Here's another, I call BS on 6 days

If they're going to make claims at least make them believable.

crumpetsfortea37 · 27/02/2016 07:26

Just returning briefly to earlier bot visitor - what really makes me mad is all the talk about a "business" when at the first mention of real numbers all we hear is fluffy mummy "oooooh I'm no good with numbers -they make my poor little brain hurt".
If u run a business and make a profit for any length of time one thing is for certain - numbers don't give you a migraine, they are what keeps you afloat.

The standard price of entry for this particular orgy of self-gratifying 'JP' delusion, was £64.49 X 2500 (= around £ 200k gross profit for the organisers).

ray at least it's an obvious physical change not someone sticking their arse out to make a thigh gap but no was its 6 days. More like 6weeks if you are super motivated with no commitments but probably 6mths for the average lady with kids and work.

throwingpebbles · 27/02/2016 07:56

Quite crumpets

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 07:57

The only place where all obedient 'JP' Bots can be guaranteed to lose significant ammounts of weight (over the next few days), is from their wallets. There will be all manner of religious icons and sacred texts 'mindset' materials, on sale to the 'JP' faithful on their pilgramage trip to Birmingham.

cozietoesie · 27/02/2016 08:00

Well I guess it's fairly safe to say that the company won't be subsidising its delegates. Smile

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 08:03

Notice also that the organisers of this pilgrimage event are also selling hotel rooms for a profit to the 'JP' faithful, which they will have bought at a discounted group-rate, but they are pretending that they are passing on the saving to the 'JP' faithful.

I'm trying hard to imagine the reaction from staff if I told them they would have to pay £££ in hard cash for their own training. It doesn't really bear thinking about though.

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 08:20

When you start to examine just one event like this 'JP' gathering in Birmingham, you begin to see why other real businesses don't want 'MLM' rackets to be shut down, because other real businesses are also making money from them. The UK government is also taking its share in VAT on all the hotel rooms, etc.

One of the amoral arguments put forward to me by UK regulators (many years ago when I first started to complain about 'Amway') was that 'MLM Direct Selling' stimulates growth in the economy. A similar amoral argument could be put forward for other criminal activities.

cozietoesie · 27/02/2016 08:23

Out of interest, have the trades unions ever been alerted to the issues involved in this?

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 08:34

cozietoesie 'MLM' is one the most fiendish systems imaginable. In fact, its unimaginable for many people, because what's going on here has been impossible for casual observers (including jounalists, regulators, etc.) to accept. Not only are 'MLM' Bots de facto slaves of wealthy masters, they actually queue up to pay for the dubious privilege of learning how to be more hard working, productive and obedient for these sociopathic racketeers.

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 08:42

In the past, I've approached a few unions in the UK with my concerns about members getting lured in 'MLM' rackets, but without any come back.

The first uninon I ever contacted was the Farmers Union, because a lot of farmers were involved with 'Amway' in the 1990s. There was a vet who had recruited a number of farmers in N. Yorkshire.

So, I treated myself to the fb hashtag #jpbirm16.
It is astonishing. Loads of #callthiswork? bs (yes, yes I do)
But then I found this. How is this for a claim?
Wtf?

Is that those benighted 'tampons' or am I thinking about another MLM?

rayofhope · 27/02/2016 08:58

flamebar hahahah that's a cracker one right there!

crumpetsfortea37 · 27/02/2016 09:00

flamebar that Down's syndrome post is outrageous. What if anything can be done?

cozietoesie · 27/02/2016 09:03

I would consider another set of approaches to the trades unions, focussing - from their perspective - on membership loss. There are one or two fairly extensive current advertising campaigns trying to encourage membership eg in the public sector and if it were put to them that MLMs could mean the loss of long standing members .....? The fact that they might be acting against a Bad Thing would just be icing on the cake.

Keep it light and relevant to them as always.

cozietoesie · 27/02/2016 09:11

crumpets

Yes - it is appalling.

Is there any reason why national associations concerned with eg Downs' people should not be alerted to such stuff? Concentration on the regulators might not reach as many people I would have thought.

BSintolerant · 27/02/2016 09:12

Flame that's outrageous isn't it?

I haven't got any medical issues so I'm tempted to see if Juice Plus gives me any miraculous abilities.

Imagine my testimonial: Juice Plus has changed my life. It has enabled me to fly (without wings), teleport myself across the world at will, it's improved my telepathic superpowers, and helped me turn invisible - such fun huns!!!! The difference it has made to my life is amazing. I can now save my feet for special occasions, I don't have to spend a thing on travel and phone bills, and I love the fact I can spend my Saturdays causing havoc in changing rooms at premier league football matches when the invisibility wears off.

Eyespying · 27/02/2016 09:14

I don't want to destroy anyone's hopes of stopping the 'MLM' lie in the UK, but just look how powerful these evil bastards are in the USA. The WSJ is a News Corp. title, and its selectively-blind, morally-relativist jounalists have a lot of questions to answer themselves.

I'd be writing that up for TV directly, BS. Grin

cozietoesie · 27/02/2016 09:18

Oh I don't think you are, Eye.

Just considering ways to spread the news. Smile
