I was worried myself going into the media as quite a few people are a bit posh.
Most of them are posh like 'I grew up in a 5 bed house and my Dad is a landlord' kinda posh but I never had any grief.
Only from one exec but she was a notorious cow to pretty much everyone regardless of whether or not you went to uni.

Same. Really pissed off at her trying to get twitter points by claiming she planned a trip to Auschwitz. Not even went there, just had a random thought of going and never went through with it. Disrespectful and tasteless in the extreme, but sure what else would you expect from her?
By attending a grammar school, Jack had a 'better' (for want of a less clunky word) educational prospects than someone of equal intellect attending a school in a disadvantaged area or in special measures - same way that someone going to Oxbridge has afforded certain (fairly or unfairly) advantages over someone who went to a former Poly. Privilege is a sliding scale.
That being said, I think it's reductive and, frankly, a bit 1950s to ascribe such value to Oxbridge. Its a bit like that ancient John Cleese / Ronnie Barker / Ronnie Corbett sketch - "I'm middle class, so I look up to him, but I look down on him".

Hmmm, so in 2014 she was the only one who saw the rise of the far right in Europe? I guess no one in the UK had heard of Farage or UKIP then. And no one but her was paying attention to what was happening in Austria or Hungary. And I'm sure the Italians felt totally secure in their newly elected left-wing government after years of Berlusconi. Oh, and let's not forget the waves the AfD made in Germany in 2013. Of course, no political commentator apart from her paid the slightest bit of attention to a far right party who almost made it to parliament in fuckjng Germany!
duck off, you bore. You aren't stupid because you didn't go to uni. You are stupid because you are convinced that you are clever.
So the guests at the dinner party were her friends? If so why does she have friends like that? OR they’re Allegra’s friends. In which case, why would Allegra have friends like that and why would you choose to spend time with them? I would happily (and do) have my husband’s friends round for dinner and it would be really fun because my husband wouldn’t have crappy friends. If you have to keep telling everyone how clever you are, are you? I just find it all fascinating.
Well google finds a twitter link but it’s gone, do we think waybackmachine might have it?In my defence I didn't know how to cook at the time...
Does anyone remember when she kicked off because Del Monte uploaded a very similar recipe onto their website? This was pre Tattle and it was a proper pile on.
I dare say you're probably right..
There would presumably also be some disgusting attempt at inserting herself into a comparable narrative. She's absolutely that sort of c*nt.
I think the best thing would be just for Jack to acknowledge her (and return her £20, privately with profuse thanks for the lovely gesture).
She reminds me of superfan, who only wanted a bit of recognition. Which makes me sad .
She's also kind of saying that fascism affects her specifically? That they were ~laughing at her from their bubble of privilege~ is implying that they didn't take it seriously because they are not the ones targeted by fascists whereas she is? All because she didn't get to do a grief tour with daddy.
Thick and lazy, too lazy to even memorise her own poem for Edinburgh.
She's a priviledged entitled teeny tiny bleep.
It is one of those anecdotes that gets embroidered over years - someone took issue with something naive she said, she felt humiliated, and because NO-ONE MUST CHALLENGE HER AND SHE KNOWS ALL, in her head it's become Carrie at the prom.
What was that in response to? Was it just a tweet?
Yes, very interesting that she would rather stay 'in' with the very successful ex than name names and risk losing the contact
Why does she seem to think that you have to go to Auschwitz to acknowledge that fascism exists? Sorry I can't get over this I don't understand.
While we’re owning up to recipes we’ve made, has anyone tried the marmite loaf from veganish? I am the biggest marmite fan in the world but it was horrifying, you couldn’t taste anything else so it was a complete waste of the vegan cheese that went in it. My guess is she maybe made it with dairy cheese and just assumed they work the same.
It's in response to someone basically pointing out how disgusting it is for Jack to not even acknowledge that someone has sent her £20 out of their heating discount. They didn't tag Jack they were just saying it on their own timeline.What was that in response to? Was it just a tweet?
Aw I know you guys have probably already said it so much better, but her anecdote makes no bleeping sense.
Jack says she is concerned about the rise of the rise of the far right and wants to go to Auschwitz to write a report about it.
It's no wonder they fell about laughing? Even though this anecdote sounds incredibly fictional?
She isn't a political reporter or a historian so what insight could she possibly think she could bring to the topic?
I am writing carefully here and trying not to be flippant because she should not casually mention these places for clout. She has no sense of decency whatsoever.

Does it count when you've bought it out of money other people have given you though because apparently, you're only poor when it's you're own money you're low on....... Or something.
