Jack Monroe taking an absolute shoeing all over Twitter on account of her new Thrifty Kitchen offering being an absolute bin fire. HIlarious.

She’s now had food banks advising her publishes to remove some of its content because it’s genuinely harmful to people.

Stuff like if you do not have a tin opener use a hammer and knife.

Or, if you do not have a rolling pin freeze a big bottle of water and use that.

Guess what, Jack. People in food poverty can still afford tin openers and very rarely would they even think about needing a rolling pin.

She wouldn’t know that as she’s decided to play the character of a poor person based on what she has seen in the media and has made a career from it.

She’s the comfortable face of poverty for guardian readers. Why give that space to a genuine, working class woman when we can give it to middle class, twee Jack.

Utter scumbag.

The Alan Partridge-esquer settling of scores in the intro is cringe as well.

Also her Patreon scamming and tip jar rattling is finally gaining traction.

They are just the worst.
 
There’s always a distraction target. Migrants/ single mothers/ benefits cheats etc. Barely impacting the way anyone lives and usually among the most vulnerable and poorest.

It sickens me that people lap it up time and time again. People blame the tories, but they just do what they do and are an institution to protect themselves and their mates. I blame the feeble minded cretins who willing and unquestionably parrot all this. They take the easy narrative instead of the one that requires a bit more thought.

The amazing thing is the groomer, toilet, peado stuff with trans folk is literally the exact same rhetoric the right used against homosexuals a few decades ago until as usual society moved past their hate, and for power grabbing purposes the right have to pretend they don't hold it anymore. It's the same tactic, the very same and people are still stupid enough to fall for it and vote on it.
