And yet she won't stop buying food.. Doesn't have much income coming in and is wasting savings on tons of food.

Why would you admit to that? Shock

YABU for linking to that shitrag of a “newspaper”, or giving any credit at all to anything that they publish.

The tale of the original Mark Fowler in EastEnders, who quit because of mental health issues, was hounded by the Sun and called a 'Nutter' on the front page and eventually killed himself, is instructive.

TheStarryNight · 09/04/2020 15:24

For Christ’s sake, leave the poor woman alone.

Shame on the Sun for this, totally in line with it’s usual tack of vicious, pernicious nonsense designed to whip up outrage and misdirect it at the vulnerable.

YABU for reading an article written by the sun.

I think people still confuse best before and use by

Best before- you can still eat it, but it might not be as good

Use by- usually no good.

Though I tend to do the sniff test first

What a stupid selfish woman. She's got no shame admitting to this, and with photos! Some will do anything for money. How nice, when nurses are facing empty shelves after their shifts. Her kids must be so proud of her.

Purpletigers · 12/04/2020 14:25

She sounds vulnerable

Stellamboscha · 12/04/2020 14:32

Bingo!
'Vulnerable' yeah, sure.

IrmaFayLear · 12/04/2020 14:41

What is this term "vulnerable" for anyone who behaves badly? Vulnerable should be reserved for those who really are, well, vulnerable - children in care, people with SN, the very elderly. Not idiots and people who are just stupid.

This story doesn't ring true; it seems as if the perpetrator has concocted it for whatever The Sun pays for such stories.

Alley Einstein was accused of paying a woman to lie that she had injected her daughter with Botox. She paid and coached the woman allegedly giving her a pre written script.
The woman lost custody of her daughter, then after an examination by a doctor found that the child had not ever been injected with Botox, the child was returned.

Wow that Jornalist is evil!

Other instances where the journalist has set up vulnerable people for these stories.

It's definitely made up- Emmie Shute just doesn't exist!

That woman is an idiot , throwing away bottles of soy sauce and Worcester sauce - clueless
