Wish you could knock the heads together of those who tweet her with budget food initiatives / concerns about prices (etc). It's clear that popping up every few months going "Cor blimey guvna oive campayned against price rises forever apples and pears" that she DOESN'T bleeping DO ANYTHING other than that.

I can just picture Jack sitting in the green room before the show muttering "cost of Conservatives crisis, cost of Conservatives crisis" to herself in preparation.
I hate the Tories as much as anyone (maybe even as much as Jack!) but they didn't put up the price of cheese, did they? Living costs soaring is not a phenemenon confined to the UK and while the decay of public services is in many ways making it worse it's not entirely on them however easy it might be to score a point by saying it is. There have been Cost of Living payments to people on benefits and we all got that money towards fuel costs this winter, and while we can imagine that Labour would have done better they're not the radical socialists some on Twitter seem to think they are and would probably have done more or less the same things. The cost of the weekly shop (which for most people is more than £20, Jack) is the result of the war in Ukraine, Brexit (which Labour are mostly happy to go along with anyway), climate change, the need in our capitalist system to show greater profits year on year, and all sorts of things that wouldn't just go away if we got rid of the current government.
In some ways it is about the cost of Conservatives, but it's also not and it'd be quite easy for a capable Tory speaker to argue that in response to Jack's soundbite. She's a nervous public speaker who does very little research, she's lucky she didn't get ripped to shreds on QT.

"Jack can you call Mr Asda and get him to put the price of tinned tomatoes down? I think 10p would be a fair price, but I'll let him get away with 11p if he's a tough negotiator. Thanks for all you do!"

Hope for his sake the school know she is someone he visits occasionally and not someone in any way responsible for his parenting. Assuming she made the whole thing up he has little option but to explain his mother just makes things up. She does it all the time.
OMG in the last thread I said she reminded me of Mr Belding when he had his midlife crisis, he calls himself a gnarly biker dude.
What a Question twit! Also that Jess Phillips, whatever she was doing with her face was annoying af. Guest excels at being disingenuous, pulling a few soundbites out of her arse or off twitter. And because she has aligned herself with minority groups, people think she is genuine and deserves kudos. This happens after every big appearance. Any new twitter followers will find out what she is like soon enough. I'm just surprised no one is jumping on vapegate at the Hellsite.

*sniff* It’s not a cost of living cost crisis it’s a crust of cost umm of the conservatories prices HONK thank much you very fiona *smug gurn*
[sole clap from an audience member still trying to tune their hearing aid to ‘T’]
As I don't believe a word she says, does SBs school even have a blazer as part of the uniform?
Caught up on QT. As others have noted, Guest’s comments on the cost of living were just an utterly room temperature, low-resolution, sub-sixth-form take on it all.
Given her decade-long poverty campaigning™ niche, I’d expect at least a passing mention of COVID, unnecessarily long and extreme lockdowns, global supply chain issues, monetary policy, and Ukraine.
What do we get? “Tories are bad mmmkay and everyone cheered etc.”.
Woeful.

Quite. Aside from the point lots of Fraus have already made about it generally not being penniless single mothers themselves that are stealing this stuff, she doesn't seem to understand that rampant shop theft drives prices up for all the other people who are struggling. This is just more bullshit posturing from this fatuous head, who you just know would have been the little snitch grassing up the other kids at school for smoking behind the science block. She doesn't give a duck about people having to resort to shoplifting to feed their babies, she's just a sad Billy No-Mates, following the cool Lefty Twitter kids about and trying to join their crew by mimicking their slang and dressing like them.
I've long believed Jack doesn't want to end poverty - or else she's out of a "job". She makes just enough noise, kicks out just enough soundbites to fool her target market and some media segments.
The only reason I look at my fellow shoppers is so I don't ram them with my trolley. They could be shoplifting half the store and I wouldn't notice. I certainly wouldn't go hunting round the store to find a security guard to grass thrm up to.
I can't remember who it was on the hellsite that blocked me round the time of Grifty's launch - her publishers maybe? - when they called her a "poverty campaigner" and I asked if she was anti- or pro-
When is the next event because I’ve either got to count giant buttons until then or join the daily student rave (that is most definitely not sober or silent ) in order to pass the time.

At our local little branch of Boots they have put put out dummy baby milk boxes. I commented about it and they said it was being stolen as it's ideal to cut with powdered drugs.
Oh, the irony if Southend
is laced with stolen baby milk powder.
Green Squig has 70k followers but just to be on the safe side.
(I cropped out someone replying to the first tweet saying she receives a lot of abuse)
I just snorted in the office at "Jack is a major threat to big business"
Hey guys - sorry for the delay in this!
Jack opened June 2023 with 402 paying Patreon subscribers, taking home an estimated £5.0k. She is down 6.1% on prior month having lost 32 subscribers and gaining 4 across the month of May, netting off to -26 being realised on payday. This is her 9th consecutive month of losses but not as severe as I'd hoped considering the chaos of GB News calling out the missing money, being a guest at Tina Turner, some Twitter am dram from her, and lots of v exciting activity around the grift on Twitter - even Frances Weetman got a kick in. She's still up 1.6* pre-Nigella figures, but if you scroll all the way up to Feb 2021 we are not that far away from our when-records-began figure of 346 subscribers. And once again I really implore her to unhide her revenue figure so we can more accurately report on this.

She’s mentioned a blazer before in the long hot summer of 2021.
( She thought that teachers in his school were forcing him to wear a blazer in the scorching heat and she threatened to go in and boot their heads in until he was allowed to go in wearing her choice of shorts and t shirt. The teachers in his school are obviously vile individuals who hate children.)*
* I may have made this part up for my own amusement.
I just saw this on Facebook. Is this a new recipe? Or reused from the other year's collab? You'd think she'd have advertised anyway, as it would be lazy/easy content.
