Who the hell said society was fair?
When I was poor I still retained the ability to cook!I wish someone would ask whether these books are being donated or paid for? Isn’t it massively patronising to people to assume they want or need Jack’s book? I’m pretty sure many would prefer that money to go on treats in these hampers-it comes across as ‘here you go poor person, and a book on how to cook cheap shite as you clearly don’t know’
She really is a prize bleep isn't she?

“And I suppose I’ve seen red a bit because he didn’t mention me, the ragged trousered philanthropist, and also I have literally nothing to do all day and no one to hang out with”
Fixed it for ya hun
Louisa wants the highbrow stories. The Jackanory story under her nose, that’s more Channel 5 territory: “Narcissists from HELL, ex-fiancé special”!It makes me laugh, the asking for stories on her Twitter. Has she not noticed the one right under her nose!
Was it ‘give them all more money’ or something spectacularly useless. ‘Policy Level’ sounds clever but it’s totally pointless unless you actually work in government and understand what that means and what needs to happen to change actual policy. I can’t imagine why he’s never mentioned it. He might as well visit the local sixth form for deep political insight.View attachment 284413

Yes, and just because she’s spoken about policy changes in front of KGM doesn’t mean he either agrees or disagrees with her ‘ideas’. He can’t change policy. He is trying to rally people around to dip their hands in their pockets, while people that he supports (MR) fight for policy change in the meantime. It’s like saying don’t worry about refugees, they shouldn’t be being bombed. Yes, we know that they shouldn’t have ever been subjected to war or famine, but how can they be helped right this minute? Helping out AND wanting policy change are not mutually exclusive you self-absorbed ninny!Was it ‘give them all more money’ or something spectacularly useless. ‘Policy Level’ sounds clever but it’s totally pointless unless you actually work in government and understand what that means and what needs to happen to change actual policy.

You are so right. The assumption that someone who is going through financial difficulties has no idea about cooking or budgeting is unbelievably patronising. People who have minimal food budgets come from all walks of life, have all sorts of skills, and are all sorts of ages, and come from all sorts of cultures and nationalities. They also have different dietary requirements and some will have intolerances and allergies.Surely a book voucher would be much nicer. Gives people the choice to pick up a cookbook of their choice. I've been given many cookbooks over the years. The only ones of any use to me are from two friends who know me and how I cook extremely well. Cooking is a personal thing. What you like doesn't just depend on money, but on food preferences, skill level, how you eat as a family, etc, etc. It's patronising to think that just because you have to rely on a food bank you have no skills.
oh, Alan! A gift honestly.
Backfired? This was the plan, surely? It’s no coincidence that she started this Sunday ritual and the plentiful tweets, right slap bang in the middle of the crisis. She had to come up with something that could compete for attention with Rashford, and would serve to place her somewhere close to centre of attention. If the ultimate goal of self-promotion comes at the expense of goodwill shown to those in need, well, duck ‘em.Her 20 quid shop has really backfired, people will now pluck Jack out of the air as an example on why 20 is supposedly enough. For example, like: "Jack Monroe has proven on several occasions that you can do enough with just 20 pounds, enough that she can go back for a second trip! So much food she is carrying home. It's all about budgeting". What many twitter readers don't realise is that this 20 quid shop isn't feeding a family, it is feeding a small person some rations, and that JM is living off her pre-stocked cupboards and Ocado orders. Her 20 quid shop is FAKE NEWS. Cretin.
