It's not like she doesn't know, either - it was pointed out to her last month. "I can't endorse that."

That’s weird. Do you think she’s advertising it / received it gifted without declaring it? Or is it just Vonny being Vonny?

Just Vonny being Vonny!

She’s shown that pasta thing a lot I think it’s some kind of middle class status symbol she’s latched onto so she won’t give a duck about GC, she’s only saying that response on Twitter for woke points

Are cynical social media influencers exploiting backlash against online abuse to deflect scrutiny? – Laura Waddell
Gossip is old news. Shakespeare, in fact, was among the first to commit the word to print, his characters frequently getting the wrong end of tittle tattle to both comic and tragic outcome.

The thing I love most is the lack of naming! It means the subjects can't whip their followers into a frenzy and attack the writer. It must be killing them! It's soooooooooo good!I posted this in the Jack thread but she's obviously talking about Vonny too!!

I am like you @Imainlylurk , I need to book a Grunka Holiday and probably a nap afterwards
Thanks for your hard work. Much appreciated.
You need to spill who the creep at the National is, though!
But Laura Waddell is also a self-publicist who is not very truthful. Laura on Vonny is like Aldi declaring war on Lidl.I posted this in the Jack thread but she's obviously talking about Vonny too!!

Oh come ON! Laura on Vonny is more like Marks and Sparks versus Poundland, if anything I feel a bit sorry for Vonny, she's so completely out of her depth here. They're not remotely on the same level.
With respect, you deserve the kudos for all your screenshots and great posts. Laura just swiped all the brilliant detectivework from this forum, but added very little herself.
She's a lazy writer, and no thinker which is why the Scotsman call her "Laura Puddle" amongst themselves - she's not deep.
Remember what I said about the National pay columnists? Laura gets a lot, lot less. She's at the Scotsman because she costs nothing, and no-one reads her copy, which is why it is packed with poor grammar and clumsy writing.

Well, I mean, what she's done with that column this week is basically write the first cogent piece I've ever read on these types of social media grifters, so hats off to her, they should give her a pay rise.
Yes, not many features on questionable scottish social media personalities, because the Vonnies of this world are small fish. It is fun to gossip here, but her story won't sell more copies of the Scotsman - although of course there have been features written about bigger social media personalities and catfishing.
Vonny is a terrible chancer. But also Laura Puddle is a lazy narcissist who wants to boost her "profile." This week she skimmed the forums and swiped other people's work from online for print. She won't be getting any pay rises. Quite the opposite: she's only there for as long as she fills space without costing the paper.

I don't want to continue this conversation (if you feel that much about Laura W then you could always make a new thread, though I doubt it would get much traffic) but I also *really* don't understand why you seem to be blaming a freelancer for the poor wages they get paid. But anyhoo! Onwards!

I wonder what it feels like to read something like that and think 'yep, that's me she's referring to'! And to know that most people in those same circles will also definitely know that you're the unnamed person she's talking about.
Wonder what colour her mood ring turned when she saw it?
