LOL at the Greenbelt organizers thinking Jack was hard to get hold of because she was busy fighting Katie Hopkins in court. Little did they realize that she's disorganized and thoughtless *all the time*.
The first bit about what a nightmare she was to plan for/with thoughI keep looking at this Greenbelt thing and there's just so much. Jack is a prophet and says 'peace, pray peace for me'. Whut?

Jack Monroe at Greenbelt 2017 - Greenbelt
This year, we were thrilled to welcome Jack Monroe to Greenbelt. Jack falls into the you-need-to-ask-four-or-five-years-in-a-row category of festival contributor. Along with the likes of Billy Bragg. But our hope is that now that Jack has said yes once, and been with us, then it might not take...www.greenbelt.org.uk
I wonder if she's even seen this:My last Greenbelt mither, I promise.
JM: 'I was going to sing a song but I've bottled it. I don't know why I mentioned that!'
Audience: 'Aww'
JM: 'Oh OK then if you insist'
You absolute charlatan Jack, you played them like a fiddle.
But oh, the torture of that song! 'I should have started in a different key'. Hahahahaha my cringe created its own field of gravity.
It looks like John Merrick, god rest that poor man’s soul.
Christ the whole article makes me want to hurl.The first bit about what a nightmare she was to plan for/with though![]()
BUT YOU HAD A FAMILY JACK!!! I do not believe for one single second that your parents never visited their Grandchild in your freezing, bare, flat. I do not believe for one second that you didn't spend your Christmases with your parents. I do not believe for one second that you managed to hide yourself and your child away during the festive period without somebody noticing the lack of tree, gifts and food. I do not believe you, Jack. Why on earth no journalist has never interviewed her parents is beyond me.Here it is. In the comments for this article. She wades into them A LOT.

I wonder if Jack’s been sharing her sideboards with Peter who wrote this.One of the questioners, with a voice on the verge of cracking, explained how she suffered with chronic agoraphobia and that this was the first time she’d ventured into the Glade Big Top as she couldn’t cope with its size and the numbers of people in it. But she wanted to come and thank Jack for writing so openly and honestly about transitioning and how this vulnerability and candour had been such a help to her. “Ever since I read your stuff, Jack, on your transition journey, I’ve wanted to hug you,” said the faltering voice. With that, Jack was leaping down from the Glade stage and galloping along the pit barrier. Clambering up onto the steel divide, Jack reached over and the two embraced for minutes while the tent erupted in tears and applause.
Ooo bill Bailey. Fav !As if by magic the current Mr Django is watching TV and the glorious Kathy Burke is on!

Genuinely:Well I tell you Fraus that’s the last time I hang out at Waitrose holding a water melon waiting for Jennynumnums ….
There's a time limit on being able to administer parvolex as well.Absolutely. I can speak from my own experience though and being someone who (at the time) was a very similar body shape/size to Jack, I can confirm (TW) that fewer paracetamol than that results in many hours of IV Parvolex. And that’s without the additional sleeping tablets, heart meds and vodka she allegedly consumed.
Same, tenderstem. I cannot, even before it was Tom Waits, then it was cannot, will not, (Gary Wilmot). Which reminds me: it’s the same with her ‘poetry’, my eyes skitter around the page in disbelief and will not be reined in to focus. Big nope. Her atrocities to the arts need to stay in the abstract for reasons of sanity.I think its time now to confess this and I'm totally ashamed to admit this to you all, but I have never listened to Jack singing.
I can't do it, I just can't. Every time I go to click on it I get a real visceral reaction akin to someone asking me to shove my face in a pile of shite. (Or a Jack slop recipe). I'm sorry canal, I feel like I'm letting you all down
My eternal gratitude goes to every one of you who have taken one for the team and I appreciate your amazingly forensic description of the horror.![]()
Evidently you’ve never been to Northern Ireland….I don't think political beliefs are hereditary?
