Any bets on how long it will take for PTWM & Mrs Meldrum to colaborate so Rachael can reach and get more followers, seeing as they have both been horrifically trolled and cant leave the house?


(I know this isnt a Mrs M thread, just mentioning her as she's been crying over trolls this past week too)

As someone who suffers daily with social anxiety, it upsets me to see PTWM talking about being unable to leave the house and then beaming and laughing all over her channels, out for meals, off out promoting herself etc etc. I work one hour a day, I struggle to do this sometimes due to having to speak to people, travel to and from work etc, every day is different and some are really hard but I donā€™t have the luxury of being unable to leave the house. And when I do feel like this, the last thing I feel like doing is talking to a camera and broadcasting my sensitive personal feelings to the entire internet.

just on the tax side, there seems no record of her as a director of a company (unless she uses a different last name). So letā€™s hope sheā€™s registered as self employed and is declaring her income correctly. Wonder how she accounts for a free conservatory renovation for example. Perhaps the accountant is helping with that too....

I re read her PayPal beg for donations, itā€™s pretty clear some of the money does go to her so she can be paid for her time, I donā€™t think thatā€™s hidden itā€™s just the extent of it which is unknown, and as I said before by setting up as a charity or directing where needed to registered charities, a lot more could be raised via gift aid and sheā€™d have to be transparent and file accounts etc. That said, many charity workers and heads are paid positions and fair enough, so again , for me itā€™s about disclosure and scrutiny here, so those donating have the full facts in hand.

I think itā€™s the balance isnā€™t it and the silence regarding the question of where the heck the money is going and what on.

Iā€™ve said I donā€™t deny her a proportionate admin fee but then I have to ask myself what exactly is her role because having had intervention from multiple services/charities in my past they provide all that sheā€™s claiming too.

People have made excellent points in the last thread but we can only share the facts and listen to people who come here with compassion. I think sheā€™s managed to stay within the laws in terms of legality cos letā€™s face it sheā€™s slippery as they come but morally and ethically sheā€™s fell extremely short there and thatā€™s me being diplomatic.

Safeguarding of victims of da is extremely low weā€™ve seen deeply personal emails and the people involved in various incidents we know in-depth about those things. These are all deeply personal things which if people realised were in the public eye would be devastated by.

Not going to comment on children but that fireworks thing was bloody irresponsible and as an ā€œinfluencerā€ she think about her actions because itā€™s clear she can be deeply impressionable on people who follow her.

I just wonder how she gets away with the Paypal fee even though its supposedly above board...I'm sure if you earn over a certain amount on Paypal (even if its sent as friends and family/'donations') they start raising questions or can report you to HMRC to make sure you're being taxxed? I think its Ā£4000 or something around that mark.

How are you coping with your anxiety now, lovely? If you ever need a chat, please dont hesitate to measege me.šŸ˜˜

Not saying at all that there is a specific way that people act when they have anxiety but these influencers who clain to have anxiety can do many things a lot of anxiety sufferers cant do. I have social anxiety, it feels like the world is closing in on me and that i can't breath. I make excuses and cancel plans so i can stay home, in my safe place.
The contradictions from Rachael herself is just baffling! She claims to be staying at home for all sorts of reasons and doesnt go out etc and has been doing that for a while because people know of her life and talk about her and know info.. INFO THAT SHE IS GIVING OUT HERSELF! We wouldn't know a lot of it if she wasnt telling the world and showing the world her life. Has been for dinner with the family many times, been for walks, not long ago she was staying at a lodge! She goes out A LOT for someone who claims they dont go our a lot out of fear. Anxiety is crippling and wouldnt wish it on my worse enemy. You feel isolated from the world but can't bring yourself to socialise. šŸ˜“

Iā€™m not entirely sure how it works especially the subscription thing cos I never heard of it before until this all happened!

But interesting PayPal says it works from a sellers account so does that mean itā€™s a personal account too (I use a personal account for depop/eBay selling)

And she's off out for a walk down the beach now. It's absolute BS and 'horrific' that she doesn't show her proof. I keep checking in to her stories thinking surely she will address it by now. Nope. She's been outed and I'm surprised that her followers who have been directed here have not read through it and used some common sense to ask her the questions that are being asked. Even if I read this about my husband and knew 100% it was untrue I would still ask. Any business/public figure would provide proof if they were being accused of fraud. The more I read the more annoyed I'm getting, surely some investigation can be done.

Why is she encouraging the boys to jump into a shallow area of water thatā€™s clearly fenced off?!?
 
