cook and instead spend their money on crappy, overpriced, processed food and ready meals.
Cue outrage.
But...ermmm...she's absolutely, 100% spot on, isn't she?

She's also on the committee that refused the new catering arrangements for the lords as it endangered their 260,000 champagne budget.
There are constant functions taking place in the House of Lords to encourage and support UK business and industry - I've been to several and so, I imagine, have you. Of course they need a f**king Champagne budget. Let's not be so childish.
cheaply these firms can prepare food at hideously low prices and with the minimum effort required.
On the odd occasion that I can't be arsed to cook and have nipped out for a microwave dinner, I've often thought how much it would cost to buy the raw components and do it myself.
On cost alone, it's a total no brainer :shrug:
And I'd probably also suggest that "the poor" are also going hungry as they're having benefits removed by JC staff, who are incidentally on bonuses to do so, wrongly in some cases.
The fact remains it's a monumentally silly and electorally unhelpful thing to say which only goes to reinforce the pretty valid impression people already have that the tories are happier seeing people starve than compromise on the quality of their sparkling grape beverages.
ingredients - mechanically-recovered meat, skin, fat, connective tissue etc - and using cheap additives (sugar, salt, flavour enhancers, thickening agents, rusk) to bulk the thing out and make it taste acceptable. In terms of health and nutrition, they're appalling value.
A simple inability to do so or unable to cope with the costs of running certain utilities?
Any person can cook to a degree.
Take a look at these.. 89p for a variety of prepared meals ?

There's more issues here than just knowing how to cook.
the point about the poor not knowing how to cook.
I'd imagine that went down about as well as the porridge.
Very little of that is stew. It's mostly cheap carbohydrate.
cereals they cannot afford and which are bad for them
than actually pay attention to the fact that the woman was absolutely correct. Thus, it becomes impossible to improve anything because people are so keen to be clever and take cheap shots that saying anything true and useful becomes politically impossible. Sad.
until they can afford to feed , clothe and educate them, as we dont need more poor uneducated kids now we have eastern europeans to do our menial jobs for lower pay and much better standards.
unfortunately the poor know they pick up more benefits for having kids so have them then feed them cheap **** and spend the benefits of fags , booze and widescreen tv's and the kids just clog up our benefits and prisons..
It might not be the most exciting breakfast in the world, but still preferable to using a food bank
then do mid level work on the side or run a nice little home business so they can be home for the kids in the afternoon
to the percieved comfort of their social gatherings while sipping on champagne.
As an example. If the old bird put in a regular shift at St Botolphs and used her influence to help and communicate at the right level, she'd probably get a far better reception.
im hoping with interest it should be Champagne by NYE imo I'll pop back in and ask how my investment is going
I saw a piece this morning that construction firms are having to pay portuguese brickies a grand a week to fulfil construction contracts.
advice from people who know better than you do. What the poor 'warm to' is entirely irrelevant. Clearly they do not know best and should learn to do what they're told and maybe they wouldn't be so f**king poor.
I fail to see why good advice should only be heeded if accompanied by empty gestures. Besides, there'll always be some chippy c**t on hand to say why the person giving the advice is a hypocrite. This is the problem: people are so obsessed with pont scoring that nothing useful ever gets achieved. It's a recipe for inertia.
Now :-
um monte de dinheiro

that their opinion is worth as much as Lady Jenkin's opinion, though.
Had they been taught that some people know best then there wouldn't be any outrage and things might change for the better.
or also good for flapjacks plus the poor could buy cheap beef mince, mix in some oats to bulk it, some fine diced onion, pepper n salt and an egg yolk and make there own nutritious tasty burgers imo
of the ****, spend more money on the **** and get fat on the ****
The very thought these people think their opinion carries anything like the same weight as this woman's is frankly ludicrous.
going to need about four of them to make your daily calorific requirement.
They seem happier kicking them than helping them. It is, after all, the british way.
so 4 of those followed by biscuits, chocolate, crisps, etc, full fat coke..poor but fat f**kers
That is not demonising anyone. Simply stating a fact that, if properly addressed, could make a big difference. Instead she's shouted down because of who she happens to be.
Must be a welsh thing.
You probably eat corned beef too. Dirty *******.
Weekends only as I am a man of leisure.
And when hungover midweek, obviously.
And her a PR consultant too. Bad PR from a bad PR lady.
She wasn't trying to help anyone, she was speaking at the release of a report into a parliamentary inquiry and was basically there to put the government's side after the kicking it'd received from Welbz the day before.
Unfortunately she seems to have scored a Frank Sinclair-esque own goal.
who she is probably makes it a bit hard to take for the poor. But if we ignored who she was and simply took her comments at face value, I think we could all agree that she is quite correct.
unhealthy ****, or that they were able to prepare wholesome meals from scratch at the same, or lesser cost? Because that's the question.
You appear not to give a **** either way, as long as you can make glib remarks about someone's class. :shrug:
I'd honestly love you to tell me what was so crass about what she said.
Poor people don't know how to cook - She's right. They don't.
"We have lost our cooking skills," - She's right. We have.
"I had a large bowl of porridge today, which cost 4p. A large bowl of sugary cereals will cost you 25p." - Absolutely correct.
So whence comes all this faux outrage exactly?
Honestly, one does long for the days when the C of E was 'The Conservative Party At Prayer'. They all seem to be raging Trots these days.
