Okay, so I did a perfunctory grunk yesterday because busy and assumed that she was trying to prove a link between poverty and poor health. Which the phrase reinventing the wheel seems both appropriate and inadequate for. Now I've had a more thorough grunk and I have absolutely no idea what she's trying to prove, can some frau enlighten me? It seems to be that because the American health system is horrible and ruinously expensive the NHS is a good thing and should be the main campaigning point for Labour in the next general election? Is that it? And because she has had a lot of treatment on the NHS she's worth the cost of a house? Can we now cash in our medical treatments for structures? If so I'm pretty sure I'm at least owed a small shed.

Perfunctory Grunk is my band name.

QMLAN Jack has had a Whole Damned House worth of medical attention, whilst paying FA into the system. No wonder she's F'in happy.

I'm very grateful to the NHS, it has served me well and I wouldn't be alive today without the massive amount of care I have received...probably a Whole Damned Street of Houses worth of care.

However my brother has not been so fortunate. Due to delays and cancellations, poor diagnosis, and lack of follow on care, what started as a break in a bone in his foot (not all 22 bones though) he is now facing amputation of his leg.

The NHS is massively under pressure, and mistakes are inevitably being made. It is far from perfect.

My sister in Australia is gobsmacked by the delays and cancellations of appointments that we in the UK face.

The differences are certainly big in that regard. Daughter was recently diagnosed with autism, which, whilst not a surprise, caused a big MH crash. GP was able to get her on a mental health plan, and she started seeing a psychologist within a fortnight. All free, in part due to me being on a low income, and her being under 16. It's not a perfect system by any stretch, and our isolation makes things harder too, there's a saying 'when in pain, get on a plane', but Jack really has no clue about any of this kind of thing. The idea she could somehow 'save' the NHS (or whatever the heck she's trying to do) is just so ridiculous.

my kid is knee deep in uni applications atm. Now, they’re not a data squig so lucky we’ve not had to consider it but the undergraduate courses in Data Science and so on are really hard to get into! Bristol was a*aa as a minimum and most entrants have A*A*A*

And proper big boy jobs in data analysis can be very well paid simply because they require the very best people to do it.

I wonder how many of those currently slogging through their personal statement are writing about their funny pattern-spotting brain and using this emoji 🤓?

the sheer arrogance of it!!

I wonder how many applicants put down that they will need time put aside so that they can to get to know the cleaning staff?

So ruddy bloody bravely arthritically bedridden in the face of trollthreatz. And her sea air kumquat Mick Hucknall’s Merkin perm was still more useful to the NHS or any meaningful discourse than this latest moronic shite.

Mildly pedantic point of order: as the NHS is primarily paid for out of general taxation, Jack does pay something in, unless she doesn't buy anything which attracts VAT (as an example).

You're right, the amount of VAT that Jack has paid on her overpriced and overbought crap and expensive furniture that's filling the bungamansion would probably make up for all the income tax she's avoided.

Talking of overpriced and unnecessary items, I wonder what she's done with that huge fridge she paid thousands for, that wouldn't fit in her kitchen so had to stay in the middle hall?

Why does everything she buys have to be oversized? Huge table, super king bed, massive fridge, gargantuan sideboards. All a bit much for a tiny smol pixie, she must feel like a borrower in that huge house/bungalow/retirement home.

Mrs Gloss Jack is one of her more tragic iterations. It's like watching a toddler put lipstick on, except immeasurably less cute. Friendless behaviour.

There is a lot to dislike about Jack Monroe but… no that’s it actually. There’s a lot to dislike about her.

I'd fake my own death and run away to an uninhabited island if I'd subjected myself to 1% of the self-inflcited humiliation she's managed.

How she doesn't wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat utterly horrified by herself I'll never know.

I imagine the fact that they're more expensive is the prime motivation for that, Mancy-Bee.

Most tragic part of all of it is that it was done to wind up SB's step mum.
This adult thought getting her hair frazzled, putting on lipstick and posing for photos in her bra would show her rival how much better she was than her.
Tragic twit.

Imagine the screenshots in SB's stepmum's group chat. I bet that WhatsApp group was on fire 😂.

Imagine someone trying to one-up you and it's that badly dressed crackpot in her bra, comedy clown wig and eyeshadow applied with her feet.
