According to Yawn as a Manager in FL "you're basically paid by the company to coach and train". More lies "paid by the company" so it's a salaried role now Yawn with everything that brings is it eg holiday & sick pay, pension etc??

thanks, ive re-got her - the Presidential Marketing Director !!

A bankrupt with a six-figure income? I hope she’s banging on about her six-figure income to the Insolvency Service and her Trustee in Bankruptcy. grin Makes me wonder if her alleged earnings are going into the pockets of Weird Willy’s dungarees

That’s what I think too @BSintolerant. Those Lives they do together, it’s like a sinister Keith and Orville ventriloquist act; her as Orville and him with a rictus grin, putting words in her mouth and stopping her to remind her how happy she is now. He’s definitely driving the show and collecting the cash (if there is any). There’s nothing he likes better than a bit of manipulation of the female population, if he’s female only self esteem woo is anything to go by. He’s obviously a sole trader (my phone just changed ‘sole’ to ‘dole’, funny that), so we can’t have a look at the numbers such as they are.

She’s blocked a few of us on Twitter which is a shame as I was enjoying her drivel.

Spongebobette · 17/07/2020 20:27

I wonder if Nurse has permission to post pics of the small children she’s sharing on her Insta stories?

YouokHun · 17/07/2020 23:20

Slightly odd question for you all - can any of you think of any U.K. well known people or celebrities who have made a public stand against MLM or are known for disliking them? I have been asked this question by a journalist and I immediately went blank. Ellie Flynn the presenter did come to mind, possibly Victoria Derbyshire (on the strength of a couple items on her programme). Any thoughts?

acatcalledjohn · 18/07/2020 00:33

You'd probably be more likely to find vocal anti MLMers in the likes of Martin Lewis I should imagine.

BSintolerant · 18/07/2020 00:42

Lisa Riley wasn’t impressed when a Juice Plus bot used before and after photos and claimed that Juice Plus was the reason for her impressive weight loss. I think that played out on Twitter a few years ago. The false claims were on FB on 17 July 2016. They’re still there. Mmm ...

YouokHun · 18/07/2020 00:44

I’ve always felt Martin Lewis is on the fence about MLM. I’ve never heard him say anything (Though I might have missed it!). But good point, I hadn’t thought about him.

Any MPs? I seem to remember @ArbunneHun (I think) had a local Labour Party MP who was anti and spoke about it on the V Derbyshire Show (I might have got that completely wrong).

Shame the journo wasn’t asking for Pro MLM Z Lister celb bots - plenty of those Hmm

YouokHun · 18/07/2020 00:45

Ah yes @BSintolerant I remember that.

JasperRising · 18/07/2020 10:46

What about health/fitness influencer type celebs? Not a world I know much about but those with proper nutrition/PT backgrounds maybe don't like juice plus/FL etc?

fromdownwest · 18/07/2020 10:56

If Bro Bot posted a ‘funny scare’ video on Instagram of me in my towel and my 8 year old daughter sleeping bed, his feet wouldn’t touch the floor on the way out.

He is a tragic and desperate soul isn’t he.

CompleteBarstool · 18/07/2020 11:15

So Yawn's BFF is going to climb Kilimanjaro and has suggested Yawn join her.

My god can you imagine it. She's have a porter trotting behind to carry her tonne of aloe products, false eyelashes and selfie stick (not to mention a step ladder where the porter can take a flattering of her from)

Actually @CompleteBarstool I think there needs to be some adjustment to Yawn’s packing list. You’ve missed off a tin of that paint, surely that’s worth taking up the side of Mount Kilimanjaro given that the Chaga people who dwell on the low slopes have failed to embrace Shabby Chic (also they may be a corner of the African market Bloodsucker is yet to exploit so quids in!! Eek!). The ladder can be left at home; Mount Kilimanjaro is 5895m so she can just stand on that for the selfie.

BSintolerant · 18/07/2020 12:04

Don’t forget the Bot Potty - Yawn will need something to go on!

Not sure if this will tag but James Smith detests the C9

I'd love to see someone like Martin Lewis take this on but I reckon he is well aware of the backlash he would get from spiteful bots.

Getthekettleon2020 · 18/07/2020 16:26

We have discussed before the fb buy/sell groups being flooded with FM/BSAH/Avon etc but being a nosey bitch I’ve noticed that a lot of them are based in our favourite FL bots neck of the woods.
Does this mean that FL have had their15 minutes of fame?

YouokHun · 18/07/2020 16:46

I’m sure you’re right about that @9dartfinish2nd

BSintolerant · 18/07/2020 17:04

Good point about Martin Lewis. I wonder if he thinks he’d be wasting his time and energy arguing with brainwashed bots and would prefer to help people who want to be helped?

I suspect he may agree with whoever it was who said “Never argue with an idiot: they’ll drag you down to their level and beat you through experience.”

BSintolerant · 18/07/2020 17:08

@Getthekettleon2020 Grin

Do you think Yawn’s having a garage sale? She might be downsizing or trying to raise funds to climb a mountain. Maybe she’ll go up Kilimanjaro dressed as a nun to shake things up a bit.

Getthekettleon2020 · 18/07/2020 17:55

The song climb every mountain from Sound of Music 🎧 has just gone through my mind.
Yawn says she usually goes on holiday for her birthday 🎂 but correct me if I’m wrong but apart from FL trips I don’t recall a real holiday for some time. In fact I don’t think the bots have done anything real life for some time including actual work, hence why they keep going down memory lane.
