Jack Monroe #94 It’s okay Jack, others have taken up the baton

[Montrachet]

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.

Thanks for referencing Brenda's Bangers - glad to see that I am not alone in feeling that they should be mentioned or shown at least once in every thread.

In other news, it's vegan day on Saturday Kitchen

I also noted that her Mom is on the show next week. It cannot be ruled out that Jack will be on an early train next Saturday - loitering at the Stage door.

"I don't use this word lightly"

duck off you pompous, patronising twit!

My god, she really is deluded enough to think her view of MR means something or is important in any way.

I was very wrong when I speculated this might be a wake up call for her.

This is a visual interpretation of how I imagine most of the Frauternity reacting to these type of posts. She is just so hollow and meaningless now though.

What I'd love to see is a cookbook written by her ACTUAL Mum.
The meals she used to put together for the family.
For the Dad who staggered in through the door smelling of smoke, for the dozens of foster kids, for the biological kids.
The family recipes that caused Jack to buy a Lasagne to stick her fingers into and marvel that there was mince in there.
Or a Mum and famous Aunt Helen collaboration of Northern Irish and Greek fusion food.
What a book that would be.

Stand back in amazement one and all.
Marcus, a young man who actually grew up in poverty, now an MBE, has built a massive movement that is actually making a difference.
But also, Jack pointed out that you need a tin opener to open cans (you usually don’t now but still, let’s not demean what a fabulous moment this was for those struggling & suffering).

Wait...what she fingered a lasagne? I thought it was just leaks. How did I miss this?

Why do her own followers burn her so badly this way!?!

I hate to say it but I think they’re easily impressed. Or fooled.

Didn't Jack say Aunt Helen was a bit dusty though, so might need a ouija board for her contribution?

Yes. She described in a somewhat grotesque fashion how she plunged her fingers through sticky layers. Her efforts at reproducing it basically involved a horse *ahem*. I'll leave someone else to elaborate on that!

She brings a whole new meaning to "finger food".

 

[GoLando]

And a book out soon, if Jack was planning to do - looks like she's too late

I do hope each recipe contains 80% tragic backstory, 15% superfluous language, and 5% eyelid sausage.

I've just been reminded of her fish finger lasagne during her cartoon filter period (8th Sept 2020 - 15th Sept 2020, RIP Comic Kitchen).

 

[FlowerOfTheEast]

Wasn't there a "Sausange" in one of the books as well?

A Finger Buffet!

This can’t be real, they are taking the piss!

She recommends using the cheapest sausages for it. They are raw.

Sorry to drag the past up, but this was a month ago.

Lol.

I looked at their page-they’re being serious! I know-hard to believe but this is the sort of shite people actually praise her for.

Lol.

Can’t wait. Truly, I really await the next phenomenon that blows every budget cookbook out of the water.
Bring it on, Jack !

I actually worked with someone like Jack. They did no work but spent a lot of time talking about writing reports, saying that other larger effective organisations were coming to him for advice and direction. It was all horseshit of course. No one believed him. I think he did though.

Yeah me too. She tried to get me to do all her work and made out what she did do was too difficult and specialised for me to understand. I used to think she spent all day watching tv. When she managed to scam her way into management she spent the day micro managing me. I lasted a few weeks after that . She is very jack like. You cannot question the lady no no no . Only sycophants allowed. I just cant do that . My face gives me away. I just cant see how people cant see through ms munroe. I suppose I used to follow her and not realise and just dip in for updates but the constant barrage of boring inane crap and stupid photos of herself were enough to drive the most trusting benefit of the doubt kinda person here surely?

Sorry if I missed this in the early threads way back in the distant past (March), but why on earth would anyone set up a GoFundMe, who take commission on every donation, when you could just tell people to donate to the charity direct (and they can also benefit from Gift Aid that way)??

She is SO DESPERATE to place herself at the centre of everything that she’s using her name and apparent celebrity to gain kudos for all the money donated in her name but depriving the charity of extra funds at the same time. It also means that the charity won’t have the data available to ask people for future donations.

I dunno but in one of my past jobs as a fundraiser I’d have actually been a bit peeved by that. Also I simply don’t believe she gave the money to them sorry but grifters gonna grift.

Enjoying seeing her hoisted by her own petard after being a gobby little madam to KGM.

 

[Candytuft]

She has been thoroughly shown up.
Jackolytes will still fawn and say ridiculous things. But so will the trolls who enjoy winding her up. The Jackotrolls.
That’s the price you pay for living your life online I suppose.
