As Jack would say, “Allow me to briefly explain”…
That article was published in February 2013. Her teacher didn’t actually start telling schoolgirl Jack she was only good for flipping burgers until 2015.
Jack didn’t actually start stealing food to survive during THE GREAT POVERTY (TM) 2011-2013 until 2019, which then advanced into “out of bins” in approx 2021-2022.
See also: wasn’t actually evicted for the first time in THE GREAT POVERTY (TM) 2011-2013 until Greenbelt 2018, and forever after, again increasingly exaggerated so by early 2022 it’s multiple times.
Finally: see also, the perennial tale of the plucky single mother raising a child ALONE throughout this terrible time
*ETA not suggesting for a second LJC is in any part responsible, just the years timeframe, that’s all. Jack got going in Spring 2017 with her “can’t pay the rent etc etc” and then really kicked into gear with her reprehensible lurid lies from early 2018-2020. Since then it’s for the most part been exaggerated maintenance of the same old tit (unless there’s some horrific event at the forefront of the news she can jump on and claim she’s also a victim)

It was clearly beneath her. A job that would be a dream for lots of graduates, who’ve studied journalism for three years and got into £50k of debt, wasn’t good enough for Jack. It’s the Guardian or nothing.
I remember her being all smug that she’d been up the night before reading up on media law and stuff, acting like she’s so clever and doesn’t need to study like a normal person. It got handed to her in a PR stunt for the paper, not because she’s some extraordinary talent. And yet again she wasted an opportunity.
I love how she revises her history more drastically in increments as time moves forward. She is able to FOLD the space time continuum. Jack “Minkowski” Monroe, they call her.

Hear me out, I think the memoir will be the final nail in the coffin of her downfall. We all know she won’t be able to pass up the opportunity to embellish and outright lie about her life. The memoir will actually penetrate the audience of Hay festival goers who go on Twitter once a year. I don’t even think people will need to compare it to her blog posts and press articles. She’ll say something on page 4 that she will contradict on page 90. The “pretend pov” thing doesn’t seem to be top of the list of grievances for people. However, seeing it all there in print, while people are suffering terribly in the cost of living crisis, idk I just feel this will upset a lot of people.
ETA: when I say downfall I don’t want Jack to STOP BREATHING. I just want her to stop getting money for nothing when 90% of us have to get up and go to work each day, many of us with physical and mental health issues.

I truly believe she will need to get a full time job within the next five years and it’s going to be delicious

Such mould and damp she was still ill six years later? I doubt it. I’ve been very very poorly in the past with pneumonia, coughing up blood and blood pressure through the floor and insane temperature but a night on fluid and anti-b drip, followed by two simultaneous courses of double strength antibiotics and I recovered. Was I still dying six years later. No.
No fridge? Really? Sounds like bullshit to me!!
And thank you for your lengthy delves into the lies.

Incredibly, the column to spout off utter nonsense predated her actually getting the job (tho she kept the column after she got the job there)
Even more incredibly, she seems to have got the column on the strength of her insufferable THE WORLD IS GOING MAD incessant blustering old fart letters to “the newspaper”, though I can’t help thinking Big D exchanged a special handshake with someone down the Lodge
to get his insufferable daughter to stop writing tit to the newspaper every single day if they agreed to pay her a pittance to limit her to writing one pile of tit a week.She blew off the newspaper when the Guardian came calling.
I bet you could hear the party all the way across Southend the day they “let her fly” and she became someone else’s problem. FOISTED!
ETA I just read @witchofwestbyfleet post. For those who haven’t seen it, here’s the 2015 piece where she chucked the massive tantrum cos they published a reader’s letter she didn’t like (it’s the source of excerpt above)
Dear Mr Farrington, The Mail believes oral sex and Pringles give you cancer. Maybe you shouldn't believe what they write about me either.
Dear Editor, It appears that your correspondent P. Farrington in Tuesdays Letters page has fallen foul of the first rule of Common Sense and Decency that is, do not believe a word that...

I wonder what happened to the column. If she kept that and built up some experience she could have taken freelance writing on the side.Incredibly, the column to spout off utter nonsense predated her actually getting the job (tho she kept the column after she got the job there)

ETA: I can’t even comprehend having as little ambition as her. She has been given chance after chance on a plate and just pissed them up the wall.

The no carpets/fridge/light bulbs/heat/whatever lie genuinely boils my piss.
I've just had a massive rant and spoilered it because it's a bit me me me but her bleeping Dickensian idea of poverty just enrages me. She has no idea. None.
I grew up in poverty with a mother even less interested in me than Jack is with SB.
I was very lucky that my adoptive mum (my great aunt) saw what was happening and took my mother to court to save me from a grim situation. The court said I shouldn't live with my mother (that's how bad it was) but did give her visitation rights.
She was very poor (as the entire family was, but she was also an indolent neglectful twit), lived in a council house. There were no carpets. No heating. No washing machine. Nothing new, ever. Everything she ever bought me (very little) was from a second hand shop. She tried to pick me up from school with a can of lager in her hand and another in her pocket (seems relevant, since Guest also claims to be an alcoholic).
This isn't a pity party. As I said, I was saved from that horror, but we were still poor as tit. I didn't really realise until I went to uni and saw how middle class families live
. My adoptive mum had three jobs at once my entire childhood to support us. She is the opposite of Guest, warm, loving, hard working, funny, giving and generous to a fault. I was still almost always the poorest kid or the one without the stuff others had. She couldn't afford to send me on a school trip but because she worked at the school the teachers had a whip round so I could go.
I only share this because it bleeping winds me up beyond all belief to see someone whose middle class parents can and no doubt did bail her out of endless tit, someone who is so scarred by poverty she can wear a bleeping SEVEN GRAND WATCH, cosplay her imagined Dickensian version of lives like mine with no idea.
She has no bleeping clue what that kind of start in life does to your confidence, let alone anything else. Anyway I've got a great job now and I'm drinking a nice bottle of wine and I'm nothing but grateful for everything I've been given which is more than can be said for that lying bleep.

Same, we had fridge/carpets/heat but my Dad never gave my Mum a penny after they split up and there were times she’d have to miss meals to feed me. The fact that guset bangs on about being pov when she had a fairly wealthy family to fall back on drives me insane. True poverty is having no safety net.The no carpets/fridge/light bulbs/heat/whatever lie genuinely boils my piss.

Firstly. Masonic Mither? I assume that’s speculation on your part but it would make so much sense!
Secondly, who the hell is so entitled as to have a public rant about a previous employer who they binned off, reversing the narrative so that it’s the employer’s fault? Who would be that complacent, resentful and obtuse?

They probably couldn't wait to get rid of her. They most likely pushed her out of the door. Just like the Fire Service did.

Actually to be honest I can see now why she didn’t continue the column. She literally cannot write.Incredibly, the column to spout off utter nonsense predated her actually getting the job (tho she kept the column after she got the job there)

Exactly, and nothing screams "safety net" more than giving up a £27k (or whatever it was) job. I don't believe that story either, I'm a civil servant and in my experience the entire public sector is incredibly accommodating of any protected characteristic, which pregnancy and maternity is.
Guest thinks that because she hasn't lived like Leggy and the other people whose circles she desperately wants to be part of, she's horribly deprived. She's bleeping full of it.

I’ve literally worked since I was 15 and I’ve had some terrible jobs but I didn’t have the luxury of just walking out as I’m sure neither have you.

Yep, to be clear, it’s total speculation and I have literally zero evidence whatsoever, other than what I know from reading stuff about/by fine upstanding pillar of the community Big D.
Just makes a lot of sense to me. But again, pure speculation!
