She had to quit first term, due to bad metals or some such. Possibly because she wrote a mental nonsense essay about Potemkin villages and crop rotation in the 14th century that was little to do with the subject of….nutrition
I love this Potemkin village bullshit. We've all been down a Wikipedia rabbit hole, love.

Yeah he wants them to roll the London scheme out so that’s primary specifically and he’s quoted in other articles as saying that.

Feed the future are actually focusing on campaigning to extend it to all families on universal credit for now which is a far better first step IMO than rolling out the London scheme nationwide and missing secondary school pupils. So what Oliver is saying currently isn’t what FTF are saying.

I'm 50:50 as to whether this is a joke or true story...

In case it's true, I would pay *good money* to read that essay!

Tats. Instead of a hells angel biker with LOVE HATE, hers appears to say FAKE
omg as IF. It’s a race to the bottom in terms of my least favourite guset, but my absolute fav by far is ‘accidental troll, Jack’. It’s like the ultimate satire. I can’t get enough of it!!!!!!

remember the number one rule of the jackiverse, tenderdoc - if it sounds like the canal made it up, then they probably didn’t!

ETA closely followed by rule no. 2 - NEVER touch the slop

The cost of school dinners cos they've been outsourced as for-profit catering is shocking. Meanwhile rapists, ponces and murderers are fed 3 meals a day at the taxpayers expense. There was a scandal at a school local to me recently where dinner ladies removed plates of food from kids about to eat cos their accounts were in deficit- these are women who are probably mums and grandmothers themselves, utter disgrace. Humiliating and stigmatising.

Nepotism will make me avoid the person and their product as soon as I'm aware of it - stealing a place in culture on the basis of whose muff you shot out of doesn't float my boat. I imagine poor SB will experience the opposite of that if guest doesn't clean up her act and stop being a by-word for grifter. Even if she doesn't care about her own standing or future reputation she should do it for him. He'll be tarred by association.

I genuinely can’t imagine what goes through the heads of dinner ladies removing food from children in deficit as if it’s their fault.

At high school if they know it’s because they got three sausage rolls at break and didn’t save money for lunch then fair enough but when it’s because their parents can’t (or won’t) add enough money or the free allowance doesn’t buy a full meal at high school sometimes it just seems incredibly so cruel.

Looks like fake tattoos that look like they spell fake!
They were fake for this TERRIBLE photoshoot and say (fuck knows why) LOVE CAKE

Fuck me, the Guardian had their head so far up her arse they could have licked her tonsils from the inside. Cunts all.

I missed that, I’ll give it a listen thanks @Darvos

And I have to say that the “guest does less than nothing so let’s critique someone doing something decent” whataboutery really boils my onions.

I think it’s fair enough to point out when someone is getting all headlines for a) saying something that’s at odds with what the scheme they are backing is saying (a scheme with far more experience of FSM and need than JO will personally have) and b) thus making it more likely the politicians will want to do “their” idea even if that means the most pressing needs aren’t actually met because Mr/Mrs Well Off Celeb got what they wanted.

He’s doing more than Jack but let’s be real, that’s a fucking low bar.

This is not the same person. I refuse to believe it. She obviously pays for stunt doubles. Especially the ones trying the slop.

If you removed the E from the left hand it would say 'Love Gak'. Probably more accurate.

Rockabilly Jack is cringey, but at least the studio photos show her natural face shape and jawline. No ickle-pickle Peter-Pixie-Pan sharpened chins and giant eyes. And they've got her to close her massive gummy gob. I think the bouffant is a wig though.

I should say the one doctor cancels out the other doctor and we're all even stevens in the world.
Thank you. I wasn't sure how it worked - was it "doctor" doubled, "doctor" squared or what - but having the second one cancel out the first (like when you press the "mute" button twice on your telly control). That's very reassuring, actually , , ,
