Couldn’t give ATOS
Christopher Spivey
As it so happens, I know someone who appeared on the Jeremy Kyle Show.
What’s more, he was a perfect candidate for Jelly Kyle to have a right fucking pop at. You see, he didn’t work, didn’t give a fuck about much, wasn’t very bright and was asked on the show for being a bad boyfriend and father.
Yet the really strange thing is; Jelly went really easy on him – none of the usual shouting in the face, calling him a cunt and general humiliation that many who take part in the show are subjected to.
And this led me to believe that many of the ‘guests’ on the show are just actors, simply following a script alongside an irate Jelly.
Course, that is by the by now since the show has been permanently axed following the suicide of one of Jelly’s guests – after he failed a lie detector test:
ITV today permanently axed The Jeremy Kyle Show after a grandfather was found dead just a week after being filmed for the controversial programme.
Network chief Carolyn McCall admitted it was ‘the right time for the show to end’ given the ‘gravity of recent events’ after an outcry followed the death of Steven Dymond, 63, with MPs having urged the broadcaster to pull the programme.
Mr Dymond took a lie-detector test on May 2 to convince fiancée Jane Callaghan he had been faithful, but was told he had failed. His body was found in his Portsmouth flat a week later on May 9 where he had been dead for days… Source
Now notice that in the second paragraph it clearly states:
“with MPs having urged the broadcaster to pull the programme.”
Also note “MPs” as in plural.
However, I will come back to that because first I want to discuss the axing of the show, although to my mind it is about time someone took an axe to the arrogant cunt Kyle.
I mean, closing the show down just because someone killed themselves is a bit drastic don’t cha think – unless of course there is more to this story than first meets the eye.
After all, the show was a very popular money-spinner although as far as I can see, once you have watched it 2 or 3 times it becomes a tad tedious & repetitive.
But nevertheless, the fact is that no one forced this mush who allegedly killed himself to appear on the show… Indeed, I know for a fact that the producers do not give a fuck if you appear or not because I was contacted by the show in March 2018:

Now, at this stage I should point out that I avoid using phones like the plague. And despite Zeta posing with Jelly in her profile picture I did not connect the inquiry with the show.
After all, in the past I have been contacted by both the BBC and Chanel 5 asking me to take part in programs about something that I am barred by law (a restraining order) from talking about… So I replied thus:

Which to me is a perfectly reasonable request.
However, Zeta then replied:

Now I find that very, very strange. I mean why the fuck could she not discuss the matter in a private direct message on Facebook? Did she not want me to have recorded proof of what she wanted to discuss with me?
Course, at this point I checked out Zeta’s profile and discovered that she worked for the Jelly Kyle show, which was a bit of a shock because I haven’t been a bad boy in over 23 years.
However, having said that I do know that Jelly Kyle does occasionally do shows that don’t involve hillbillies trying to kill each other… And so I replied:

And that was that… No further conversation and to this day I still don’t know what she wanted.
However, there you have proof that the show does not hound people to appear. Moreover, I doubt that there is a person over 14 in the cuntry who does not know what goes on with the people who do appear on the show.
And since this now-dead mush was on the show to do a lie detector test and as such probably contacted the show himself, despite knowing that he would fail and as a consequence be subjected to a Jelly tirade, I really cannot see how Jelly or the show Producers can be blamed for his death.
After all, the fella was 62 years old, not some easily led 16 yr old misfit.
Course, Kyle’s show is not the first to be cancelled because of the death of a guest. In fact I think that honour goes to Noel Edmunds and his “Late Late Breakfast Show”:
The Late, Late Breakfast Show was Edmonds’ first Saturday evening light entertainment show on the BBC. Presented by Edmonds live on Saturday evenings from 4 September 1982 to 8 November 1986, initially with co-host Leni Harper, it also featured Mike Smith and John Peel.
The programme is remembered for several accidents during its regular “Give it a Whirl” stunt slot; in particular the death of Michael Lush. The show was cancelled by the BBC on 15 November 1986, following the death of Lush two days earlier. While rehearsing a bungee jump to be performed live on the show, Michael Lush plunged 120 feet (37 m) to his death when his rope came loose. Noel Edmonds quit the show immediately afterwards… Source
And once again, I seem to remember a big public outcry at the time, although I cannot remember if there were any hand-wringing MP’s calling for the show to be axed… Mind you, Noel soon got over the tragedy as I feel certain Jelly will too.
Yet I do know that like Steven Dymond on the Kyle show, no one forced Michael Lush to appear on the Noel Edmunds show… In fact Lush would have most definitely asked to appear.
Nevertheless, the point of this article is to point out that it is all extremely hypocritical of our nonce MPs and the brain-dead public to be calling for the Jelly Kyle show to be axed whilst ignoring the thousands upon thousands who have died – many by suicide – after being declared fit for work by ATOS:
Nearly 90 people a month are dying after being declared fit for work, according to new data that has prompted campaigners and Labour leadership contenders to call for an overhaul of the government’s welfare regime.
Statistics released by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) revealed that during the period December 2011 and February 2014 2,380 people diedafter their claim for employment and support allowance (ESA) ended because a work capability assessment (WCA) found they were found fit for work.
Ministers insisted that the data could not be used to link claimant deaths to its welfare reforms, but the figures focused attention on the government’s fit-for-work assessment process, which has been dogged by controversy in recent years… Source
Now there is a program that really needs shutting down, yet I do not hear any outcry from our self-serving, perverted MP’s or the ever so righteous mushy-pea-brained public… Just sayin’.

