Jack Monroe on BBC Question Time Watchalong 1/6/23

[Mrsoverall]

Thoughts and prayers for the sixth form student spragging (don't blame him, tbh) about the vaping at college

Quoting myself like a saddo, but on my bus to work there are MULTIPLE schoolkids vaping on the bus every day. The driver does NOWT
Eta I'm an old, old school cigarette smoker. I keep well away from people at my habit points(bus stops)

 

[bizwizz89]

Concentrating

Oh my Christ her lips are filled with more tit than she is!!

 

[IcanSpellBéchamel]

The reaction from the audience when she talked about her son having a vape in his blazer! That really didn’t go down well.

 

[RinsingHoops]

So she’s ratted her son out and claims she has emotional maturity. Riiiiight

 

[FlirtyThirty]

I just speed grunked this so fast I’ve give myself motion sickness

 

[shugabug23]

Is it sad that I’m reliving it second time round and enjoying it more? The comments here are still I’m less anxious this time though

 

[kachoochoo]

watching on a 50" telly rather than an 8" kindle fire really shows up how much that jacket needs dry cleaning

and I just gasped out loud again as she threw her son under the bus. He's 13 ffs!

Her son and his friends. Nice if their parents are watching.
Is it any wonder he seems to avoid her at all costs.

 

[kachoochoo]

thinking I might become a full time bow tie man stan

 

[RinsingHoops]

Well, that was boring af and now i remember why I stopped watching it. Would she have been paid for that? Was it worth the new boots. I think she made a few glib, superficial statements that sounded quite good but were ultimately meaningless. Bit like herself.

 

[IcanSpellBéchamel]

I bailed before the end. There’s only so much honking I can take!

 

[NellieBoo]

I missed the bit where she talked about her son and vaping because my elderly dog started doing her weird limping thing and I had to administer pain relief.
Why did she think it was ok to say that though? True or not it's put her son in a difficult position ON NATIONAL TELEVISION. Silly cow. And I say that as a parent of a now 18 year old who did waaaaaaaaay worse than vaping . But there are some things you don't just announce to make yourself look like the cool mum.

 

[MsGilmore]

It was very uneventful. She had it easy! It was a small, calm audience. It never once got remotely heated.

 

[Potatoes O’Houlihan]

She’s gained a chunk of followers on Twitter off the back of that load of ole crap. So so boring

 

[HotesTilaire]

They’ll be off again soon when she starts posting thirst shots or arguing with people who agree with her

 

[StatusWoe]

SHE DIDN'T EVEN DO A POWER STANCE.

Sorry for the shouting. I'm just disappointed.

She can’t stand up in them sock boots. Go well, tenderpal

 

[StatusWoe]

She can’t stand up in them sock boots. Go well, tenderpal

But...but...there wasn't even a ''thank you so Fiona much, Fiona''.

12 minutes in before the first “ people have died “ from Jack . Did she make any point then that wasn’t parroting what the others had just said ?

Hence the notes

 

[Foxvint]

Thanks so much to everyone who reported for duty. I couldn't watch cos I can't afford to replace my telly when I karate kick it but I get the jist. I'm sad for her son again. She spreads his business like jam.

Mad how a polite 'you did great, you must come back again' has turned into a hard invite to return. What a wally. Also I've decided Nimco's a frau. She heeded our warning and threw a sickie or something.

And she's talking in stolen memes again- that thing about if you see someone stealing baby formula no you didn't has been around since David Cameron times. The reason she didn't say it is cos she knew some of the audience wouldn't agree- a coward aswell as an unoriginal little beg.
