It’s not credited on her post of 16 December and yet other gifted stuff is. Where was it disclosed?
I can’t remember - maybe the story??
I fed remember as I had just ordered some blinds and was surprised she was working with Hillary’s . Maybe in the highlights it will say??
 
I stopped following ED last year, her #metoo Oprah loving rants were cringe, ED is condescending and I had a look at their latest NZ piece, it’s such an after thought, she doesn’t care yet pretends she does? Or maybe she does but she’s very jump on the bandwagon of the day?

I used to love Steph dontbuyherflowers. She seemed tonrow her own boat and just seemed lovely- she still does but the stories from mothers are just the same old influencers spouting their crap and I’m so disappointed? I get it- most of us suffer from a bit of PND but it feels like the same stuff being regurgitated- again there is no diversity and just giving the same mums the platform that they already have? If you’re not in the white middle class mum club you can’t have a voice- it’s disgusting.

Steph does feel very contrived like she knows she’s being adorable like she’s “one of us” in the think of it, but she’s not. She lives in Barnes FFS. They’re all white very middle class women and once they were called out for lack of diversity they jump on loving CB & booksbabyandback to show they can be diverse then these same two token black women will be dolled out at every event.

Hungermamas podcast is bad I can’t think who would listen to it except “that circle” and they will share their love for it in return for love for their products/whatever they want us to buy.

Their aim originally was to bring mothers together but they’ve done the opposite they’ve created a lot of hate and made me very cynical of women.

The thing is that diversity isn’t just the black mum? That’s what they don’t understand! Are there any mums in the gang that are gay, poor, single, Scottish, Irish, older kids, kids with disabilities. I follow quite a wide range of people - I don’t live in the London square mile with the banker husband. Oh you poor thing, harrods is out of caviar and the central line was busy, I was late for my Botox appointment! What???? I’m pissed off with Aldi isn’t selling milk! Uber isn’t even available where I am so you’re 30 minutes of difficult tube journey doesn’t make me feel sorry for you, because you have the tube- I need to walk 3 miles to get a bus that comes once every 45mins!!! Marks and Spencer at the weekend doing a lovely day out for the mums- how about you don’t take your mum and you take someone that really deserves a day out, oh that’s right you wouldn’t be able to because influencers only follow other influencers so they never look outside their bubble!

How the hell is CT even entitled to tax credits? Seriously! I am a single mum earning barely over £30,000 a year and I'm not entitled to any extra help. They are scroungers, the lot of them.
I’m shocked at that! All those holidays and paid partnerships etc. I wonder if they’re declared to the tax man. There’s no way she should be getting tax credits!

Is CT an idiot? Why is she sharing her tax credits online? She must know she angers enough people by a lot of the stuff she shares why post this? To show she’s really busy doing mundane stuff just like us? She’s so not self aware. Surely she will get reported to the tax man after this?

That’s appalling? Even if she earned no money, her husbands income should mean that she doesn’t qualify for tax credits?

I think ED has a very conscious style. She has created the ED persona - and she pulls it off beautifully. I am also ex Fleet St and certainly know the power of a well crafted character. She doesn't annoy me though (tasteless #Christchurch aside) as she is professional about her work (which is too "predictable" for me - it's everywhere from Matalan to IKEA) and she doesn't use her children as sales props.
 
How the duck is CT entitled to child tax credits? I thought the threshold was something like £16k a year household income.

A million pound house and entitled to benefits what the hell?

The tax credit thing is a sort of loophole many influencers exploit. It wouldn't surprise me if there is a fair amount of undeclared income and I doubt the freebies get declared. Freebies aren't direct income but when it includes toiletries, clothing and things like Hello Fresh it most certainly will reduce household expenses. She's daft putting that kind of private info out into the public domain.

Actually every parent is given tax credits. It’s like £20 a each week for first child and £13 for second (I know this as I get). It was in the bounty bag!
If you earn over 50k you have to pay something/don’t get as much...
 
I wonder do holidays count as income, if no money exchanges hands? Could we all take a moment to appreciate how hard Clemmie 's life is....3 gifted holidays this year does not make up for the fact that she living in poverty, trying to sell her million pound home and she has just started a new season of life gaining ownership of her own breasts again. Those hurdles are hellish for the strongest of women eye roll

That’s child benefit. Hopefully that’s what she meant...

You’re thinking of child benefit, not tax credits. Although, I wouldn’t have thought the Telfords would be entitled to child benefit either.

You can earn a surprising amount and still get tax credits. Is her husband self employed or an employee. If you keep you income low you can work the system. But yes, just back from skiing and wittering about tax credits. Something seriously wrong with the system...

She must be thinking of child benefit, child tax credits are for people with low incomes and people on other benefits. She has to be trolling her followers by putting that up a day after getting back from her second ski holiday this season, after the jaunt to the Cornwall mansion/disaster/no cocopops hotel and the NY break to Mauritius. No one is that stupid.....are they? It's just.....lack of awareness personified. I don't know why she's bothering to hide the address either, she has given out enough information on her page that anyone could find her address within 5 minutes.