May 15, 2019 @ 7:19 pm
It is indeed strange the haste in which ITV shut the show down. Perhaps these lie detectors results etc were deliberately falsified? It would certainly make for good telly winding the mentally challenged up by telling them they lied?
May 18, 2019 @ 8:13 pm
Hi Wolfe tone- that is EXACTLY what I thought in the first instance. Would explain the guilt ITV felt so shut the show. I definitely think there’s more to this..
May 15, 2019 @ 10:34 pm
Is it any surprise that IQ levels are on the decline with brainless shit like that pumped into people’s skulls. I try to find things that educate me, something that makes me think.
Like here.
May 15, 2019 @ 11:12 pm
Excellent point Chris, something is definitely afoot here, is it some kind of psyop???
May 16, 2019 @ 5:10 am
Perhaps an attempt to flush the whole thing out of mind before an inquiry reveals that lie detectors are actually far worse than simply being ‘unreliable’.
May 16, 2019 @ 8:59 am
Good riddance to the arrogant cunt. Apparently the ‘ex’ gambling addict tried to get into Royal Ascot without a ticket. He said to the doorman Don’t you know who I am?
The doorman said Yes I do. You’re not coming in without a ticket . Fuck off.
Cunt

Often thought Jezza was the fucking anti-christ. Glad this is over. Totally represented the insipid and divisive culture the monsters are trying to create. It was perpetually exploitative, even if the guests were too dumb to realise.
May 16, 2019 @ 10:12 am
As soon as I learned that Jezzer’s dad was an accountant for the Queen Mother my hackles went up, ANYTHING to do with that pit of vipers is bad news as far as I’m concerned!
May 17, 2019 @ 6:46 pm
Quick update about daddy Kyle, Patrick kyle was accountant and private secretary to the queen mother and when he retired he was awarded the C.V.O, medal by the Royal Victorian Order. Mommy Kyle was a clerk at Coutts, the ‘royal bank’ and died two or three years ago.
Daddy Kyle aged 85 didn’t let the grass grow and now has a new ‘love’ interest, there’s life in the old dog yet ‘eh? Perhaps he drinks young blood too?
May 16, 2019 @ 12:05 pm
Q – Do you know who I am?
A – No, but if you ask the nurse, I’m sure she’ll be able to tell you.
Best way of dealing with arrogant scum imho
Choosing not to have a tel-aviv-zion (electric jew) of my own, I was fortunate in never having seen this crap programme. I had to ask a friend, who said it was of a similar standard to Jerry Springer. No need to say any more.
May 16, 2019 @ 1:47 pm
What was so great about the Germy Vile Show was that it was broadcast just at the right time to grab the undivided , and probably unsupervised , wide-eyed and opened-mouthed attention of our homebound under 5`s.I`m sure they benefited from watching so many different adult role models openly resolving their personal issues… as only grown-ups can ?.
May 16, 2019 @ 5:22 pm
Spot on Yves, that’s exactly what it’s about!
They’ll soon have it replaced with something even more destructive.
May 16, 2019 @ 4:04 pm
Change of subject but had to get this in.
“MONSTERS IN THE PALACE” Looks great. Haven’t read it yet, got to wait until after the missus has had first read. A couple of glimpses have told me it’s a good “Fuckledy Chuckledy”. Chris back on form. Well done mate. Got your sense of humour back.
