the epitome of cosplaying
Still not the one I'm looking for but relevant nonetheless:
This makes my bumhole pucker up in mortification.
If you are a secular converted Jew, would you do 25 hours of fasting for Yom Kippur? I don't think there is any harm in exploring other religions and seeing things from the perspective of others but, this is next level. She could have just said she's interested in learning more about the religion. Might have lead to more content for her column and BBC The Social 
'Vonny's Lives'
Enjoyed Jay Rayner getting up in her secular Jewish niche this weekend: https://www.theguardian.com/food/20...e-claudia-roden-majestic-book-ofn-jewish-food
Looking forward to elements of this article making its way into her cosplay just like Unorthodox did.

Oh was this the one where the person replied “Exactly, Jewish, so white then.”??
Remembwr seeing things like that around the time she got kicked out of/ abandoned her anti racist Scotland page
If she wasn't vegan, vegetarian, vegan I could see her re-enacting the beginning of the Mrs Maisel pilot episode, where Midge bursts into the butcher shouting 'We did it, we've got the coming Rabbi for dinner at Yom Kippur. I need your best brisket!'
I can't even remember tbh! Meanwhile, here's the one I was actually looking for, Vonny dressing up as "the badass woman who saved the Jews" after self identifying as Jewish for all of 5 minutes.
Bonus extra:
Her son would get the tit kicked out if him at my old primary school if he proffered outbursts like that.
This tweet predates her 'Jewishness' and says she's done genealogical research into her (paternal) family, directly contradicting the 'lots to unpick' tweet.
(Apparently her family owned the whole of the west end of Glasgow, or something).
ETA "the Partick of Byre" in the first screenshot is a nonsensical phrase. Does she mean the byres of Partick? Who knows. When she first started working through in Glasgow, she described everywhere in the west end, from Queen Margaret Drive to Park Circus, as "Kelvinside".
Further ETA - sorry about this, uh, ~granular~ take on the geography of Glasgow, it's just she was acting like the expert in all things Glasgow when she started working here and was getting really basic stuff completely wrong. Park Circus isn't Kelvinside you dolt.

Classic Vonny.
Aww duck sake did you nip a boy at your gran’s caravan too Vonny?! DID YOU?! Constant bloody fantasies.
I'll take 'This Literally Never Happened for £200, Gary'.
For some reason this is the stuff that has made me laugh the most. Your family owned the West End? DID YE AYE? But you don’t know anything about anyone beyond your immediate grandparents? It’s like the kind of chat you‘d get in a gaff at 5am at a Glasgow uni after party back in the day.
One of my theories about the Judaism thing since we know that so much of what she does is related to her aesthetic:
Perhaps she believes that her dark striking looks and bold features fit with the (entirely stereotypical) view of what Jewish women/Jewish beauty look like? Not agreeing with this stereotype at all but this struck me when she first starting going on about it. As a child, I found the Jewish faith fascinating (and still do) and I find so much about the culture appealing. But any conversion to a religion is surely based on a discovering of faith and, in this case, a relationship with God? My bet is that she will re-convert back to Catholicism since they are the group that statistically suffer the most hate crime in Scotland (I’m not a Catholic btw).
I don't have the screenshot to hand right now, but a few years ago on Facebook - long before her non-conversion - she described one of her children as having [SPOILER antisemitic content] "Jew-curls".
So basically she meant to say I’m not jewish at all but might be somewhere down the like so what’s the difference
. Arent we bleeping all then .Purimspiel? Don'tcha mean PurimspLIES?!
She must be completely exhausted being all these different people. Exhausts me reading about it.
her family owned the West End is a belter though

Can confirm she has introduced herself in a professional capacity as a “pagan secular Jew”
