SB, Mummy has bought you 3 fish, but you can’t give them name, I have to do that.

Doesn’t everyone else let their children name their pets. I can guess he wasn’t allowed to name the cats or the dog either. I mean my cat has a stupid name, isn’t that the bleeping point. He was 3 he would have picked ridiculous names, that’s the point!

Why is it at every turn she shows herself to be a horrible parent.
Mine named our current dog Bea, after one of her favourite singers Beabadoobee.

Plus in my time renting the landlord provided the lawnmower if they expected the tenant to do it. And for garden camping as a povvo we just cooked in the house and ate outside and slept in the tent, we didn't act like we were at base camp

Excellent point on the home insurance. If she does genuinely have ADHD, I can sympathise with finding it difficult to get motivated to sort boring adult life admin like that, but what I cannot sympathise with is asking others to pick up the tab for it.
Speaking from my own experience here but you're more likely to end up being fleeced every year from not shopping around on insurance ever since that one time your dad made you sit at the table and just make the bloody phone call because I'm not replacing everything if one of your idiot flatmates leaves the door unlocked at 3am after going out all night on a mad one.

She was too poor and anxious to go to a festival so she needed camping equipment for her garden escapades.
My brother in law is always pleading poverty and spent over £1500 on camping equipment as a way for them to have ‘cheap holidays’.
they went away for one weekend, wrecked all the equipment, didn’t dry out the top of the range tent, obviously never went again.

Ladies and gentlemen, please place your bets on how long it will be before the next plea for money!

I reckon there will be another in the next couple of weeks, possibly tied into the release of an article with an embellished story about a hardship she has suffered.

Stalking was a good 'in' Jack because it's trending. Bravo. Unfortunately for you, people are SAVVY now when it comes to social media begs and you'll be seen before you rake in too much money.

Well done on upholding your principles and keeping that Twitter account! What a gift you are to a world that loves performative do-good-ism with absolutely duck all behind it.

Honestly that’s the weirdest part of the article for me. The fact it happened at all and the fact Shattenstone admitted to it both absolutely baffle me.

1) Why would the ringing chain around Southend be disclosed to Shattenstone in the first place? Surely they’d just tell him “Nah, can’t get hold of her, sod this”.

2) Why on earth would he think putting that in was good? He basically opened himself up for accusations of taking advantage of someone fragile and gave her the perfect opportunity to highlight much smol very fragile everyone worries about lickle Jackie.

3) why wouldn’t half the chain just say “duck off not my job she’s probably had a bender”?

4) how the duck did the Guardian think she/her article was that important it was worth all that effort to wait for her to be roused and do it all on a massive delay and precisely how much did that cost them?

I know people say “But it’s set in stone that will be the cover” but frankly no excuse for me - there should always be a back up plan in case something happens to an interviewee because even the most consummate professional could be hit by a bus/have a delayed flight/have an unexpected bereavement/get chickenpox right before the interview. This goes 1000x more when it’s someone who is literally known for addiction issues, being unreliable and throwing her toys out of the pram more than a teething toddler (ie Jack) so there was probably a 50% chance at best they were gonna get an interview out of her. They’re the Guardian, not some tiny local newspaper, bffr.
and this is exactly why I'm on the side of her should NEVER have allowed her to manipulate him into going to a pub. Eight hours previously everyone was panicking she'd relapsed. You have only her word for it she hasn't. You don't expose yourself to accusations of exploiting a vulnerable smol addict if you have any concept of journalistic ethics imho

One lil nugget I'd never noticed before from that article:

Two bags? And one had a cereal box in? That's nothing! If I thought someone in my family was Dickensianly, melodramatically, painstakingly STARVING in a HOVEL, I'd do a bigger shop than that for them. you can fill two bags just going to the Sainsbury's local for cheap biscuits. Is it possible she made that story up too

Sounds more like a top up shop of treats for someone who had a tough time. Plus eating your kids cereal is crappy

She just has to overegg the hacking.

I could maybe muster some support if told the truth about weird people (who are very much on her level) abusing the recover your account function to get into one of your accounts then live tweeting videos at the same time as things are changing on patreon (before dirty deleting the foolish posts highlighting illegal activity).

But she insists on being dishonest. 🤦‍♀️

Plus, given the length of time between her patreon being hacked and her tweet, it just smacks of a lame excuse.

I reckon, if her air fryer promo hadn't been utter dogshit and she had a full calendar of festival appearances coming up this year, she wouldn't have made any reference to "Ebil Trolls" at all. This is either a preliminary to a HH3 or a "Content ate my homework" excuse as to why she's not in the public eye anymore.

Oh duck the duck off.
Her insurance wouldn't be super-cheap if she actually insured everything - but given the amount of high end photo equipment, laptop etc etc that she apparently needs for her WORK she would be a complete bleeping idiot not to pay for insurance (although she could insure that separately as a sole trader)
In 2021 Mr Beacon and I had extremely comprehensive contents insurance for our RENTED 3-bed house, including fancy bikes (£800 each), tools, jewellery (my 2 haunted engagement rings...), camera equipment, laptops, big TV, plus legal add-ons, out-of-the-house insurance etc etc - cost us £320.27 for the year with MoreThan, but having been burgled before I think it's worth it. She can't be boasting about all her spenny stuff (good stoves!) and with the same breath claim she can't afford to insure it. That's just dumb, and as others have said, incredibly offensive to people who are genuinely on a tight budget
