I like to imagine every time Jack sees my avatar she shouts “I DON’T EAT SUGAR”

I totally agree and I hope things are ok with you now. x
Personally I do have some “you shouldn’t have kids if you can’t afford them” feelings towards people in Jack’s situation but not people like yourself. I think because my timeline and Jack’s are the same in many ways. I remember desperately wanting a baby in my early 20s, but I held off wanting to make sure I could give them the best life possible.
Now I’m 32 (which isn’t too old to have a kid, though you wouldn’t think that from the way Jack bangs on about probably not ever having another). I’ve had to make some painful choices at times always thinking about that theoretical future kid’s welfare. I grew up with very young and very poor parents so I didn’t want that for my kids. There are times where I worry maybe the best years to have one passed me by already. So yeah, speaking as someone in my position there is an element of that feeling of annoyance at someone like Jack for this. Like ok so we were sensible and made sacrifices but you could just do what you want and then act the victim never thinking about the kid.
This feeling of annoyance does not all apply to every person who is poor and has kids, just people like Jack who are irresponsible and nasty.
I'm truly honoured! Thankyou very much
good! you usually finish me off al!
It’s his face as well! Proper cannat believe some twit’s counting bread. Hooted!good! you usually finish me off al!
I’d like to think she looks at my avatar and thinks “what the duck is that bowl of slo- oh it’s one of mine”
Does no one ever think to question Jack about this frankly bizarre behaviour? Probably everyone who takes an interest in politics gets angry or feels emotional about issues that matter to them but working yourself into such a state that you reduce yourself to the state of an unhinged animal or a “an absolutely devastated frustrated furious howling wreck” in Jack parlance is not normal behaviour by any standard. I mean could you imagine watching Question Time or Newsnight and a politician saying "The actions of this government have reduced me to a devastated, furious howling wreck" and everyone acting like it's normal. Who does she hope to convince with this hysteria? Does she imagine the Tories will start being nicer so as not to upset her?

Dear All,
I thought you would appreciate these bizarre concoctions that these Guardian readers have been eating. I’m amazed Jack hasn’t tried to replicate them or has claimed them as her own...especially the ‘smoked seafood and dried fruit’, the ‘sad pasta’ or the ‘tomato soup pizza’.

You know when Ant & Dec go undercover to catch someone out? How great would it be if they caught JM in her web of lies?
One can dream.
One can dream.
honestly, whenever I look at this pic, I can just hear it! "EH?!"
“an absolutely devastated frustrated furious howling wreck”.
Hyperbole or what
Why does she write such over dramatic bollocks.
She can't decide if she wants to be tiny, fragile and weak, having to be helped up off floors and what not
Or a bleeping bodybuilding pescatarian (bleeping Catalina wine mixer!!!) carrying a Cotswold sideboard under each arm with her 60kg whoopsie stickered produce on her back and a bleeping cast iron mango thingermajig between each toe
Exhausting

Never mind a cookery show she’s going to find herself on channel 5 in a show about hoarders if she carries on spouting this nonsense.
That's just the best breakfast. On soda bread.