Right,

Iā€™ve had a brief read through the PayPal help guides. As far as I can make out in order to get a donate button you have to be either a charity or a not for profit but you have to have a business account.

So sheā€™s not got a business account or a charity/not for profit account sheā€™s got a personal/sellers account because the button on her page says subscription not donate.

Theyā€™re BFF now as a result of this, fawning over each otherā€™s posts. Two narcissists together.

Her cockiness on Insta is just spiralling out of control now. What a difference a week makes?!

Not to you Rachaele as you still havenā€™t provided any transparency on what youā€™ve been spending other peopleā€™s money on, whether or not the correct PayPal fees, tax, NI etc have been paid. what DA safeguarding practices you have in place, why you think itā€™s acceptable to pass warriors details to random followers and offer no follow up or support, and why you think illegal doxxing and online bullying and public targeting of others is an acceptable response, especially as you are an Ambassador for a so-called anti-bullying charity. You have shown none of the love and kindness that you frequently witter on about.

The only difference this week has seen is that youā€™ve placed yourself even higher on that pedestal and seem to think youā€™re invincible.

Who is Mrs Meldrum anyway?!
A instamummy vlogger who lies about being gifted trips (went on holiday to Disney land Paris, was asked if the trip was gifted, bizarrely stated that they paid for it when it turned out it really was gifted), doesnā€™t understand ASA guidelines as frequently doesnā€™t declare ads or gifts correctly, over exposed her children online, included a KKK racist comment in one of her vlogs, tried to prove she wasnā€™t by racist by doing a follow Friday for Candice Braithwaite who called her out on it. Has refused to apologise for rascist ā€˜jokeā€™ but instead sits in a car and cries about trolls, Tattle, her mental health and also partakes in a bit of illegal doxxing by naming a Tattler who ends up receiving death threats from Meldrumā€™ss cult members as a result.

Sound familiar? her & PTWM are made for each other šŸ˜‚

I donā€™t pay much attention to Mrs Meldrum but I think thatā€™s about the jist of it.

Iā€™m not surprised about kidscape. For years oxfam were alerted of the sex abuse.... itā€™s only now theyā€™ve admitted it.

Speaks volumes

Hi Iā€™m going to apologise now for the what I think might be a long and rambling post

Iā€™ve been lurking and reading for the last week Iā€™ve followed PTWM since the mother care post, and although i take somethings she posts with a little pinch of salt because Iā€™ve always thought there might be a bit of embellishment or a little twist of truth. And sometimes Iā€™ve wondered what she been thinking posting certain things when anyone can see your going to get stick for it, but nothing Iā€™ve felt uncomfortable with to stop following her. Generally she made me laugh and also cry and I felt she was really trying to help those in domestic violence situations, something that is personal to me and I will always support.

When the post came up re the PayPal donations I took as read that she would be using the money to help those in need and to all help her run websites/blog. I never thought it was going to charities directly and while I donā€™t have a problem with that per say I wasnā€™t prepared to fund one womans crusade Iā€™m not saying itā€™s not worthwhile but I work in the charity sector and a lot of us are struggling with funding I couldnā€™t just giving to someone unregistered registered without gift aid and no accountability however thatā€™s my personal preference whatever someone does with there money is there choice.

But anyone who has is more than entitled to question where there moneys being spent. What percentage is she using for x,y,z. And letā€™s face it itā€™s not a hard question to answer! Well it shouldnā€™t be anyway.

Iā€™m utterly appalled a week later and sheā€™s still not addressed people concerns re the money and sheā€™s still not addressed what she did wrong by insisting people to bully others. In stead she became the victim and post about love winning out is laughable with regards to kidsscap to be honest until this reach the national press there not going to publicly shame her to much time and money involved in all manner of things all negative publicity means a drop in donations so I think they will quietly remove her. Well I hope so anyway

And finally to find out that people arenā€™t being helped in any way when they reach out really upset me that is part of my job, I honestly couldnā€™t sleep at night if I thought I had ignored someone, but not even a message back with information about were else to get help is disgusting I hope those who did reach out found someone else to help them

Yes, Messiah Kaeto received a lot of threats from Meldrum fans incl towards his children and organised_motherhood was blocked by her after her very sensible recent Insta stories about trolling.

The likes of Meldrum & PTWM are doing no favours to other bloggers by ignoring reasonable questions and screaming Troll. Their delete/ignore/block/release the hounds tactics are helping to poison Instagram and spoil it for many. I wonder if thatā€™s why Man vs Baby deleted his recent nasty post calling us all nasty jealous bitter twats amongst other things. The only trolling & bullying Iā€™ve seen is from some influencers and their followers šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø
