will she softly, gently bin it off?
She was on the beg for lovely, lovely casho with some “for charidee” from her very, very earliest days of posting. Amazing FORENSIC @colouredlines deep dive here. This was in summer 2012. It’s long, long established.
Jack Monroe #314 Take care on the stairs you pretend to fall down repeatedly
I thought this bit from an article in The Graun about Vardy/Rooney might give Jack slop food for thought. I hope not - as I really want her to pursue it. So much of the tawdry way she carries on would be exposed. 'Never mind the Streisand Effect, launching misguided legal cases will surely...

(except that they clearly were not, as this “feeding the homeless” was a one and done and she describes this business in multiple places elsewhere as her income) and getting the £ paid direct into her PayPal rather than doing properly.

can’t even watch it. Or the bathroom one.No. I once had to pull out of an event, sponsorship is non-refundable. I was worried sick because I'd raised over £1,000 and as soon as I realised that none of it was refundable I offered everyone refunds out of my own pocket. Fortunately nobody took me up on it.
<trainspotter>Yeah, that all sounds like bollocks.</trainspotter>Ah no. She got her arse handed to her on SM after a train chaos. Boot a door off indeed. She couldn't blow her own ears off.
Jack Monroe got a public telling off for swearing at a train company
Blogger left fuming when the official account for c2c trains told her to mind her language - twice.www.google.com
I think this is crediting her too much. Like, she is literally some kind of evil genius if she raises money for charity in 2013 then thinks "oooh, time to play the long game" and just...bides her time before setting up a Patreon four years later? If she had that much foresight, she would probably have been far smarter about it.
Honestly, I just think she's thick and tit with money, and her shitness with money is what has led to this mess. She clearly lives from payday to payday, and has never been able to save. She's an impulsive spender, and nothing stays in her bank account more than a couple of days. She's not a brilliant conwoman, she's just someone who can't control her outgoings and whenever she gets a big bill she hops online to rattle the tip jar.
Joshua Bonehill did time for anti Semitic harassment of Luciana Berger. Jack Monroe got a few tweets possibly from him. While Monroe likes to make herself the main character, she wasn’t. The tweets may not have even been from him

I'm convinced she'll put EVERYTHING through as business expenses, kind of reminds me of how BD talked about fostering, essentially thinking it was an all-expenses paid deal.I’m self employed and work from home

Despite issues with the bootstrap business I think she's well up on all the little tricks and tactics and then probably some more besides, I think a lot of the pixie ADHD can't open brown envelopes or check my emails schtick is a smokescreen to conceal how conniving she really is. SHAN'T pay suppliers if you don't open the invoices.
The (94%) rent and utilities thing is particularly interesting as a layfrau, with narcs there's always a reason why they bang on about something, even if it's just that release of tension from doing something deceitful.
Like why she is so adament about saying she works 90 hour weeks and 'destroys' things in the course of her work, buys two of everything and on and on.
Even stuff like if furniture counts for photography or whatever then why not spend hours endlessly humping the furniture around the bungalow so every piece ends up photographed online
Makes you think.
