I wondered about her thoughts on Schofield. Thank goodness he didn't get a credit in Grifty Kitchen - one of the few celebrities who didn't.
He is drawing attention away from her, but the worry is lots of people can come to sites like Tattle to read his threads, then have a look at hers.
Also it also proved so called national treasures are not untouchable. Not that guest is a national treasure

People are wondering if Williams might fall, hot on the heels of Pip and ITV. If he is a wrongun, I hope he does, but not until after his Hay thing. Can’t cope with Jack glomming onto that on Monday.
I think he probably is a wrongun, and I think Jack knew/knows that too, that’s why she went after him. Her MO when she truly goes after people tends to be sticking to people where she knows that half her audience will read their name and instantly side with her no matter the details (Hopkins, Walliams, Anderson…) and the time she didn’t (the school guy) it seemed to explode in her face. She also thought she was safe with David Cameron for the same reason, but obviously crossed the line with her comments.

Her jabs at THAT man and Fingers were just that, jabs - not the same level of going after.

She can't tweet about any work. What's the point in a guest who can't promote the event? She's so disliked she'd have a reasonable crack at being the next Bond villian.
Exactly. Professionally (I know, I laughed at that myself) she's finished on Twitter. She should just use it like the majority of us do, tweeting banal shit and retweeting things we find amusing. Oh wait, she already does that Absolutely no idea where she can go from here on in

Thanks for all you do, Today's Dead Cat, Phil 🫶

A Doctor Who villain. I can totally see that.

That’s Cassandra with portrait mode on
This is Cassandra unfiltered

( always a sign of a good joke when you have to explain it but for the non geeks , flat Cassandra is the last pure blood human alive in Doctor who , and is played by Zoë Wanamaker. Other Cassandra is a computer who can tell the future in Red Dwarf and is played by Geraldine McEwan. There is some mild rivalry between the two fandoms and every now and then a newish fan will mix the two up ( as the actresses don’t look or sound that dissimilar ) and almost start war.)

Evening ninnies! I haven't been able to catch up as I spent most of today getting to the Hay festival , Not here to see Jackie unfortunately but oh boy the journey from Southend will be fun even if she's being driven. I'd hedge my bets for a car-chaos perhaps the day before. If I was a professional attending such an event I would surely stay overnight beforehand.

When I spoke at Hay they put me up in a b and b. I needed to stay for two nights, because I was doing one (unpaid) event first thing in the morning and then another (poorly paid) late in the afternoon but they would only pay for one night cheap gits.

And they are making a bucket load out of this.

Just FYI, everyone I've seen is precisely Jack's target audience. White middle class people being "deep thinkers" about important issues whilst sitting in a big tent with 'luxury' looks.

Am I the only one here who saw the recent, quite long, Twitter thread where a well known Jack sock was defending her?? This was only a couple of days ago, since deleted, but the "defender" came across really well and made some really good points, in all honesty IMO the socks account of events made some of the anti-jack contingent just look completely obsessed, unhinged and unreasonable. The explanations put forward by the sock were very eloquent, not rude or snarky, and actually made it seem that possibly...just possibly....Jack's sincerely held belief is that she is (a) a genuine campaigner with a good heart, (b) has never intentionally cheated money from anyone, (c) is a flawed human being who acknowledges it and (d) has always had good intentions despite her own failings.

Has anyone got the screenshots of the thread?? I'd love to hear other ninnies view of it.

Jack's sock was arguing that Jack is delusional? That doesn't sound very supportive.

I did not see it.

But it is blatantly obvious to anyone who has browsed through the Tattle Wiki, or Molly's Medium/Blog posts, or any of the other ones that sprang up in their wake (complete with screenshots of Jack's own words, et al) that it's just not the case, is it?

I would even go a step further and say that if Jack genuinely believes all that, she is severely mentally ill. She has proven to be incapable of finishing projects on schedule, if they're finished (or started, even!) at all. Each time she learns absolutely nothing from her mistakes and repeats the same exact pattern over and over again. The coining it in, the long silences punctuated with 'really sorry, life is hard and I'm in bad mentals', the eventual under-delivery, if any delivery ever materialises at all, the final 'it's over and done now, so deeply sorry to have failed you, why can't you just let me LIVE' faux-apology. Rinse and repeat.
