These fights are *normal* to get the help people need.
No one is getting diagnosed without similar horror stories.
So when I hear about over diagnosis?

A family I know just got an autism diagnosis for their son. It came after a four year wait that itself came after years of fighting to even get on the list.

I reckon I’d need a minimum of £20m to sell out the country. Although let’s say £100m so there’s a bit of a safety net 🤭
Wes Streeting has received £225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

When I first brought this up about 7 years ago in the wake of Brexit - an elderly gentleman rang into the local radio station I was appearing on and said that "while he respected my opinion" I should be shot.
That was it for me. After a lifetime of poppy wearing, I stopped.

Flags don’t mean what they used to just months ago. I’ve written about how I think the same is happening to the poppy.
One thing I noticed today on that topic: so many people are wearing poppies that look nothing like the various ones the Royal British Legion sells…

The former Duke of York
Once gave twelve million quid
To a women he said he’d never met
For a thing he “never did”
The King took his titles away
So he isn’t a Prince anymore
But you’ll never see him break a sweat
While he’s still above the law

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....
Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.
It's time for Proportional Representation.

Politicians from Labour, Tories, and Reform are currently inciting hatred and violence against disabled people.
The media is complicit in this as well.
They are knowingly harming and killing disabled people
And too much of the public is ignorant, so go along with it.

Genuinely why is the BBC running push alerts every single time an asylum seeker does anything bad?
They do not do this every time a white man assaults someone or murders someone. It is an endless scaremongering tactic completely unbefitting a national broadcaster.
