Someone really needs to sit Jack down and explain to her what a horrible human being she is and how offensive her behaviour is. Time and time again she has squandered the platform she's only been given because being in the media have about as much knowledge of poverty and working class life as I do about about life on the planet Jupiter.
She's been at this scam for close to a decade and what has her contribution to anti-poverty campaigning been? Some depressing store cupboard recipes, endlessly embroidering ever more implausible tales about how poor she was, starting Twitter pointless beef over nothing and now demanding the opportunity to humiliate some daft posh bint on the telly.
Not once has she ever attempted to elevate the voices of people actually living in poverty. Has she ever stopped to think about the people who were born poor and will likely die that way? People for whom the best hope of advancement in life is a lottery win? Whatever suffering she experienced during her brief stint in poverty, she had some work experience behind her, she's well spoken, she's employable. She would have known that it wasn't forever and if things really became too much to bear she had parents and family that could step in. The country is full of people who had terrible starts in life and never catch up. What does her poverty larping do for them?
She demonstrates no gratitude for her almost entirely undeserved good fortune in life, is absolutely abysmal to the poor souls who haven't seen through her yet and is utterly useless as a campaigner or even just as a minor celeb. I found myself feeling slightly sorry for her recently in a moment of weakness but she really is a catastrophic malevolent arse.
