Thanks so much, I sometimes read my own posts back and get emotional myself if I am honest,. They bring back so many memories that I have pushed to the back of my mind. I do sometimes worry that I am being a bit like Jack though; talking about me too much.
Let’s face it, more should have been made of the disastrous Kickstarter. That told you all you need to know about Jack, how grasping she is, and how contemptuous of her (non-blue tick) followers. She essentially conned people and was rude and aggressive to them when they had the nerve to ask where their promised books had got to (after two years!). The press should have been on that like a ton of bricks.
Amazing how Jack Monroe came out a cockney urchin WC queen with a Tory brother like this, isn’t it? It’s almost as if dad was a landlord in an affluent area? Oh.Omg that fucking potatoes essay includes the story about her decking her brother.Can't believe she would say this publicly about a family member, how fucking awkward.
(My brother was in the RAF last time we spoke, a couple of Christmases ago, when he described Iain Duncan Smith as the best thing to happen to this country and told me I had chosen to have a baby outside of marriage so deserved everything I got. It’s fair to describe us as ‘estranged’ these days, I don’t know how it works in the aristocracy but where I’m from being decked by your little sister is seen as a bit embarrassing.)
I think she was pretty anti Corbyn too. She also briefly flirted with the WEP. And gave actual SPEECHES for the pro-Indy Scottish Green party, and the SNP too, despite admitting to actively campaigning against independence with sock puppet accounts (Benedict Cumberscotch? OK pal). I'm baffled at the support she still gets from certain quarters of twitter. Basically she'll 'support' anyone who will give her a quick buck for telling her ~story~ but she'll ultimately back the British state because that's what she is - an establishment Britnat who boasts about being 'military around the edges'.
She had a taste of the high life with Allegra and has never forgotten it. She still thinks she’s entitled to that lifestyle, which is why she keeps banging on about owning her house. Remember, she had to be talked out of a crowdfunder to buy a house by Louisa, and only recently hinted that she may be considering this again. She thinks only of herself.
Yes, this reminds of the "lipstick effect" in recessions whereby sales of white goods etc fall but small cheap luxuries like lipstick and fast food see a rise in sales. There is something very mean spirited about the belief that poor people must never have a treat like a bag of chips or a few sweets or something "cheaply pleasant" as Orwell nicely puts it.So, in my fury on FSM and the elite/entitled thinking those in need should forage or go without their mobiles (actually, in my former places of work, many of those on FSM couldn’t afford phones) a quick scroll on insta brought up an appropriate quote by George Orwell on Felicity Cloake’s page.
He wrote about why those in poverty didn’t want
“wholesome things like oranges and wholemeal bread” but that when “you are underfed, harassed, bored, and miserable, you don’t want to eat wholesome, dull food. You want something a little bit ‘tasty’. There is always something cheaply pleasant to tempt you. Let’s have three penworth of chips!”
This just shows why she doesn’t truly understand the meaning of being poor and why she panders to the middle class ideal of what they think being poor is.
She’s had her arse handed to her and couldn’t get angry because blue ticker so she’s run off with her tail in between her legs. Hopefully she’s realised that she’s fucked up with the £20 shop and that she has nothing constructive to say on the issue.So she’s gone quiet this evening? How funny that Southend’s biggest gobshite never has anything to say while serious things are happening. Any other random day, she’s raving about crisps, or sandwiches, or garlic. One time there’s (theoretically) a bit of useful commentary she could add, and she’s all meek and mild and “having a break from the hellscape”. Anyone would think she doesn’t actually want to help
Are you aware of my work, Marcus?Is Marcus aware that he’s working with Jack?
It's not me, she blocked me for liking a tweet from the rail company when she sat in the wrong seat after her Edinburgh jaunt
‘I just buy for a food bank what I would buy for myself.’just found this. it appears to be not new, but I've never seen it before!
ETA, ooh, snap scarlet!
Does anyone have a stat onit's already all been said while you were napping/fondling your luxury goods!

All mouth and no traaazzzers
Starting a pile-on counts as #activism in Jackworld, regardless of how little it actually achieves (and in fact how detrimental it is to the cause that Rashford has put so much time and care into). She's pathetic.
How is she yet to understand that the “rage and fury” doesn’t achieve anything? MR has one clear goal and has been calm, consistent and taken action.
