Just seen a video on Instagram by the Staffordshire Patriots on their first patrol At the end they say a prayer asking God to look after their leaders and they all finish with Amen By the looks of them all the only time they would go to church is if it closes and becomes a 'spoons

Yesterday, in Newcastle under Lyme they had a flag raising ceremony outside the council offices Reform had said this was needed to show our pride and identity even though there was a union flag already there There was a huge turnout

In Newcastle under Lyme, Reform were elected on a promise to cut waste and reduce spending so it's nice to see Johnathan Gullis thinks this is a good way to spend money

In the town close to where I live a huge fire destroyed an empty grade 2 listed building, it had been a landmark in the town and had stood for 170 years but been derelict for as long as I can remember Comments on socials last night " more flats for boat people" As a nation we are fucked

If anyone of those Brexit fuckwits who thought that our future outside of the EU was going to be golden as we would shackle ourselves to the arse-end of the US could they please look at what's going on with Trump and try to convince everyone that it's still a good plan

Today I turned 57, I've now reached the age my dad was when he died of a heart attack If I make it to new year's eve I'll have matched him exactly in years and days If I wake up on new year's day I'll have beaten him It's such a strange feeling of a need to beat him

So during the local elections, Reform said they would fight to keep the Staffordshire Moorlands part of Staffordshire County council and not merge with Stoke on Trent. What a surprise, they have said they aren't against it now That's two promises broken already

Found this photo of my mum and my late father when they were courting It upset me a bit as it was two people with their whole life's ahead of them but 27 years later my dad was dead and my mum no longer knows who anyone is because of Alzheimer's Such a cruel disease robbed her of these memories

I had a letter today from Reform asking for my vote on 1st May. Firstly my name was spelt wrong and secondly it's arrived a day late. Oh well I suppose it's the thought that counts

Today I had 2 packs of incontinence pants delivered for my 81 year old mum. They were left behind the bins by the side of my house. They were delivered at 16:00 and I get home at 17:00 to find the bins moved and pants gone. I hope whoever stole them gets some use from them

Yesterday my 81 year old mum received a tax bill for £1538. Due, apparently, to the freezing of the personal allowance under the conservatives.

Well last week I had to make the decision to put my mum into a care home A UTI over Christmas accelerated her dementia and left her unable to walk One day we were shopping and walking around a park feeding ducks, 2 days later she was in hospital and been there ever since How quickly life can change

Went to visit my mum in hospital today, she's 81. A lovely lady in the bed opposite started to chat with me and then said it was nice I have come to visit my sister. "Do I look that old?" I asked . She didn't respond. Don't you just love them

Well every day is a school day My mum has been in hospital since new year's eve, she started out with a UTI and now has complications with her Alzheimer's and vascular dementia meaning she can't walk I have visited her in the day and she has been fine, at night she is vile. Sundowning apparently

So my mum has had to go into hospital after she became very ill over Christmas. She has Alzheimer's and I've been given some forms about becoming a full time carer for her. If I pack in work I can claim £69.70 a week How the hell is that going to pay my bills

Haha, so Elon Musk doesn't think Nigel Farage is upto the job and Reform needs a new leader. All that arse kissing to get $100m worked well then

Took my mum out for a drive today and we went past a field of sheep "Look at all those" she said "What are they?" I asked She took a while and then said "Pelicans" she then got upset so I said "They are clouds with legs" She laughed and then said "You daft sod they are sheep" Bloody Alzheimer's

Me and my 81 year old mum. She's got Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, sometimes she knows who I am and other times she doesn't, I'm not sure she even what Christmas is now but every so often the mother I knew from when I was younger reappears

The people of Stoke say they live in a sh*t hole. Perhaps if they got out a bit more instead of slagging their home city and the surrounding area off on social media they might see it differently

Is there anyone who seriously thinks that a millionaire leader of a political party surrounding himself with millionaires and billionaires is going to have the best interests of the general public who are on the breadline as one of his priorities?
