Do we think (I have wondered for some time) that some of the dafter questions/failures to Google that she gets asked are from (e.g) disgruntled KH fans trolling her?
She needs to be careful with that memoir. The vast majority of what she spouts is bollocks. If it goes into actual published print it will be there forever and ever, unlike the libellous tweets she deletes. People who normally wouldn't have heard if her would have their bullshit radar triggered.
If she includes stuff about her son's father it could really affect him financially as well as his reputation. He could easily sue, or at the very least sell his side of the story. Either way her lies will be exposed. I know he's kept schtum so far but it could be the last straw.
If she goes on about being a firefighter (
) and how she was badly treated/sexually discriminated they would at the very least release an official statement to say it isn't true.If she goes on about her 'awful' family , some random cousin would come out and say it is bollocks.
If she says about her myriad of ailments, an actual doctor or specialist would raise questions.
I know she's put it all out there before but it is (often deleted) tweets. The 'essays' are small fry compared to a full on book. People from her past who she's slagged off/lied about have just ignored it or blocked her. This would be mainstream and people would have to answer the lies being told.
Perhaps because she is unhappy it is. I notice that if I am in a tit mood my baking isn't as good. I bake for fun but if I am feeling tit the recipies dont turn out so well.
Plus as she is making some very strange combinations so it won't always work. Also her food always looks very bland coloured.
I thought chefs like colour and a range of textures. I used to watch alot of master chef and Michel roux used to bang on about that sort of stuff all the time
Out of interest, what's the going rate for submitting a well written and largely truthful piece for inclusion in a memoir like this? Is there a different rate for retaining anonymity/privacy?
If she also writes a book it does also open her up to a lot more criticism from the right wing press. I normally cannot stand them but my god would I love a Daily Mail story on her.
Also SB's Dad may have kept schtum in the early days to maintain access and keep the peace - as alluded to in that MN post. But now he seems to have SB for a significant amount of time and SB is old enough to make his own mind up about seeing his Dad. Only thing Dad has to lose is his reputation.

I don't think the raw, grinding poverty that is happening right now, of which food poverty is just one aspect, is prevalent within the twitter community. We're seeing malnutrition, nutrition deficiencies and death in the news. Obesity is a side affect of food poverty, access to quality food in deprived areas is hard to come by and food education is vanishingly scarce. JM clearly sufferered and overcame but hers was a different kind of poverty, she had enough education and opportunity to climb out of it and a family and Co parent ready to step up. Other than food banks and shouting at the wealthy, I rarely see her championing other people and resources, considering nutrition or tackling the root causes. And now a book, isn't that monetising food poverty. Why not focus on creating an income from what sells in an ethical way whilst being an activist and rasing awareness. Whatever your feelings about THAT MAN he came from nothing and has done alot to tackle the issues he believes in. JM has done some good stuff, but she's fast turning into Uncle Albert.
She has such a platform, why doesn't she go out and actively seek out these street kitchens talk to the people both in recipient and who work there of the things they have seen and heard, perhaps volunteer some of her own time to cook and feed these people.
Why doesn't she petition Tesco's etc to do something with their left over fresh foods where it can be distributed at closing time by volunteers to people rather than the bin. I am talking about left over bread and cooked foods or chicken other meats.
She could ask resturants to do the same, to giver over any foods that havent been purchased and are going to spoil out to volunteers to distribute to the hungry.
Help people learn to grow foods by asking local councils to give out free seed bags of some vegetables and berries that can be easily grown in small plots or even window boxes.
There is literally so much she could be doing it, but it involves her getting off her arse and dealing with the masses.
That's what people in poverty need... Help...
Not another book about what it's like being poor, they know that already.
No-it wouldn’t. He’s amazing & doing just fine on his own. Why on earth would he want a liability like JM riding his coattails?

Political campaigner? I must have missed the lobbying she did to bring UBI into a proper debate at least, the free school meals for all, the jobs for all never mind benefits, access to home economics education, local food coop funding, partnerships with FE and HE to bring about change to student funding, encouraging the boycotting of animal cruelty in the food chain, calling on politicians to give up their severe expenses allowance, dismantling the £75 a day they get to spend at Westminster on unwashed beans, or however much it is. Jesus suffering she wants to write her bleeping memoir? What an inflated sense of achievement she has. What an absolute thundercunt of an ego. Please DO duck off!! And when you get there, duck off some more.
Hope you had time for a piss and a sandwich?

I just watched Buddy Oliver create pizzas on Instagram. He’s done more than she did on that tit Shed show in terms of explanation and direction, has done the whole thing from start to finish without getting hysterical, and has actually produced something that looks tasty. Obvs (hi Jack 
) when she reads this she’ll be screaming nepotism, but his dad hasn’t bought him his cheerful attitude and actual ability to chop bloody garlic. Buddy also clearly has an interest and determination that Jamie’s other kids don’t have for cooking, and I heard JO say, on someone or others’ podcast, that Buddy will happily do 12 hour days with him in a professional kitchen. I don’t think we’ve ever seen Jackie complete a recipe from start to finish, have we? My worst recipe of hers must surely be ‘sausagne’ 
where she put raw sausages and an uncooked tin of tomatoes into a lasagne. Rank.

that would involve getting off Twitter, tattle, ig, her backside, interfear with her 22 hours sleep, 20 hours 'work' 12 deep cleans of the kitchen, attacking people on trains Etc etc she’s so
But Jack easily does that many hours of work before breakfast!
But seriously, in Earth hours, that’s like a month’s worth of work for Monroe. Fair play to the lad..
I think she should just let him get on. He worked very hard to do this. Let him do it. If he wants help I am sure he will ask.
Particular high point in an otherwise brilliant post.
And contender for next thread title?

She just can't take a hint can she? MR has being doing this for months and he is still ignoring her. It is hilarious!
I'd never heard of him before this but since it started I've just thought 'oh, good lad' (in a non patronising way)
My guess is that he was doing stuff like this for years but upped his output during the pandemic. Quiet, dignified, not courting attention.
Jackie has retweeted, liked and tagged herself in his tweets. I remember a couple of cringeworthy responses to him saying things like 'we are fighting poverty' etc. Trying to make it look like she was part of the campaign when she wasn't. Her fans have plagued him with requests for him to 'collaborate' with her.
TUMBLEWEED..
He just hasn't responded. Someone like MR probably doesn't man his SM accounts 24/7. He will have 'people' who are media and brand savvy. There is no way his people would sanction working with her.
Uncle albert!
Every time she tells one of her tall tales, in my head its prefaced by 'durin' the war'...
Why is he expected to work with her, sure they share a similar niche but he's doing his thing and she is doing hers. If he wants her backing she is well enough known in those circles that he can indeed seek her out, she doesn't need to seek him out. He's a grown man with a mouth in his head he can ask her.
