Reasonably well known? Yeah if you live inside twitter.Of course our dear heart had something to say on Jack's supermarket sharing her name. Bold of her to assume she has functioning taste buds if she thinks all green herbs can be substitued for each other.

Now I ain't no influencer but surely if you want a brand partnership the best thing not to do is write an entire article slagging them off?! Also, after MistyEyedRhetoricGate, what supermarket would touch her with a bargepole?
I hate the way she makes herself out as such a gentle, unassuming soul - "tentatively" "reaching out" to see if they want to collaborate. Frame it truthfully, Jack, you brazenly suggested a lucrative partnership which would result in plenty of publicity and sweet, sweet dollar for the exposure you so crave. Just like Daddy dearest with his incessant local-press seeking.Of course our dear heart had something to say on Jack's supermarket sharing her name. Bold of her to assume she has functioning taste buds if she thinks all green herbs can be substitued for each other.

Absolutely this - it’s very important for parents to understand that seeking help for mental health does not put your children at risk of being taken away. Please seek help when you need it; you’ll be offered support, you will not be penalised.They would not Not unless there was a serious risk of immediate harm.
I keep banging on about this because it is such a dangerous message to parents- seek help for your mental health and risk losing your children.
Sorry, I keep replying, but this. Jack was saying that she had been sober for a week in 2019, claiming ludicrous amounts of alcohol that she had been consuming but that she is now not drinking. Lots of publicity and Guardian articles but at no point did anyone suggest that her child should be taken off her.They would not Not unless there was a serious risk of immediate harm.

She didn't.She claimed she joined but was banned, she was going to provide details to yel, but no idea if she ever did
Can’t just take her coat off like everyone else can she?View attachment 254788
The mittens are from Asda, stand down Fraus. And honestly, the milk tray man. Why are her references always so strangely dated?
She really is such a mithering turnip, what bleeping cheese you numpty? If she didn't know why Jack's is called Jack's does she have any idea how Tesco's got its name? For someone so obsessed with clarity and detail she seems oddly uninformed about the simplest of things.

‘Bid each other good day’. I see poor little urchin Jack was still trapped in the ol’ Dickens novel.Ohhhhhh I can’t keep up with these threads at the mo! But I had to comment on that insta post from the last thread because it made me absolutely seethe. You know she absolutely loved that two people were concerned for her and took time out of their day to pay some attention to fragile little troubled Jack (if it happened which it probably didn’t). It’s so pathetic. Jack Monroe, the protagonist of reality.
‘Notoriously deep lake’. How deep does a lake have to be to obtain notoriety? Does it penetrate into the earth’s core? Is it a gateway into hell? To be fair I’d consider any place with Jack sat waiting at the end of it the gateway to hell.
Aww Naya. That reminds me, remember when Jack jumped on that bandwagon and then deleted the tweets. Speaking of tweets, she’s had her Station Officer Steele hat on this afternoon and has been tweeting about fire safety tips. She is scarred from listening to someone stuck in a grain silo, which I have to confess I snort laughed at as I tried to sneakily grunk.The sheer brass neck of the woman assuming a supermarket was named after her.
Like she is the only person in the world called Jack. Argrghghgh the arrogance infuriates me.
What is she talking about?! I've never heard of Jack's supermarkets. I've just googled and it literally tells you on the home page the stores were named after the Tesco founder, Jack Cohen . Why would a supermarket name themselves after her anyway?!Of course our dear heart had something to say on Jack's supermarket sharing her name. Bold of her to assume she has functioning taste buds if she thinks all green herbs can be substitued for each other.

Like when she did a huge public apology to THAT MAN.It's delusions of grandeur, all of it. When you think about how furious she was that JO got that channel 4 lockdown show. She truly, truly thought that should have been hers. It's the equivalent of a Hollyoaks actor kicking off about not being cast instead of Brad Pitt. Imagine Nigella posting a selfie at a lake and alluding to 'might jump in, but probably not' every few months. Best of all, it paid off and she actually got such a good opportunity out of it.
I know someone who was the bisto kid‘Bid each other good day’. I see poor little urchin Jack was still trapped in the ol’ Dickens novel.
This happens a lot with her writing. If you stop to imagine the actual scenario as described, it’s ludicrous (prune), as routinely pointed out on here. Jack having a quick chat about dogs and ducks with a couple of blokes who’d been concerned she was going to harm herself, tipping their hats to each other and merrily bidding, “Good day!” Jack opening the front door without the postman noticing because he’s too absorbed in standing on her doorstep, rocking on his heels and sniffing the rinsed beans like a Bisto kid.