“All you supporters of Chris
Make sure you get this”
May 16, 2019 @ 7:06 pm
my earlier comment hasn’t appeared.
is that due to Chris’ restrictions?
May 16, 2019 @ 9:10 pm
Yes mate, sorry but it was too risky for me to publish.
Chris.
May 17, 2019 @ 3:45 pm
that’s fair enough Chris.
btw, do you think I was on to something there?
May 16, 2019 @ 7:21 pm
FWIW, ATOS also have the contract to supply all the IT to the BBC.
BBC and ITV are merely Tavistock at work, social engineering for the dumbed-down masses. Someone needs to have a good old look at Lime Pictures, a mega production house responsible for The Only Way is Essex. Check out their website and the two Marxist bull dykes that run it. Blimey.
This ain’t TV production, it’s positively Orwellian – all of it.
May 17, 2019 @ 3:25 pm
Lime Pictures are owned by All3Media which is owned by (((Discovery inc))).
Lime Pictures also make the White Genocide propaganda Hollyoaks.
May 17, 2019 @ 11:49 pm
Discovery in turn is owned by “The Pyramid Group”
Another Murdoch investment vehicle. At least it was a few years ago – I can’t even be arsed to look again it’s all the fucking same!
May 16, 2019 @ 7:25 pm
Daily Fail carries stories of the ‘stars’ of TOWIE daily. Ad Infinitum.
They’re all in it together. Geordie Grieg’s family associations are a veritable Who’s Who of British upper class Satanism.
May 16, 2019 @ 7:39 pm
Oh and Lime Pictures even has a nice little 666 concealed in their company logo! But we’re not surprised, are we?
May 16, 2019 @ 7:44 pm
The other one to have a look at is the connection between Peter Mandelson and Lord Waheed Ali, Bob Geldof and Charlie Parsons of Planet 24. Quite a few of the famous names on the RAINS list (namely Dale Winton and Vanessa Feltz) all had connections to these.
And of course it’s very likely that Geldof had his own daughter whacked after she started opening her gob about OTO and that nonce Ian Watkins.
May 16, 2019 @ 11:11 pm
It’s also well-known in the TV industry that Charlie Parsons sold coke to everyone at LWT in the 80’s including the later Blairite bigwigs like John Birt who later became DG of the BBC. The money and contacts he made started P24. Mandelson is of course head of the Alpha Lodge and is satanist No.1 in the U.K. Why the fuck do you think he’s called The Prince of Darkness?
A llot of people at P24 were suspicious that Geldof had Michael Hutchence whacked too. He had boasted to Paula Yates that “he was untouchable”.
These days Waheed Ali has some very dodgy dealings and companies with clever little devil worshipping names. It’s all out there peeps!
The TV industry is entirely dark st the top levels – and all the frightened underlings just do what the fuck they’re told.
May 17, 2019 @ 1:50 pm
Chris, The film ” Denial”.
I now believe that it`s not about the Holocaust. It is in fact a vehicle whose sole underlying and duplicitous purpose is to reinforce the Diana existence fraud and which you have been exposing .
Watch this film carefully, see how gratuitous references to Diana are inserted every so often into the script .I think that this film is designed to give its hoped for audience, a nice cosy feeling about one clean-cut group`s crusading issue whilst embedding insidiously and deeper into its subconscious mind , the unquestioning belief in that lie you`ve now nailed.

