As to being unable to pay a gas bill as a successful freelancer due to not getting paid on time... there is insurance for this.

you heartless bastard. take insurance out of your mouth, because this aint it, PAL. someone as poor as jack can't have insurance. instead she has butter soft leather leggings which she can sell as an insurance if she really needs to.

Btw have I missed how we know her lawyers (Mark mate and the paralegals) didn’t get paid for the KH case please?

Jack it think claimed it was pro bono, but it looked more like no win no fees because costs were awarded against KH, who went in to an IVA and, according to Jack, the costs were not paid. I am not sure how sure how an IVA works, so it's possible at the time Jack was telling the truth.

ETA And there are other ways to ruin your credit rating. ETA again, many of which are totally avoidable.

How gauche of me. Perhaps she could do something more traditionally pov-esque and simply place a wager at the turf accountant on whether her agent would pay her or not.

Thank you Vali! I should adjust my statement to say “her lawyers potentially didn’t get paid in full”. I’m sure they will have been able to recover some of the costs via the IVA. As far as I understand it, the function of an IVA is to work out who all the creditors are, what they’re owed, what needs paying first (eg are any of the creditors on the brink of bankruptcy because of the monies owed? Are they businesses with insurance for these things or individuals etc etc), how much capital is actually available which will then lend itself to settlement agreements etc. an exercise of damage limitation I suppose.

I don’t actually know though.

No win no fee pro bono MarkMate Lewis her “lawyer who didn’t get paid what they were owed” would have ended up MASSIVELY out of pocket anyway, because he will have paid the two barristers who represented her, and then seemingly due to the Hopkins IVA will have been unable to recoup more than a small portion of those costs.

Markmate seems almost as much of an insufferable self-publicist as his worthy client in the case, but you can see why he wasn’t racing over from 1, Israel Street to defend his celebrity client in Sue Lee Daubney Fox

I’m pretty sure she said she was too traumatised by the pov rather than too poor to take out insurance. Her usual tricksy language.

There's another one on the bottom right. I swear it has a nose.

Just looked a little more closely and then crossed myself.
Whatever the duck that is, needs to be regarded as a slur against bella Italia (the country, not the 'in restaurant parlance' chain). No. NO.

That was for all her bungamansion home contents. Hence her devastation and howling all over the internet at the burglars who kept nicking it in multiple burglaries.

Luckily for her they were kindly burglars who returned the things they stole (eg DEAD grandad’s le creuset), as those things were pictured in her bungsmansion after she said the burglars had nicked them.

Edit: and luckily for the kindly burglars, Essex PoPo turned a blind eye to their misdeeds as there were no burglaries recorded on her street during the time period she claims to have been burgled twice.

And to be fair, if the burglars did come round they’d probably just assume the place had been ransacked anyway

Jack Monroe #483 The plans are going well, it’s the execution that seems to be lacking

In a terrible frame of mind and then I see that Jack is back... that is not going to help. Anyhoo, in the latest edition of 'make it make sense' , on what bleeping planet can she lecture Annunziata Rees Mogg about poor people being too depressed etc to batch cook, and then suggest that the...

That's excellent - because I have a plan to commit charity fraud to the tune of £999,999. Suck on that, squiggo! If you get any over that, and donate to me, you can claim I’m a charity and journos have receipts and to stop bullying you you’re a proper lying narcissist Unwell.

For once, Jack’s not lying. KH entered an IVA and made agreements with her creditors from the case (and elsewhere) so she could avoid bankruptcy. It’s all over the press at the time.

Why does she make all her photos so dark? It makes them look even worse

Apropos of nothing (other than nothing ever being her fault), have just suddenly remembered the time @Veronicaaa was suffering through a sniffing and honking radio phone-in and Jack came out with 'that's just everybody blaming Peter to blame Paul"

I've said this before and will doubtless say it many times again, but how Jack hasn't been unalived by enraged Italians* is beyond my comprehension.

*Or Greeks, Russians, Germans, Spaniards, French etc - all brutally destroyed culinary cultures are interchangeable, dear ones.

EDIT because auto 🥕 changed "unalived" to "unsliced", and it seemed dangerously, threateningly, determinedly specific.

i may have mentioned this before, but one of my siblings (notoriously haphazard in their approach to life and stuff) had their double garage broken into; with bikes and golf clubs stolen.
When the police came, the lady policewoman softly, gently said to me (i was house-sitting at the time and made the report) "they've not half made some mess in here"
to which i'd to respond "this is actually what it looks like all the time, the burglars have literally just lifted the things of value".
It looked like it had been ransacked by badgers, to put it plainly.

How rude. Everyone knows badgers just sit politely eating mashed potato.
