In her own words, she bought a sofa, went on holiday, paid back 'friends', says the judgement didn't cover the loss of wages (which to me is an admission she kept it all so she would be 'made whole') and also bought a carpet (WHY?? WHY WOULD YOU CARPET A RENTED HOUSE OUT YOUR OWN POCKET??). No mention of giving any of it to charity obvs.
Poverty lingers a septic wound, choleric, stenching, bursting rancid all over your Sunday best.
You jest at scars, that never felt a wound, I muttered to my phone screen as an avatar of a sneering man stared back, his grainy face positioned just to the left of his barbed jab about why a ‘best…
I can't see the cost of the milk jug, fancy bowl, cutlery or anything on her recipe?!
Also the irony of showing an 8p recipe with the fancyness of a heart shaped bowl and a cute little milk jug (non-triangulated)
I don't quite know what to say about the fact that she's earning commission on the ingredients in her recipes though?

How is this awkward for the poster in question? Hasn't Jack spent the past few days saying her stuff is being used by the 'wrong people' and that she's been the subject of abuse on account of it, and that's why she's no longer sharing the recipes, until it all dies down? Sounds a lot like being pilloried to me, so what's awkward about the person saying the same thing? Gah she's so stupid.
Kick me out guys but I actually like this recipe. Mine looks better than this though and 8p is bollocks.
Only Monroe can attempt to paint a weekend getaway to Paris as a traumatic event.In her own words, she bought a sofa, went on holiday, paid back 'friends', says the judgement didn't cover the loss of wages (which to me is an admission she kept it all so she would be 'made whole') and also bought a carpet (WHY??

Does anyone know what happened to the royalties and her former agent?
Christ, the only awkward one here is Jackie. Searching for her own name just so she go, “Needless to say, I had the last laugh”
Oh ffs, this has raised £410 already - that money could be used for FOOD!! https://www.gofundme.com/f/039tin-c...ign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all
You’ve got to give it to her: her PhDs might be fake, and her GCSEs fragmented, but she possesses a level of linguistic chicanery that few of us could dream of.In her own words, she bought a sofa, went on holiday, paid back 'friends', says the judgement didn't cover the loss of wages (which to me is an admission she kept it all so she would be 'made whole') and also bought a carpet (WHY??

It’s quite a skill to openly admit that you spunked an enormous settlement on nothing and yet somehow allow people to believe that you gave it all to charity (so that you can continue being seen as one yourself).
Some would call it chutzpah. Others criminal.
No Jack, you've just made it more awkward. For you.
People will just read that and think what a passive aggressive bellend.
Just read the guardian article. That bit about musty clothes... She's been watching "Parasite" hasn't she?
Poor people don’t need recipe books. Honest to god, they don’t.
She's a humourless bleep. If she was in NI she might be called a craic vacuum.
She’s coming across as so confused. Her whole schtick has been, “This is what I can make on £10 a week” and more recently her £20 a week cosplay. She’s been providing and making money out of these cheap recipes which is fine (except when she’s recently been pretending she’s on a budget) that’s been her thing. But now the argument on Twitter is that you can’t buy an egg for 2p or that sharing how to make a meal for 10p isn’t helpful, she suddenly doesn’t want her recipes shared. Only SHE can share them because for some reason she thinks her
According to her seminal work, Potatoes (as opposed to her semenal work, Lasagne), it took 3 years to get back "part" (unspecified) of what she was owed.
She also apparently lost 5 grand via phone hijacking last year. R Jackie just has no luck...
Oh the irony of showing an 8p recipe to help feed the poor out of the goodness of her heart..... I mean to earn her money.
Christ she's unbelievable. It's never for anyone else. It's always for her.
It's like donating a fiver to charity loudly and quietly asking for 4.99 in change.
Omg love the receipts thank you!In her own words, she bought a sofa, went on holiday, paid back 'friends', says the judgement didn't cover the loss of wages (which to me is an admission she kept it all so she would be 'made whole') and also bought a carpet (WHY??

Also the grip rods were very likely already there, and you’d probably spend more buying just one room of underlay than your fitter using theirs as they’ll buy it at trade? Even the banal gets lied about