Don’t know much about these programmes as I haven’t watched TV for years, but still very interested in the comments made above.
Is it just me, or do the two managing directors look extremely similar, in a rather masculine kind of way? Bryan Kirkwood Head of Continuing Drama bears more than a passing resemblance to both of them.
Sarah Tyekiff Head of Non-Scripted Programming and Louise Sutton Head of Drama & YA both have very large ears. Coincidence?
I wonder if Angelo Abela Joint Head of Kids is bald underneath his beanie, just like Tim Compton Joint Head of Kids.
May 18, 2019 @ 12:17 am
If eyes are windows to the souls!
What souls, with this lot of talentless chancers though..
I wouldn’t give them jobs as runners myself. Idiots.
May 17, 2019 @ 5:54 pm
IMDb lists three films with the title “denial”. Here’s (part of) what it says about each.
1990 – Michael and Sara end their turbulent love affair to avoid destruction …
1998 – Couples split up after a comment at an LA dinner party sets up arguments …
2016 – Acclaimed writer and historian Deborah E. Lipstadt must battle for historical truth to prove the Holocaust actually occurred …
Yes, (((Deborah))), you prove that to my satisfaction and I’ll introduce you to my pet Unicorn.
I’m not disagreeing with you, yves. Knowing nothing about these films, I decided to look them up on IMDb.
You could well be right. The enemy of God and man does like to mix these fairy stories up, but I don’t know about this particular film, and I won’t know because I’m sick of all the wartime propaganda, and refuse to watch any of it.
That war was over before I was born, but still the atrocity propaganda continues, and it won’t stop unless people make it stop.
Even if every word (((they))) say could be proven to be the absolute truth (no, don’t laugh, I’m trying to make a point here), why should I care? I care more about the suffering of my own people than something that may or may not have happened to some bunch of weirdos which has plagued the world since time immemorial.
People, and (((others))), have lived and died, and many have suffered, throughout history. Terrible things have happened. We can’t change the past though, so why not put it behind us, whether it happened or not, learn from it where appropriate, and concentrate for once on building a future?
May 20, 2019 @ 9:14 pm
Very true,Barney. It is the “now” that we`re in and struggle for a decent level of living ,not the “then” times of the past ( or for foreign powers) .Our duty is to England ; to our English brothers and sisters .Our forebears were the Anglo-Saxons who helped give us our heritage, our recognized national character and our honest traditions (now being eroded away bit by bit) .It is “here ” on this “emerald isle ” ,that our energies and talents should now be free again ,directed solely toward the future good of our children`s children ;not burdened with carrying the past mistakes of a broken,useless, ,corrupt and truly Godforsaken Europe.
May 17, 2019 @ 7:18 pm
There must be a big empty warehouse somewhere in Machester up for rent now then?
The big holding pen Jezzer kept his ‘guests’ in after Big Steve and the lads grabbed them from shop doorways and alleyways around the country. They probably had a ratio of one real ‘guest’ to twenty or thirty actors, just so that someone, somewhere would occasionally say ‘No it’s not fixed I know him from sitting outside my local Aldi / Lidl / Asda / etc’!
I personally know two of his ‘guests’ the big lady, Sharon, nicknamed ‘Blossom’ who had all the tats on her face and body and was registered disabled! She used to live by me, but that isn’t a suprise, she has lived all over Brighton and has been a neighbour to most Brighton residents at one time or another! And the other one was Gemma the girl who had all her teeth fixed by Jezzer’s show about two years back! If I wasn’t such a suspicious old codger I’d probably fall for it like the majority of the brain transplant donors who are glued to this type of crap and live their lives through the pretend lives of these actors!
May 17, 2019 @ 10:54 pm
Distraction Distraction Distraction !
My theory is that I strongly suspect the suicide of the bloke could well be bogus, first of all I really do think that the idea the guy phoned up the Jeremy Kyle show 300 times to try to get on the show highly unlikely.
I read that gem of information in the dreaded Metro earlier. I mean did he have a notebook next to the phone and say to himself on the 300th go ” I’ve had 299 goes maybe this number 300 will be the one ha ha.
I think that the more likely truth is that after 14 years of a crap daytime programme, the viewing numbers were dropping rapidly and they decided to pull it and bung in a death to perpetuate the feel bad factor in just one of their MK Ultra formula designed by evil cretins programmes, don’t worry folks an even more horrible replacement is coming your way soon.
I’ve just had a letter from a debt collection company called advantis advising me that I owe hmrc £3,000 in overpaid tax credits ? ? Their logo is a capstone of a pyramid with a hole in it Bastardos L8ers j
May 18, 2019 @ 9:28 am
Something to consider, Jimbo. I’m no expert, and we have to be careful where zog’s “agencies” are concerned, but in the case of a “normal” debt, once it’s been sold to a debt-collection firm, it’s paid.
The original agreement (I’ll repeat that I’m referring to non-government debt here) was with the original supplier/lender and NOT with the debt collectors, so there’s no longer a valid agreement.
My understanding is that the debt (whether valid or not) is NOT generally “passed on” to the company’s own debt-collection department, but SOLD for a reduced amount to a separate company hoping to make a bob or two.
In buying the debt, this second company is PAYING the debt, and by accepting payment, the original company is clearing your account.
I suspect all that doesn’t apply where HMRC is concerned, but in general, once a debt is taken over by a debt collection firm, your account is cleared, and YOU OWE NOTHING.

