Jesus Christ.
Too short but really, what is there to add? Painful.

Seeing MR’s Twitter feed and all the people and businesses in local communities offering to help out has given me the eye wets.
I was going to say JM’s feed has never made me cry but then I remembered Brenda’s bangers.

The lovely Matt is up in Jack’s niche taste testing meat substitutes.
Laughing at the clips from other programmes they show being the meatiest beef they could possibly findIn other news, it's vegan day on Saturday Kitchen
I've turned off now but the cut to Rick Stein talking about hunting for wild boars was epic!
Hope everything goes beautifully today @Walkdengirl

A little linky for Jackie. Interesting that Rees-Mogg claimed 0. Not surprised that my old MP, the terribly named Goodwill, has claimed well over £51000
though.

Oh no. I missed a possessive apostrophe in a previous post!. The shame. What should my penance be? Should I makeDo you use the Oxford comma for letters, emails, and notes?
Or do you not use the Oxford comma because you think it’s archaic, unnecessary and annoying?
I’m so with you on the possessive apostrophes - I blame autocorrect for my blunder this morning
She must be kicking herself. She’s confused the poor jackolytes terribly by suggesting it’s easy to live on £20 a week.

The first bit is a perfect summary I feel
I agree with your second point, but with a big emphasis on the 'if' part. IF she is unwell, she has my sympathy. But seeing how she often uses her mental illness as a diversionary tactic when she's not got a leg to stand on, I'm currently struggling to believe there's anything wrong with her, and she's just using it as an excuse not to do anything.
Guess what, Jack? We're *all* tired. We're all scared and sad and tired of the mess that this country is in, and the uncertainty of the future. But we're all still doing *something* however small it might be. I bet the business owners who are currently trying to feed children out of their own pockets, whilst MPs suggest they shouldn't receive any more financial aid, are very tired and very stressed. I bet the parents currently trying to feed their kids on a pittance are even more stressed, even more scared, even more hungry because unlike you, Jack, most of them will be prioritising their children - rather than feeding them cheap tit whilst they take the better stuff.
I've seen so many people doing good. There was a bloke who posted in the community page for my little town that he would cook a meal for anyone who needed it, because he doesn't want kids to go hungry. No blame, no questions asked. Not a restaurant owner, just a normal bloke with two kids of his own and a degree of compassion.
You cook more slop than you'll ever eat all the time, Jack, and we know, because we're not bleeping stupid, that much of it will be wasted. As much as I hate to suggest that anyone should be eating your slop, maybe you could be giving it away to someone going hungry in your community? Or is that not public or visible enough for you? *Apparently* you have portions and portions of meals in your freezer, conveniently divided up into little foil packets. Would be so easy to give them away. If they exist, ofc.
I'm sorry, I just don't believe she is struggling. Or that she's taken a Twitter break because of that. I think she just doesn't care. She really doesn't care enough to do anything other than type out the occasional ragey sentence in 240 characters. It does nothing. DO something, Jack, do SOMETHING. You like typing, type out a letter to your MP. Anything is better than nothing at this point.
Her 'we shouldn't have to because we pay taxes' approach is honestly the biggest indication of her toxic mix of laziness and cold heartedness I've seen so far.
She really just doesn't seem to care.
Hope it goes well for your daughter
I use the Oxford comma on formal emails as I think it can provide clarity.Do you use the Oxford comma for letters, emails, and notes?
Or do you not use the Oxford comma because you think it’s archaic, unnecessary and annoying?

I can't be doing with these Jonny come lately Oxford comma nay sayers.
Harsh. So very harsh.
I have to use it for work.
But when I’m on my own time, I see where the wind takes me. That’s how I get my thrills!
I’m getting mega Jack schadenfreud watching Saturday Kitchen, she’s going to be fewmin! They weirdly chose not to ask Jack to join in with the vegan chat. Sarah Pascoe is doing a much better job of talking about (vegan) food, and it’s not even her ‘literal job’! Jack’s work husband, Sir Matt of the Forearms, seems to be coping quite well without his cheeky little puppyish partner. Terrible 
Didn't have to even check that my MP was on thereHope everything goes beautifully today @Walkdengirl

However I've just checked all the other constituencies in my county, and they all voted against. Utterly sickened. There are some fairly disadvantaged areas in the bigger towns, too. Hardly looking our for their constituents, are they.
Perhaps seeing what MR is doing & that author of the £20ish meals has done will help Jack rethink how she can positively and actively contribute to poverty. It might even make her relevant again in the process.
A very optimistic view, and it would involve a lot of hard work psychologically. She really does need to consider her future options & have a long term plan.

Jesus, this is beautiful. She’ll be going mental in that crappy little bungalow, just imagine. Her whole ‘niche’ is being shat on from so many angles and with such ease, kinda puts her whole ‘this requires some special knowledge and experience of real hardship’ claims to bed, no?

Both of these have to be JM on alt accounts.
CPAG are still around and doing great work.
Her uninformed followers make my head hurt.
