I've never posted before but have read with interest these pages .. when she spoke about a beautiful day to be walking my mouth fell open .. but I understand that Instagram is a business , a job and some are making a good wage from it and anyone can do it , u me anyone , unfollow the ones u don't like or enjoy .. the whole country was moved by the awful murder of a beautiful young women and I believe there is a change in the air and maybe Ashling didn't die in vein and some good might come from this maybe zero tolerance on attacks on women who knows .. but selling dresses on Instagram is a job to her .. Will u go to your job today
The issue isn’t that Instagram is her job, the issues are as follows;

- On Wednesday evening, after news broke of a horrific attack and murder on a young girl in her hometown, Lisa was on Instagram selling dresses to her followers and showing presents that Chris had bought her, namely runners. She continued to sell on her Instagram page after this news from her hometown had broken. This was a massive error.

- As news of Ashling’s death broke, Lisa added a poll to her stories regarding Ashling’s death. This was a massive error.

- On Thursday morning, Lisa went on an Instagram Live and spoke about the horrific murder whilst she was doing her make up and drinking coffee. She did not give the incident or Ashling the respect they deserved. This was a massive error.

- On that Live, Lisa aligned the death of her brother to the death of this beautiful young girl. I believe Lisa’s brother was killed while he was driving under the influence of alcohol and also caused the death of other people. Connecting both incidents was very disrespectful. This was a massive error.

- On the Live, Lisa reference what she was doing at the time of Ashling’s death. This was a massive error.

- After the Live, Lisa chose to walk to work, along the route that Ashling would have taken the day before. Long time followers have noted that this is not something Lisa would have ever done before, yet she decided to walk to work the morning after a murderous attack on a young girl by a random stranger. This was a massive error.

- Whilst walking to work, Lisa rejoiced in the attention her long green coat was receiving from followers, and proceeded to promote her own clothing brand. She had a very joyful expression and said how much she enjoyed the Live that morning. This was a massive error.

- Whilst walking to work, Lisa outlined what a “beautiful beautiful day” it was. This was a day that her hometown and indeed the whole country were mourning the loss of a beautiful young woman’s life and indeed the loss of the feeling of safety that women have in daylight hours now too. This was not a beautiful day. This was a massive error.

- After Lisa’s selling, Instagram Live and joyous walk to work, when followers raised their concerns via comments on her Instagram posts, these concerns were deleted and followers were blocked. This was a massive error.

- Lisa then proceeded to put a countdown to the Tullamore Vigil on to a photograph of Ashling which popped a celebratory popper once the time was reached. This was a massive error.

- Lisa has shared a quote this morning which reads “Turn your wounds into wisdom”, days after a young girl in her hometown lost her life as a number of cruel wounds were inflicted on her. This was a massive error.

- Lisa has now come back on Socials this morning and has not addressed any of the above errors that she made over the last number of days. This is a massive error!

So, whilst it may seem like trolls or evil people are simply being pedantic in relation to the events of the last few days, it is very evident that this is not the case.
As an Instagram account holder with a following of almost 150,000 people, you have a responsibility to do things correctly, and in cases where you do things incorrectly you should acknowledge this, address it, apologise for your actions and move on.

Lisa has not done any of this, simply brushed it all under the carpet and silenced her followers.
It is quite horrific that she handled this whole situation so badly to be honest.

So let’s get this straight she has an issue with people on Instagram stalking her, in essence that’s her issue yes? So why would she want any followers then as in essence we follow every move she makes (Cos she shows us it all every bit!!!). Image if Facebook just said grand out you go Lisa you are not allowed on our platforms. What would she do. All that selling would be impossible.

Exactly!! Some things we know about Lisa because SHE shared it HERSELF on Instagram on her public profile accessible by anybody anywhere.....she either told or showed people these things HERSELF in her stories, or on her grid.

^^^this is all info that she gave out or showed herself, on her PUBLIC profile, and, I hasten to add, I am not and never have been an avid follower, albeit, I do have a good memory.

In short, Lisa is a serial oversharer. I’ve never been to Tullamore, I’ve never met the woman, but I know all of this about her nonetheless!! Why?? Because she said it or showed it all HERSELF, PUBLICLY. Now, she absolutely did/does NOT deserve phone calls or letters or whatever else, but if you put that amount of info out there online, of your own free will, how on earth can you claim stalking or breaching of privacy etc. Be accountable for your public content!! And if you don’t want to be accountable for your public content, then don’t say stuff or show stuff publicly??!!

I honestly don’t give two hoots what Lisa does with her day, or where she is going, or what she is doing, or why she even feels the need to come on her stories and tell people. It’s stupid from a security point of view and it’s damned dull content. ‘I’m just finished in the gym now lads, I’ll go into work now for 10 and be finished at 5’’.....bore off Lisa, nobody cares. You’ve fed the trolls and encouraged the stalkers all by yourself, so grow up and don’t mind running to the High Court about it. And I hope that somebody on her legal team reads this, and realises that there’s more going on here than the little oul Lisa act that she has probably portrayed to them. She’s spent years bilging the details of her personal life and her movements publicly online, what on earth did she expect?! Eventually, and again I don’t condone these actions, somebody was going to ring, or write, or stalk, she gave them every bit of info that they needed!! If she has lost business, it’s likely because of Covid 19 and because she’s becoming old news now or maybe people just got tired of the sell sell sell. Irregardless, Everybody’s star burns less bright eventually. I’m sure that’s a hard pill to swallow but c’est la vie🙃

Hi everyone. I have been following this thread for a while now and want to share my perspective.

