I don't get why people stockpile cleaning stuff! I have 1 bottle Zoflora, 1 bleach , 1 Mr Muscle bathroom cleaner, 1 Mr Muscle window cleaner, 1 bottle of fairy liquid! Would rather have money sitting in my bank instead of my cupboard.

Kiss I dont purport to being completely on board with everything eco friendly yet but I've made massive changes and I pass those changes on to my children, it's my responsibility to do that, to educate them.

She (and I believe lots of other cleaning accounts exist) should be doing the same, making changes, educating people. She has a platform where she could educate people because from what I've read her army hang off her every word.

That's not bullying I don't think...

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:15

Have you ever stopped to think maybe she doesn't realise how environmentally unfriendly it is? We're not all educated on eco activism.

I know how damaging it is to the planet but the only thing that cleans crap off the bed is Zoflora. Sometimes there isn't a choice. But yes, if there is, take it. People believe putting their plastic bottles in the recycling is enough.

Why is nobody attacking Proctor & Gamble for MAKING all the waste and contaminating the planet in the process? Why is it up to the twenty-something consumer who has just happened to garner a massive following on social media? Why is she getting ALL the flack?

Don't shoot the middle man

Boohissmiss · 22/10/2018 13:16

are you new to mumsnet ? There is threads all over the place about celebrities . Not that Mrs Hinch is a celeb more of a try hard . Her story featuring her husband yesterday was as scripted as Eastenders .

Instacrumb · 22/10/2018 13:24

I'm sure her PR will sort the #ad and #aff and all that other stuff that stops you lot from sleeping, she's shot up to exponential figures, give her chance to learn the ropes

This annoys me because she knows exactly what she is doing. A lot of people know what she's meant to be doing, even non influencers can take the time to read the guide for a few minutes. She's got a million followers. She's not new. She's had several issues pointed out to her. She chooses to ignore them. She gets away with it by people giving her the benefit of the doubt all the time saying she's new or by people not knowing otherwise.

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 13:32

"Not a celeb, more of a try hard"- actually snorted then. Meow with a side order of meeowww. K'in ell. Grin These threads are peaches. "It's all about the nuances of influences and ad disclosure honest guv" mmkay yes if you say so lol

Boohissmiss · 22/10/2018 13:32

Exaclty instacrumb she confirmed that yesterday but saying that her swipe up for some make up brush thing wasn’t an affiliate and she was just trying to help people out. So she knows she needs to need declare them . It also pretty much confirmed that every swipe up she has ever posted have been affiliates and she was just posting them to make money off her followers . Regardless of if ripping them off by paying over the odds prices to buy the products. How about helping people out then huh .

Boohissmiss · 22/10/2018 13:36

Verbena she is trying hard to be a celeb is she not. That is a fact. Begging people to write to Loose woman to get her on. Begging people to get others to follow her to get her to 1million again all facts .

Homeinspo · 22/10/2018 13:40

How laughable! If you think THIS is bullying maybe look up the definition?

I would hate for you to endure REAL bullying as this is far from it.

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:42

Do you know what guys, there's bigger things to be worrying about.

'More of a try hard' yet you argue it's 'just a discussion'

You'll be in the playground brawling next.

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 13:44

"They're being meaner than us so that means we're being ok" ... umm... kay. Grin Anyway who said the b word? I didn't. I just said meoww. Which it was. A very meeowww moment. Dress it up all you like, that's what these threads are all about.

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:46

@Homeinspo you know nothing about me. I've known bullying. I didn't come here to argue the definition of bullying.

What is the definition of entire (two) threads made for the sole purpose of moaning with an undertone of bitchiness about a single person?
Because I bet if they were 'discussing' you, you'd feel bullied.

MinecraftHolmes · 22/10/2018 13:47

Did you do Chemistry in school?

I did Chemistry at school and don't remember being told that vinegar and bleach can make chlorine gas when they're mixed. I only found that out when I saw TOM talk about it.

Homeinspo · 22/10/2018 13:47

@verbeenabeeks perhaps if you read all posts instead of ones you will only read to defend your idol you would see bullying was used.

If you put yourself out there as a 'celeb' not everyone will like you and you have to take on the chin the positives and negatives.

She has been told about damaging the environment but she just blocks people.

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:48

I'm not surprised she blocks people! Have you seen this thread?

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 13:52

Kisscub - neither am I! I'd be blocking the hell out of half these people too on Instagram threads and here lol. It's dressed up as but I'm just sending them questions etc but jeez, as if you'd put up with all this shit. You'd get block happy trigger finger lol.

Homeinspo · 22/10/2018 13:53

@kisscub if i put myself out on a public platform i would know i wouldn't be everyones cup of tea because she won't be. Not every 'celeb' is liked. We don't all like the same stuff and if we did we would all be robots.

From what i have seen most comments are about her not stating where she is making money which is against the asa, her army attacking others, hoarding of cleaning products and not understanding how this has turned into a big thing. I do not see bullying only a matter of opinion for discussion.

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:55

Who was it who was blabbering on about her Botox and fillers then? I'm not scrolling back through this thread but it's there. How is that part of the discussion about her affiliate links?

It's a smokescreen for nastiness. The undertone is obvious.

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 13:55

Obviously she won't be everyone's cup of tea, nobody ever will appeal to everybody all at the same time. I'll never understand the mindset of "well they put themselves out there so they should put up with it" that you see so much of. Just because they're out there it's not hard to not come across as a troll.

kisscub · 22/10/2018 13:56

It's not the first thread, she's not the first to be 'discussed'.

I bet the posters are pretty much the same though. Next month it'll be someone else.

HSM19 · 22/10/2018 14:03

Wow this is like a school playground! You lot should be ashamed of yourselves. Yes she uses to many chemicals and plastic and has no care for the environment and you don’t agree with her, debate it ofcourse that is life freedom of speech and all but wow some of these comments about her personally are vile. And some of you are even going to the lengths to report her, god do you not have your own problems in life. Stop worrying about what she’s doing and worry about yourselfs. Someone actually said they are worried as the ‘hinch army’ are raising the next generation, you lot want to worry about not inflicting your catty personality’s on to your kids. I do hope one day if one of your kids gets lucky and can make a good living out of social media/influencing that they aren’t exposed to the level of nasty visious comments that you lot seem to think it’s acceptable to make about a young women.

WhirlyGigWhirlyGig · 22/10/2018 14:05

Kiss maybe you should read up on how Sophie has done nothing to call off her 'army' who have harassed and bullied Gemma from TOMM.

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 14:08

HSM19. - welcome to the madness of Insta threads lol. I just can't even anymore. Grin

Boohissmiss · 22/10/2018 14:10

This is hilarious all those crying bullying I suggest you report those comments as mumsnet would delete them if that’s the case .

VerbeenaBeeks · 22/10/2018 14:12

Call off the Army? As if you can tell an entire internet forum to not be troll'y bullies. Any bullies and trolls will bully and troll regardless if they're that way inclined, these threads show that! Grin She's addressed it in her stories at least once. If they still do, that's their doing.

Boohissmiss · 22/10/2018 14:12

I love how most of those sticking up for her and on brand new accounts . She must be having a busy day setting up new accounts to agree with herself
