I better introduce myself.
I'm Chrissy👋
I'm Scottish, mother to an autistic son (who is amazing by the way) and partner to a great guy (who is also a pain in the bum).
Life can be hard but I use my experiences to try and help others because life is too short to be angry, bitter and twisted.

Hello all, it's been a while! I've been busy looking after my son and battling the school. We're at the point where the wee man is burnt out and so am I. We've got some major decisions to make.

I never thought I'd see so much deceit, hatred, anger, callousness and gaslighting from politicians in my life. When/how did it start? The 70s/80s? Decades of shite being spewed? Seeing how far people could be pushed? Who could be manipulated? Now rich are in control.
Is there anyone to stop it?

How do you tell an autistic 7 year old that Hitler murdered the disabled?
Context. On the walk home he told me his class watched Newsround and it was about a war. A man shouting at an army and he was bad to disabled people. That these people were in a camp. He then asked if he was disabled. 😥

Are Labour trying to keep the Brexiters happy or keeping the EU at arms length so they can continue the Tories plan of selling the UK to private organisations.🤔 Make it make sense. We need the EU.
"We need closer ties with the EU and now they are letting us know the door is ajar. All we have to do is push it open. And yet we cannot even find the strength to do it”

Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer are making a huge mistake in not openly embracing offers to cut red tape

Morning, it's a wild start so far. We live in a top floor flat so it could be interesting later.😱 Schools are shut so it's a cozy day for us. They did say about remote learning but I can't see that happening. 🫣 #StormEowyn

Benefit cheats could be stripped of driving licences.
Someone innocently exceeding the Carer's earning limit is charged with fraud, can't drive, many not be able to work, can't support family, needs more benefits.
Hawks are appeased
No equivalent sanctions for tax abusers, launderers, real crooks

Were you missold a car loan? Well those responsible are about to get the government to pay for their bad practice.
"Some analysts estimate that total payments could reach as much as £30bn".
But no money for children in poverty or pensioners WFA. #StarmersLabour

Morning all. My thought of the day is.
The propaganda and gaslighting over the decades has worked. We're at a point where people don't know the facts and don't even try to find what the truth is. They take the words of others in blind faith and regurgitate the lies. Now we have hate and rage.

Feeling nostalgic. I miss the days when journalists actually did their job by investigating information given to them and calling out the lies. Now, any bullshit is deemed newsworthy.

What's your view on Starmer?
Is he following the Tories plan to sell the UK to private corporations?
A right wing nutter who's power hungry? (He'll happily go after pensioners and the disabled).
A plant to push the public so far that they think Reform is the answer?
Or add your own.

Are Labour pushing people to vote Reform 🤔 We know austerity doesn't work, why do they keep pushing it.
Keir Starmer says UK Treasury will be "ruthless" on public spending cuts.
It's continuation of Tory austerity.
How many will be deprived of food, housing, healthcare, education ...?
Lives sacrificed to appease corporations, the rich and neoliberal dogma

Morning. Another cold start to the day! Wee man is back at school today and his anxiety started rising yesterday. I hope the school implements their plan of extra breaks etc to help him. He struggles so much in a mainstream environment.

Finally we have peace but the wee man has only 3 days until school starts and he needs to relax. My view is, if a family member wants to visit/stay with you for 10 days, say NO!

I'm hiding in the kitchen, keeping an eye on the meat 😉 with a bottle of Aldi's Ballycastle to ease my rage but now I'm managing to smile. 😆😅 It really is amazing how 1 person can really rub you up the wrong way.