Until a few months ago I was a long time follower of LLL, I fell for the spin and I was very much influenced by her to buy the products. And I bought a lot of them.

However, there was one incident which made me hit the unfollow button. It was after the biopsy drama and a kind cancer survivor sent her a lovely message of encouragement and LLL responds by posting it to her stories in a “look what I have to put up with” kind of way. There was so many ways to handle that situation and she chose to publicly share and play the victim. I didn’t matter to me that the name was hidden, I just felt that was an appalling way to treat another human, who in my mind deserved to be admired not shamed. I had known for sometime I was getting the hard sell, I knew she had sold out for the money, the shameless materialism, the begging for kitchen quartz, the lack of charity, fast fashion, contrived content, it was all getting too much for me. But her treatment of that follower was the final straw.

The whole Instagram Influencer scene is flawed in my opinion. Once these influencers get to a certain number of followers they are enticed by the money that can be made and they sell out and content is never authentic again. I generally unfollow people after they get to a certain size, because of this. LLL has not committed a crime by monetizing her following but she sold herself as something different and that is what is annoying people now. I really thought LLL was different, she came across more genuine. She had her own wealth, her own career, no mortgage, financially independent and seemed to dislike the fake instahun influencer scene. Her content was authentic, she did a lot to promote independent Irish boutiques and only promoted products she really believed in.

Now LLL limited is a company that sells a service, the money that we spend on products she has influenced us to buy is passed onto her, much like a broker. You can call it sponsorship, paid advertising, brand ambassador or commission, whatever - but there is financial reward in return for her influencing us to buy products. So with that should come some accountability. Someone on here has compared her stories to the QVC channel and that is exactly right, except you know what to expect with QVC, but with LLL we are led to believe something different. And whether she will admit it or not she has become something she told us she never was.

The responses by her this week did nothing to help her reputation – if she is so concerned about businesses recovering from covid – why not pay for the services you use, and give back to small business a little. However, the businesses she continues to promote are the ones that pay her the most, the ones that can afford to pay her – not the ones most in need or most deserving - that doesn’t come into it anymore. She can’t claim the morale high ground anymore, she sold out to the highest bidder and lost that right.

As for the trolling claims, this has really infuriated me. If you buy a product or service in most industries, you are entitled to your feedback – google reviews, trust pilot, tripadvisor, amazon, ebay. There is no feedback platform for influencers, so places like Tattle become this. LLL is a lucrative enterprise and 95% of the comments on this page are feedback relating to the service provided by this enterprise. To call this trolling is manipulation of the truth to suit her own agenda and financial gain.

We could just ‘jog on’ to use her own words but I don’t think that’s its acceptable to outlaw asking questions, it feels very subservient. There are very few industries where business owners would get away with treating any stakeholder like that. In my mind this is further confirmation that this an industry that needs to be more regulated and transparent, and that those funding it have a right to a voice and question practices.

Well girls the newsletter dropped this AM.
For those of you lucky not to receive it....I'd hate you to miss out, here it is....******LONG BULLETIN INCOMING***"* SORRY*****

Well girls she needed the break.
Well girls she spent it with himself his son her son mammy n daddy 😴😴😴😴
Well girls she wouldn't be brave enough to host Xmas dinner

ALSO m&s do everything ready for the oven, even the shittest cook could manage😡 )
WELL GIRLS (she says this a lot).
Well girls she's building a house💁🙄
because daddy closed the office and she has no room to store all deliveries 😴😴 (would have been cheaper to rent an office ye tight hole💁)

Loves where she lives, but no space for deliveries and no garden space for outdoor office, so she's moving across the road and building a huge house to accommodate this💁🙄🤣🤣🤣
(I'm fed up typing "well girls'!🤣)
But what struck me in this part was there was no mention of how much she loved living where she is, missing close neighbors, friends, it having been a lovely area etc considering she's lived there all of daraghs life, she even calls it her "safe haven" for her and the prince after the break up of the marriage 😳😳😳not even a mention of friends HE would have made in the estate they're in 😳😳😳 VERY VERY ODD 😳💁

Now the big kicker in this was , we all know her attention to detail, she's a details girl 😉 her fundraiser went ahead this year (she wasn't going to do it cuz of last year's "negativity" towards her fundraiser 🙄) but she did and was delighted to have chosen BERNARDO'S!!!!!! mis spelt the feckin name! AND more than once !!!!! It's
B A R N A R D O S! 😡😡😡😡More importantly n mention of if they already got the money raised, which is odd💁

ALSO magenta sweatshirt was restyled (really???💁).she doesn't want to keep things the same yadda yadda yadda....(click here to buy)
The "luxury" hats n scarves are here for the cold weather (click here to buy) ...... Sell sell sell 🙄
Sunglasses are huge hit - more stock on the way 🙄

Del Boy Trotter has nothing on this one for the selling, Q "only fools and horses" theme tune , apt.song for the sheep (fools) and the STABLE. pieces 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

1200 lucky sheep will be fleeced in February, 🤣🤣🤣going to her sold out show. This will be the last time her shows will be in "this format" but you never know "what the future brings" in "Lisa land"!!!! (More flogging more shit at a stratospheric level IMHO 💁- mansion won't fund itself!)
(Booking out the O2 in Dublin next? Actually setting up her very own tullamore QVC channel live every day from her newly built McGowl manor 💁who knows......who cares🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣)

That GIRLS is my report 💁if I suffered reading it, you can suffer the synopsis of it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