In the case of credit cards, for instance, the original credit agreement will normally have a clause which allows the debt to be sold on (assigned).
It is true that when debt PURCHASE companies have debts assigned to them, they probably buy them for a tenth of their value and then hope to make money by forcing the debtor to pay back the full value. The original creditor is believed to set the original debt off against tax. So it is a win-win for both of them.
Lots of people have tried to argue that this means that the debt no longer exists. I have not seen one example of where this has been successful. Remember, the courts and the current laws are controlled by TPTB

I doubt Jimbo’s ‘debt’ has been assigned (sold) to them. Advantis is a debt COLLECTION company which works on behalf of clients such as HMRC. Be careful – HMRC play dirty.
This seems to be a really helpful website

May 18, 2019 @ 12:00 pm
PLEASE PLEASE don’t take advice based on ‘freeman of the land’. I have been made bankrupt by TPTB and had my house stolen. Believe me, I have spent countless hours researching the debt laws and what the debt industry gets up to. Sadly, I haven’t seen ANY court cases or other evidence where the FMOTL methods have been successful (and I really wanted to believe in them when I first started investigating). You would think that the FMOTL promoters would be more than happy to confirm their successes by posting transcripts of wins in court. In fact, I have my suspicions that FMOTL may actually be a scam to put debtors in a worse position than if they had tried to defend themselves using the current laws. I have noted that time and time again, the people promoting the FMOTL methods emphasise that you have to be really careful to use the correct words, and only the people skilled in FMOTL will know what they are – which they say accounts for people failing to win in court. On the forums, also, I have noted that once the cases go to court, the FMOTL ‘advisers’ suddenly stop advising.
May 18, 2019 @ 8:12 pm
I should have said that there are other ways of fighting these parasites. They are supposed to abide by the law regarding assignment protocol and the law relating to production of the credit agreement, and they often fail on these counts.
I just wish I had known about this ten years ago, before I had the original default CCJ awarded against me.
May 17, 2019 @ 10:56 pm
On a lighter note.
I hadn’t heard this for years and probably not the original but driving to work I heard this which is the original. And I can’t get it out of my head now.

Quite right,
Brian Epstein was a Jewish drug addict,

Mustn’t confuse the two.
May 18, 2019 @ 6:41 pm
Thanks to Barney and Curious Girl for your advice regarding the so called overpayment of tax credits. My strategy will be to appeal because I really don’t think I was overpaid, I did some research and found out that if you make an offer to repay the debt say over 10 years they have been known to write it off.
Anyways I have decided to go to a specialist accountants to fight my case for me even if I have to pay them it will be worth it if the tax collectors back down which I believe they often do.
Meanwhile my ambition to go on the Jeremy Kyle show has been scuppered and there is no further reason for my existence goodbye everyone it has been nice knowing you, now where did I put my bottle of cyanide tablets? Ho ho L8ers j
May 20, 2019 @ 4:09 pm
Probably the safest course of action in your case Jimbo. Better not to play games with zog’s enforcers.
Thanks too for your information, CuriousGirl. I still think some of the FMOTL information could be worthwhile, though I’d really only find out if I were to test it, but I’ve always thought it wouldn’t be a good idea to tell the cops that “their law” doesn’t apply to me because I’m a Free Man On The Land (FMOTL).
It’s always seemed to me that I might just as well tell a bunch of thugs that they’re not allowed to beat me up on a Thursday. That’s about how much notice I’d expect the pole-lice to take if I were to attempt to explain that the parliamentary legislation they’re paid to impose on us isn’t really “the law”.
May 20, 2019 @ 4:08 pm
Jimbo……I came across this on the internet, I do not know if it is of any use ?

