Absolutely gross that she's gonna be talking about 'food and social justice' where her only experience is boo hoo I was on benefits very briefly 10 years ago. Get Diane Purkiss on who literally wrote the book on the social history of food which is about class. Jack is a middle class mic hogging bore.

I've occasionally got paid, it's usually about £50 for radio if you're lucky, a bit more for telly (£200-500), and usually nothing if you're representing an organisation or have something to plug.

Am I making it up, but didn't she actually say somewhere she was checking Tattle on her phone? When we were having our DKL watchalong parties?
Saying something like 'imagine having to read that when you are live on TV and trying your best'?
I am sure Jack was trying her best, but it really wasn't good enough.

It would be like paying £50 for a haircut by the new apprentice who tried their best but you ended up looking like Jack after a visit to Toni & Guy.

Why does she keep doing a big gross nose wipe. Are their no tissues? You'd think an immunocompromised person after the pandemic would carry a few kleenex. Also its just fucking gross!

Babe, same. I was invited on to some itv morning thing (I dunno what, I don’t watch the telly) to talk about something I specialise in. This was during lockdown and was to be an online appearance. I was offered the square root of fuck all. My bit got bumped at the last minute as Dominic Cummings was up to some of his antics and was taking over the airwaves

I once got dropped on national network because Leonardo DiCaprio won an Oscar, selfish bastard

That’s why Jackie’s claims about doing her own washing up are bollocks. It just wouldn’t be tolerated in that low-cost, fast turnaround world.

Babe, same again. I got bumped from a TV appearance because one of the participants and their PR nazis threw a strop and refused to debate, then paid the production company to turn the show into a promo for them. It would have been amazing. I'd cleared the rest of my diary, but I didn't get paid or otherwise compensated because I hadn't actually done the work. Annoying.
The org responsible appears to have gone tits up now.
