Stick it behind a spoiler pal. I can't deal with that and a hangover
Jack was seemingly emboldened by the slam dunk libel case when Katie Hopkins mistook her for Laurie Penny. It was one of the clearest examples of libel you’re likely to see, but very unusual for that reason.
Most libel cases are much more difficult and in a grey area. For example, someone who tweeted that Jack was a “grifter” might upset Jack and various defenders would ride in to say how awful said person was because Jack does so much for others etc etc. However, the tweeter would probably have a reasonable defence for the tweet, given Jack herself is on record in the recent Guardian interview saying she squandered money given to her on sideboards she didn’t need, and made spending decisions whilst drunk.

Dyed-in-the-wool leftie, LibDem voter all my life (what’s the bleeping point, I know), volunteer, charity donator, sponsor… but I never thought it would take this absolute Southend spanner to make me bat for the Tory Vice-Chairman and an editor of the Daily Express.
Much activism, very campaigning, many help.
bleeping idiot.

As if I would be an untruthful ninny
I don’t even drink and I’m equally baffled.
Of all the myriad, achingly malicious ways with which the world has endlessly victimised and tormented Jack, I don’t think a missing Oxford comma and an entirely unearned accusation of being a chef was on anyone‘s bingo card as the cruel and unusual punishment that would provoke her into coming out swinging.
I have learned that the world can always surprise me, though
I‘m still fixed on the toilet humour this morning, and the phrase “did she tit the bed” keeps popping in to my head, can’t think why…
since when is being calked wealthy or a celebrity libellous anyway?!
Hotes, dearest, I think you’re being awfully mean to poor toothachey Jack. Details only matter when it comes to missing commas.
Probably only when your income sources depend on people still believing you're struggling......
Ah we've not had toothache in a while have we?
Not got time for this now Jack, need to go to the gym to bench press the Queen. Slow your roll please
Will she object equally as vociferously to the implication she is a travel agent as she appears to being called a chef?
I didn't think I could have another aneurysm, but late-check-out-sing Jack is yet another.
I've cut it fine many a time with getting out of hotel rooms, and the final five minutes have always been me scuttling about like a headless ninny (not a death threat) flinging stuff into cases and sweating, absolutely mortified at the thought I could potentially inconvenience an underpaid service worker on a tight schedule. The last thing I'd do is prop my phone up next to a teacup, sit down and film a dramatic bleeping monologue before warbling Oasis into the camera 'to be vulnerable and grow'

A chef of fame, a wealthy queen, Whose food left all with a sour scene, Her recipes, a mockery of taste, Leaving diners with a bitter aftertaste.
Her rinced spaghetti hoops, a disaster, An inedible creation, an edible master, But still, she defended it with all her might, And threatened those who criticized with a spiteful fight.
She sued those who dared to offer an alternative, And basked in her riches, so excessive and addictive, She bathed in coins of gold, but in truth, She was a chef without heart or proof.
For cooking is not just about the glitz and glam, It's about the love, the care, the humble calm, Of creating a meal that nourishes the soul, And brings joy and comfort, making one whole.
But this chef forgot the essence of the craft, And let her greed and ego take the draft, Leaving her food to rot and spoil, In a world where love is the only royal.
And so, her fame became her downfall, A chef without heart, a queen without a call, To serve, to care, to uplift the world, With food that speaks of love and unfurls.

This is a really odd and insignificant thing to be getting so bothered about, so much has happened in the last 7 days and she chooses this rage tweet episode as her comeback? Fishy as f**k
Imo pure deflection

Oh, Jack's talking. Great
I'm exhausted reading that!
I was one of those chambermaids. Late checkouts used to drive me insane.
Thread title nomination
She's sleeping on a couch in a 3/4 bed house the effin liar.
Even her coming back from the silence is now my aneurism.
You mislaid the cash up your nose, hen.
What is the thing about Canada anyway?
Is it just that someone googled "CA Cocaine Anonymous" and found a load of branches in Canada?
Because if you do the same for "UK Cocaine Anonymous" you find lots over here too - including the one in Essex which has a "newcomer" keyring in its shop that's identical to the one Jack showed.
