if you search "thrifty kitchen" on twitter and keep the search to "top" (dependent on your algorithm, of course, but it's a bbc food tweet from 18th january 2021), it is just a short scroll to find that episode of dr rupy's iplayer show where jack sits there dressed as dennis nilsen, honking away about the poverty and tinned tomatoes while rupy patiently makes quite a nice looking jambalaya :D

She’s had messages from people saying she’s saved them £100 a week off their food bill?

bollocks has she
 
I’m starting to know how Jack feels. I only talk anonymously about my alcoholism but The Gift Company STILL SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS IS NOT APPROPRIATE!! 15,000 emails in my inbox and this is the only one I’ve looked for seen. They want me DEAD!

May I respectfully slightly disagree with this?I personally enjoy the little meanders off topic.

Im suspect we all have our reasons for being here beyond disliking grifters and hating slop.


I personally have had a year of really dark times and this thread has helped me through that immensely by giving me a distraction, but also I laughed a lot and learnt so much.

I have learnt a lot from you about addiction and AA and also just general how to navigate life with trauma.

Ive also learnt new recipes, got great book recommendations, I’ve actually bought a bag based on a canal recommendation and enjoyed the nonsense, walri And even the Motley Crew Schlong.

I do think the Jack stuff is super important and obviously purpose of thread and there are many in the canal contributing amazing and eye opening content.

However I would be a tad sad if all the side pumbles disappeared.

Hope I haven’t offended you, I am a massive people pleaser so am already anxiously overanalysing pressing post!

100%. And to add to that- if people come here and JUST see Fraus (apparently) laying into Jack- even if it DOES get her grift seen through quicker- then it does indeed look like either a 'hate' forum (to Jack and her ilk & as described by the muchly paranoid), or something based wholly around investigative journalism (like Molly's blog or the other recent analysis) which is great- but not what I thought this forum was about.
Things like comparing house sizes, or people's shopping/ poverty experiences seem ENTIRELY relevant to me: in such as they show a normal person perspective and how far from 'average' Jack is despite all her claims to unusual poverty.
It still helps to show her as the grifter she is, but also helps to humanise the people she's so hellbent on demonising, if you get what I mean?
It's just a lot of people having a laugh and sharing experiences, with the commonality that we'd all like Jack revealed as the non-saintly figure she truly is.

The only way that could happen was if one of her recipes gave them food poisoning so all they ate for a week was dry toast and bananas.

If that is true then they'd have to have been uncommonly stupid (respectfully) to start with.

All day I've been getting 'Google Suggested' articles about Martin Lewis. :rolleyes:

Thread title nomination 😏

ETA I'm sure she just deleted the "I don't owe you tit, pal" tweet
It also doesn't sit right she spun it as simply "campaigner of the year" but didn't explain the nomination category or signpost the awards website, just the link to vote, very sharp practice

I don’t get how she even qualifies though. What exactly has she done for LGBTQ+ equality in the last year? Or ever, for that matter???

she’s very online, and that’s enough for Pink News.
But you can add onto that that by being relatively high profile, with a trans flag and a vague trans identity, and yet not actually articulating any position on the trans debate, she’s one of the few online trans activists who hasn’t actually actively damaged the movement by actually saying what the trans rights movement wants.

Ever = Slept with some rich Lesbians. Came out as non-binary. Reaffirmed her Lesbian Status while publicly drooling over (and allegedly shagging) multiple men. Um... that's it, isn't it? Oh yeah- did a highly photoshopped DIVA shoot, pretending to be Ruby Rose/ Orange is the New Black, simped at wassisface, blocked people.

I note she's left the comments open on that Pink News tweet, rather than restricting them to the ✨comments club✨

Trying to drown out criticism with a flood of positive replies? I also note she didn't tag in Pink News, which seems a bit rude, since it's their awards.

Everyone voting for her instead of the actual campaigners in that link need to give their heads a wobble.

I'm not Pink News' target audience so I don't feel comfortable voting.

Neither are most of the people voting for Jack 🤷‍♀️ Go for it.

There is nothing wrong with eating avocado if you are type 2. It's low carb and has fibre. There's a moral issue with regards to its production in Mexico and association with cartel violence though.

I'm happy to post a giant box of Australian avocados to Tattle HQ for distribution or collection. Avocados for everyone: no cartels involved in their production. I may even leave some at Jack's door, next to the soap and soup

it’s not worth voting at all. It’s all bullshit. The goal is engagement, not actually gauging popularity. The whole reason places like pinknews will put divisive people in their categories is because they win when their fans are mobilised to vote for them, AND when their detractors are mobilised to vote against them. It’s all total bullshit, and it doesn’t matter one jot whether Jack comes first or last. In fact, any evidence of people voting against her from here will just support her claims to victimhood
 
New thread. Comes with a free copy of Thrifty Kitchen!

Jack Monroe #403 It’s hard to believe anything Jack Monroe says anymore

Well done to @People-huv-tae-know for the thread title! Words from a blue tick on Twitter. In the last thread, Jack’s recent claims of attempted ‘identity theft’ were further discussed. Hold my tumble drier fluff and light a tin can candle - there’s only a bladdy publishing date for Thrifty...
