Thread title by guest herself, suggested by @allybongo and @YerDa. You win the satisfaction of victory, and a free replacement loft hatch.

Recap: Guest's in her Baby Reindeer era, blaming her absence and all past misdeeds on an unnamed stalker/hacker. Footy!Guest is also still in the picture. The canal and Twitter have spotted a few socks out and about lately, to the amusement of all. Meanwhile, we mithered over some past antics including the loft hatch shermozzle. We're also coming up to the second anniversary of gelato on The Per Rialto.

Yesterday she unlocked for a while, tweeting at Rishimate about "state-sponsored manslaughter" and again using the dead to score cheap political points. She also accused the Tories of using voucher schemes to line their own pockets, despite having repeatedly and publicly lied that she invented Healthy Start vouchers. Her sycophants and psychos (as she charmingly calls her fans) came out to fawn over her, however due to low engagement and the usual mockery she quickly locked down again. She's just woken up from her dino nap and is tweeting about how she should be entitled to PIP but doesn't dare apply because of the traumatic assessment process.

Still NO explanation regarding the Sue Lee funds and/or the VBI.

Maraming (patlang) salamat! Wiki on the pink button.
 
Getting PIP was an utter nightmare for me (still is, since I'll be up for renewal next year), and I am a full-time wheelchair user who needs regular in-home carers. And I still manage to do a part-time job thanks to understanding employers.

She can duck off with her ouchy shoulder or whatever it is she thinks entitles her to PIP. Nothing that I've ever seen her say has come anywhere close to suggesting that she meets any of the criteria.
 
Oh dear, does she and her made up ailments really think she's a voice needed in disability benefits entilement? o_O

She's an absolute gift to whoever she's against. 🤦‍♀️
There's an article on a conspiracy website somewhere which claims Jack is paid position to the left or something like that.

Maybe the Tories have let her onto Twixter again cos there's an election looming and they want to destroy the left's chances?

*removes tin foil hat*
 
duck off Jack indeed.
Have you had any help with the PIP application, I gather it’s a Kafkaesque nightmare but there are charities/CAB advisors who can help with it?

Without me railing, I haven't but that's also tied up in why dealing with DWP is something I'm not desperate to go through again. In between the body and mind ouchies 🙄, getting through the day sometimes is harder than it ought to be.

Well that's a lot less mad than most conspiracy theories.

I'd automatically not want to vote for anyone she's supporting 😐 , which is ridiculous and I'm often unpopular for saying many people against Jack are every bit as much of a tit as she is:LOL:.
 
So, many years ago I was in receipt of PIP, so I know what a dreadful and dehumanising process it can be.

But it's frankly irresponsible for a 'campaigner' with the 'Glastonbury size platform' she has to fuel the fear and distrust of the system (that rightly exists) when she could be signposting people to ways they can get help/amplifying actual activism/actually making a positive contribution rather than just ghouling for clicks and compounding the misery.

Yeah Jack, here’s the thing.

Just in the same way that this (bewildering and
😤”as that may be for you) does not automatically entitle you a mortgage

Turns out, making this shape with that very same hand (and posting a load of your usual fantasist woe is me histrionics) doesn’t automatically entitle you to PIP either.

Remember all the "Official prognosis: utterly fucked" shite from last year? I wouldn't be at all surprised if she'd applied for PIP then and been knocked back because she's a malingering Munchy head.

"I mostly eat with a spoon these days..." Yeah, because your entire culinary output is bowls of brown slop. You need a knife and fork about as much as you "need" another sideboard.
 
or even bleeping retweet the Martin-mate tweet she liked

Martin again with the sensible take on how to address news such as this. Guest could learn a lot from him, even if he does get to present HIGNFY and she doesn't :giggle:

Jack, since you're reading here, please, let us know what qualifies you to receive PIP. I'm sure the Twitter universe and the ✨ Comments Club ✨ would be more than willing to offer you some feedback on that information.
