My favourite ever Twitter beef was Luke Haines (ex-90s band The Auteurs) vs. Giles Coren. Ended with Coren threatening to beat him up, even though he’d fold like a deckchair at the prospect of confrontation IRL. An absolute cretin who should never have been allowed anywhere near social media. A bit like our Jackie.

Nut update-
the remaining nut tasted bad, and a bit stale. Kind of sour. My guess would be that they go rancid? Because of all the oil.

We've all been there.
Yep. She uses every card imaginable to get out of everything and anything:
ADHD,
Mental health problems
Alcoholism
Physical disability (Having to walk with a stick? Unable to climb stairs? Unable to lift her arms to wash her hair? etc, etc, etc, ...
3rd generation immigrant discrimination ...
It'll be used, believe me. Among many more I can't remember ...Oh! Trans, lesbian.
Homeless
Foodbank user
Vegan (all forgotten about) vegetarian (all forgotten about ...)
Any other I haven't mentioned, anyone?
Has Jack bought one letter of an encyclopaedia set? Joey in Friends moment.
Not surprised she’s made this about her, and expect that there’s more to come.

Thank you dear tenderstem, that’s what I remembered.
Get this kind of stuff under the nose of an investigative snooper. I bet there are more examples of this out there which begs the question of why she is being invited back.
J’adore Luke Haines. Very funny, ascerbic man.
Sex worker
Why is my breakfast like Jack's kitchen rug?
They both need a good oeuvre-ring.

First attempt, hope I picked the right version of Jack for you xxx

Cook.
This is why I think she gets away with a lot - her core middle class audience is full of people doing exactly what she’s doing to a lesser extent (and maybe minus financial grift). People telling their own exaggerated tales about Viv and others or who frequently recall that one month they ate nothing but beans for dramatic effect won’t want to call someone else out for it in case it comes back on them. So Jack and others like her get away with it.
ETA: and the one thing I can imagine she has been forensic on is getting dirt on stuff like this, and that’s what she’s got over people to keep them quiet. Nobody will want to say something about her if she fires back “X story isn’t true either, is it?”.

The Viv invite is such a bollock. There may have been a general call to arms sent round to “activists” but why to Jack in particular? She’s always keen to remind everyone that GETTING PEOPLE FED is her thing and she hasn’t got time for anything else.
Also Jack, please start using a dictionary. You make yourself look stupid on the reg trying to use big, clever sounding words without knowing what they mean and at your age you really ought to have outgrown that.

I suspect the dirty look of her hands and legs in so many of her own photos is because she loves her edgy tattoos so much that she filters to make them stand out and look darker, with the result that all her skin looks grubby. Just speculation m’lud.
He is one of my last favourite people in the public eye. Yet I like his sister. How are they so different.
I'm sure the University of Kent is a fine institution but erm... well, it's not one that you usually see next to "Eton College" is it? It doesn't inspire confidence in his abilities if he's one of the few to fail to swing an Oxbridge place after going to the poshest school in the country, does it? They've tended to just shoo that lot in automatically unless they're very, very, very unimpressive.

Would love a Giles x Jack chaos in which they both lose somehow - two massive egos.
Whatever exposé this man's gonna do will add to the dissenting voices pointing out shes not and never was poor or the saviour of the poor. These little ripples will all add up to a big wave at some point. I dont even think he'll need receipts as such because its just easily obtainable facts that are a matter of public record. She's of a comfortably middle class background not working class, she's had family support all along, she lives in an expensive rental, she has a regular income from Patreon, she crowdfunded money for legal action that didn't happen that shes kept, the histrionics of HH2 are entirely contradictory with the calibre her personal possessions. Its about these things for me and they're easily verifiable. The Georgia Church supper type gaffes, paddies and crappy food are entertaining but its all gravy.
