This so resonates on so many levels,I don't know you apart from on here,but you seem like a pretty wonderful human,doing your best with so many barriers,it's understandable that it builds up and letting it out better than not,but draining for sure.

This is utterly ridiculous and cruel,surely they can't get away with that? Another energy sapping,upsetting thing for you to fight for.So sorry you are having to deal with this x

Everyone should be fighting for Universal Healthcare and disability rights. Health is fragile. You can become disabled or chronically ill in an instant. It’s not a moral failing. It can wipe out your savings and leave you destitute. Healthcare is a basic human right.

An example of how the NHS is already privatised and why it always leads to worse service. If I was this irresponsible in my job, I would be rightly fired. I hate this culture of not penalising or cancelling contracts with 3rd party suppliers when they are routinely unperforming.

Awful and such a toll on you to have to be on top of all of this,whilst do unwell.This is unsafe,and so so worrying,what if you weren't so on it? So sorry you are having a pretty awful day x

JB @justmejb.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
This is atrocious and so frustrating for you,no way is this acceptable,really hope sorted in time for everything else you need.Vent away,you have every right x

Now that sounds like progress,di hope it all goes well for you.Take care 😊

We are lucky the roofer is very considerate and fits us in between other jobs,so not continuous.Just having another person around,makes it strangely hard to carry on as normal! Hope you manage to look after yourself through all this,and the cats behave!

JB @justmejb.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

The unknowing must add to the trauma of the parents,a clearly flawed trial didn't reveal reliable truth,the only person who really knows is LL herself.This must surely meet the CCRC criteria.An absolute mess.Safeguarding seemingly took a back seat.

Here’s an idea. Buy some RNLI Christmas cards. And then send them to Reform: Reform UK Freepost RTLT-ZXHY-KSDC 83 Victoria Street London SW1H OHW (They pay for every Freepost item received).
shop.rnli.org
Christmas Cards | RNLI Shop
Every purchase of our charity Christmas cards from the RNLI makes a lifesaving difference. The profits will help to prevent tragedies at sea for years to come.
