She really has massive Twitter addiction doesn't she? I honestly think Twitter has a lot of problematic users who have convinced themselves they are "working" whilst wasting hours on Twitter. Even when they are being abused and trolled they still log on. Never mind all these other ailments her Twitter addiction is the one to be dealt with

Interesting snippet from an interview Daddy gave in 2012. I've read it before but only just noticed these 2...

1.All four children are named. So much for Jack's claim she has to protect them.
2. He mentions that his family are from NORTHERN Cyprus. All politics aside, when Jackie went there on her holidays to the 'family village' there wouldn't have been much 'Greekness' around.
I know the family would still consider themselves Greek, but the village and all of her 'experiences' would have a very much Turkish flavour...

This is from 2004!
 
I don't have high hopes that today will lead to lasting change, unfortunately. She's just too skilful at playing the smol ickle victim and there's too many gullible twats on twitter. Most of the criticism will be written off as trolling.

Still, I take a bit of comfort in the fact she's getting blowback for all the times she's co-opted marginalised identities for her own gain.

Have #hardlefttwitter seen her Express column that she wrote when CAROLE MALONE WAS AWAY? That would make my evening if she got dragged for the shite she was spouting about the Queen and Jamie Oliver 😂

Two book advances and a six month deal with Del Monte but your rent didn’t go out? Sure, Jan. Sounds like some egregious, tip-jar rattling bullshit to me.

Not to mention the GQ article (which would’ve been £££) and the Linda McCartney paid post. She’s just on the beg again, no bleeping shame.

ETA: her Patreon money alone would be enough to cover the rent.
 
Never forget the glorious time she quit Twitter for good!!!

Jack Monroe quits Twitter 'for the good of their mental health'

Author and journalist Jack Monroe has quit Twitter, writing a lengthy post explaining their history with the platform and saying their mental health must come first.

spoiler alert: it lasted as long as her veganism

Ooooh, and this was when she blamed losing her book deal on transphobia! "When I came out as non-binary (genderfluid/queer) it was quite unheard of in mainstream media and there was an inevitable circus around it. I gave interviews hoping it would braden understanding and give other genderqueer people a vouce. In return I lost a £30k book deal, had to crowdfund that book (a process which has completely done me in)"

I find the huge ’pat on the back’ she is getting on twitter fascinating. It really shows how unthinking so many of the people who think that are open minded, fact finding and intelligent are!

These people haven't looked for a single fact. As previously mentioned on here privatisation of school dinners was introduced many governments ago. Once the main company and the Government saw what was happening they responded.

The vouchers were due to be introduced anyway but in the short time scale they were told schools would close...reminder 8pm at night....something was produced and sent out. The boxes are shameful.

The ease with which this cook has gas lit people and taken all the credit without people questioning anything is actually frightening.

The lack of critical thinking of twitter is staggering!

Yes!! This. Exactly-it’s like Trump & how people just buy into utter bullshit & use no critical thinking whatsoever. Drives me insane.
PS it’s not me either-am vegan but I don’t interact with her on Twitter.
