R to @goglentw: Again, I’m not fuelling it, I have a right to not be lied about and smeared on prominent platforms. I rarely respond these days but this felt necessary.

R to @Elly_the_moo: I’ve never paid Mark a penny. The people who lose tend to do the paying bit, and I’ve not lost yet. That’s also a matter of public record (see Monroe v Hopkins, fairly famous and well reported case.) HTH.

R to @ChrissieClarky: It’s quite easy to afford the completely free-of-charge lawyer, in my experience.

R to @Elly_the_moo: I really don’t care what you call your imaginary friends, to be honest. Now shoo, I’m having a lovely evening and you’re the Twitter equivalent of a mosquito under the duvet. And that’s never ended well for the mosquito round here. 🦟

R to @Elly_the_moo: You take on the risk of costs because there’s always a risk of not winning. And as I said at the time; if I didn’t need the money for the case, any contributions would be donated. I didn’t set up a crowdfunder for it, though, that’s not true.

R to @Alien8n: Reminiscent of the Spamatriciana in the Asda edition of Tin Can Cook; mischievously conceived to really offset the collective aneurysms in the most determined of critics 🤣 (and its utterly delicious despite the travesty, fatty pork is fatty pork however you happen to dice it!)

R to @sue_irving: By surrounding myself with decent, loving, grounded human beings, my family, staying focused on why I do what I do, and sometimes just laying face down with the cat/dog/both and muffled roaring into a big soft pillow. And crisps. Plenty of crisps.

R to @Alien8n: The disproportionate sulk I had when I realised - that’ll learn me to tweet and pack boxes at the same time…

R to @fergalpquinn: Fundraising is ringfenced in a separate account that I use solely for that purpose, precisely to keep it all clean. If it were in my Work, House or Personal account, Fergal, that would absolutely be a concern. But trying to ‘gotcha’ me for being diligent? I’m embarrassed for you.

R to @BootstrapCook: Now I’ve got a really lovely day planned, and this certainly isn’t it. Have a good day!

R to @fergalpquinn: ‘Empty accounts’? There’s £83.91 in there. Only someone who has never known what it’s like to be poor or destitute would describe having almost £100 in credit as an ‘empty account’. For an alleged QC, Fergal, you sure as s don’t seem very interested in truth and accuracy. 🥹

R to @Mattthelino: Well my little website has 4x as many subscribers as the Express has circulation figures, so I think it’s a fairly reasonable assessment 🤷‍♀️

R to @claireLTdoodle: I haven’t done a single talk since I’ve been signed with KC, and it’s an agents job to pitch excessively high because companies and brands routinely offer a crumb of the asking price. That’s not my job to navigate: I do the words, and the agent sorts the money for the words. HTH.

R to @fergalpquinn: Oh sorry, all you obsessive bores meld into one homogenous mass of tedium that I can barely differentiate between at times, what with my eyes rolling so hard every time you pop up. Apologies for mistaking you for something respectable, won’t do it again!

R to @fergalpquinn: I don’t recall engaging your services for advice, Fergal, and if this is your ‘shop window’ I’d be astounded if anyone else did either, given your behaviour. So do us all a favour now, run along, and leave me alone. I’ve got a lovely very busy day planned, and you’re no in it.

R to @LucyP42127602: No, it was to show that Gary Lineker and I aren’t really similar enough to lump together in a wealth category. Sigh.
