Trying to stand up to the bullies and keep my faith in kindness.

It is with a broken heart that I have to share the devastating news that my amazing wife Katy has lost her battle with cancer and passed away. If she touched your life in some small way, please consider donating to Dog’s Trust, using the link below. www.justgiving.com/page/katy-wrathall
I feel incredibly lucky that Katy chose to share her life with me and I have many wonderful memories that I cherish. I have been overwhelmed by the reactions of those of you that have also been fortunate enough to know Katy. She really was a force of nature, her kindness, intelligence and sharp sense of humor were matched only by her unwavering belief in fairness. She had a profound sense of justice, always standing up for what was right and never tolerating inequality, whether it was towards people or animals.
My life has been made immeasurably better thanks to her unfailing love, support and encouragement over the years. If you have also been positively affected by knowing her, I would be deeply grateful if you would consider making a donation to Dogs Trust-a charity Katy believed in with all her heart. Her love for animals, especially rescue dogs (as Sam, Spud, Ezzie and Mouse* would affirm), was something she carried with her every day. It feels like the perfect way to continue her selfless legacy of kindness and care.

I wish there was a political party we could trust to govern ethically, honestly and respectfully. They all throw their promises out the window and look after themselves.

Could people stop using the word “war” when the correct word is “genocide”.

Older women often become increasingly isolated, add to that a terminal illness and you become invisible to friends and a duty to family.

Rant: I’ve m received a message from the hospital notifying me of an appointment. It doesn’t say who with apart from the department, or what for. I have been trying to ring to find out but nobody answers the phone and there are no other contact details. And they wonder why I feel anxious.

Do you remember Blair pressurising the Attorney General to rule that attacking Iraq would be legal? Do you remember the Dodgy Dossier used by Blair to convince people Iraq was an imminent existential threat. Do you remember it was all lies used to back the US? Do you think Starmer remembers?

Netanyahu is trying to replace social media images of suffering Palestinians and the destruction of their homes… with those of suffering Israelis and their destroyed homes. So he needs to: 1) bait Iran to attack and 2) cut all comms out of Gaza. Our mainstream media will swallow it whole.

The world isn't silent on Gaza - this is by far the most vocal I have seen the general public on a political issue in my lifetime. I have also never seen a bigger difference between the anger of the public and the inaction of specific institutions and governments. That's the crucial disconnect.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.
