I'm really fucking sick of this shit. Just get them to sign a form that they were offered treatment which they refused and then send them home. Job done. news.sky.com/story/nhs-st...
Patients refusing to be treated by non-white staff as NHS reports shocking rise in racism
Paul Awah, a Bedfordshire-based diagnostic radiographer originally from Nigeria, said: "It's definitely got worse – people are more expressive."

Always hilarious to me that the true story of JK Rowling's harrowing and #relatable story of writing while unemployed was actually "she was fired from Amnesty International (!!) for writing her dumb novel on company time" m.economictimes.com/magazines/pa...
My little collection!! Kindly delivered to me by my kind neighbour, who had been in the area…!! Cheers…!! 🍻
1. Amnesty International has withstood threats from death squads and dictators. But it could not stand up to JK Rowling and the anti-trans movement she finances. It has apologized for calling those groups "anti-rights" after legal threats. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The organization has stood up to dictators and death squads, but Rowling and the UK's anti-speech laws were apparently too much.

NEW: Sir Jonathon Porritt, arrested under Terrorism law outside Westminster Magistrates Court. As police escorted him away he said "I am a supporter of Palestine Action, trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism." www.wedonotcomply.org

This heatwave is not doing my epilepsy symptoms much good. Felt dizzy & disoriented whilst out shopping this morning. Fortunately, didn’t have a seizure…
To help you make up your mind @shirazturvey.co.uk !!
Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan
Decided to cut some logs this afternoon. Checked chainsaw for oil & fuel then tried to start. It spluttered for a millisecond or two then stopped. Couldn’t restart. Would usually ask neighbour for help but he’s away for a few days. Oh well…
G’son said, when his father mentioned going to ‘spoons, “Wetherspoon’s is for people who want to get drunk but cheap drunk”!!
Dressed crab (from y’day’s purchase). OH has been at it all morning…!! 🦀🦀
Went to Bridport so OH could hand in her entries to Melplash Show. Came home £100 lighter following visits to Wine World, Bridport & Felicity’s Farm Shop…!!
I said nothing when they came for Laurence Fox. I said nothing when they came for Russell Brand. And I said nothing when they came for Andrew Tate. And I remain perfectly comfortable with all of those decisions!
Every time I watch a garden makeover prog, I’m reminded of this…!! youtube.com/shorts/4pGz8...

Saw trailer for Commonwealth Games & wondered when DJT will demand USA compete??
Well…looks like all that travelling, excitement, stress etc over the past few days has finally caught up with me…exhausted. Am drugged up to eyeballs so hopefully won’t have a seizure…
Hooray!! We’ve got our water supply back!! Had a shower to “freshen up”. Still don’t think dishes will get done but got laundry in washing machine!!
Tues afternoon, whilst OH is visiting her friend, is my turn to do housework. Today, however, no water supply, so can’t do dishes & too hot at moment to vacuum. Well, watching TV it is, then…
Still no word from South West Water on when our supply will be restored or what support will be given to people on their priority list, like me…

Recently, Met Police raided a Quaker Meeting House , forcing entry to arrest 6 young women attending a meeting about the climate crisis & Gaza. but someone whose policy proposals include the setting up of killing fields is free to stand for parliament 😐 .. That's a bit horrifying isn't it ?
Kai Stephens is running for the British Democrats in Clacton. He was radicalised into far right politics when a teenager & has been active in Patriotic Alternative & Homeland. He promotes violence, such as posting that he wants to see "killing fields" of migrants & minorities, not deportations
A great evening at Passyunk Avenue, Waterloo, watching @redsox.com scrape a 3-2 win over @newyorkmetsnym.bsky.social with these guys…!!
These 2 assholes decided it was a good idea to assault my partner and subject us both to transphobia. It happened in Castle Meadow, Norwich at around 16:55 and the next 15 minutes after they came back twice to subject us to transphobia and tell us to die in a river. . Make them famous.