Hi ,regarding the money issues raised by the good folk here, perhaps this link ;particularly the section on the 3LETTER PROCESS, might prove useful (.I think there are a number of successes attested to) .This site started following a ‘coup d`etat” of GOODF.com .which had helped bring truth seekers like Veronica to our attention..”Community” is growing exponentially..
May 26, 2019 @ 12:21 am
Chris,
I couldn’t agree with you more about the DWP and ATOS. I am disabled, partially paralyzed on my left side, severe cardiac issues (9 heart attacks) and a congenital vascular disorder (I have survived 2 aortic aneurysms but now a third has started, I am inoperable and have jus recently been told I am now terminal). I was getting ESA but when I got married it was taken away because my wife worked more than 25 hours a week. It didn’t matter that she earned barely more than minimum wage (the amount the goverment feels is adequate for ONE person to live on), they wouldn’t have cared if she made £50 an hour, as long as she wasn’t working more than 25 hours a week. We instantly lost 1/3 of our income, and no way to fight it.
This left me with only PIP as MY only source of income, but I was also subject to assesments by ATOS to determine if I was still disabled enough to get it. On one such assesment I had to travel so far and was subjected to so much stress it caused one of my aneurysms, i almost died, spent 6 days in hospital on a morphine drip (not as much fun as it sounds) and then was on bedrest for 6 weeks. After that ATOS said I would only have home assesments from then on. Great, the next one was at my home, went okay but not pleasant.
Fast forward to a few months ago. I recieved a letter from ATOS notifying me that I was to travel to Slough (25 miles away) for a PIP assesment. What? I called them and let them know that I was DISABLED, i couldn’t travel that far, and besides, I was supposed to have home assesments. The guy was a bit miffed but agreed to make a home appointment but pointed out to me that I could only re-scedule once or I would be penalized (loss of PIP). Fine. The day of my assesment arrived. The person was to arrive between 10:00 AM and 12:00 noon. I waited. And waited. And waited some more. At 11:30 I looked for my phone, it took me some time but just as I reached it it rang. I was going to call ATOS but it turns out they were calling me. At 11:37 AM. To let me know that the person coming to see me called in sick and could we reschedule? Sure, go ahead.
Two weeks later, same setup, same timeframe. At 11:45 my phone rings, it was ATOS, the person that was supposed to see me had to cancel due to “laptop issues”. He then informed me that i probably wouldn’t get an assesment but if I could give me any new information he would add it to my file. I had been informed 2 days before by my vascular surgeon that I was terminal. Yeah, i had new information for him. I wept my heart out as i tried to explain my health situation, but I managed to get through it. Afterwards he thanked me and told me they would take care of it. All done, right? Like hell it was. A letter arrived from ATOS letting me know they had scheduled a home assesment a week from the date of the letter. What? Oh well, best get it over with.
This time the lady arrived with 30 minutes left on the clock. She was a former Mental Health nurse (no experience with cardiac or vascular conditions but handy nonetheless because by now I was losing my sanity). She was brusque and condesending, and appeared to have made up her mind before arriving. We went through all the questions, she performed a perfunctory physical exam and then asked me about any new information. Uh oh.
I started to explain but in spite of my best attempts the fllodgates opened. For 15 minutes I cried and sobbed through the explanation that I was dying, my life is ending and there is nothing I can do. At the end of the explanation she she looked at me and simply asked if I was finished because she had all she needed. A mental health nurse? She had just witnessed a terminally ill disabled man have a complete and total breakdown and that was all she had to say? Jesus H. Christ! Yeah ATOS, way to hire!
I now await the outcome, I won’t hear for a few weeks but I am not expecting it to be good. Thank you DWP and ATOS for screwing around with a dying man and dropping him to his knees in tears.

That post needs publishing in a newspaper.

Nowhere near as bad as your situation, Jamie F, and I fully sympathise for what that’s worth. These bigots that decide in advance that they’re not going to help really make me mad.
Five years ago, I had an “assessment” that concluded that my disability makes my present accommodation unsuitable for my needs, and that I need to move from here. I repeat, that was FIVE YEARS AGO, and I’m still here.
Four years ago I ended up in casualty (we’re supposed to call it “A&E” nowadays) with heart failure.
That story is a miracle in itself. Another week and I wouldn’t have survived. Better not get into that though or this will turn into a book.
Since then I’ve tried everything to get rehoused, but I’m in privately-rented accommodation, so “as one door closes, another gets slammed in your face”.
Last year, having had no luck with organisations that are supposed to help, I was advised to contact something called “STEPS”. No idea what that means.
The woman came to see me twice, the second time without an appointment. She just turned up unexpectedly one morning before I was dressed, with an “accomplice” (“trainee”) who adequately demonstrated his (really both of their) lack of respect by sitting on my clean clothes that I hadn’t yet found the energy to put away after washing.
The woman had already decided to do nothing, saying my accommodation isn’t a problem “because I’m on the ground floor” (of a 4-storey block of flats).
She was secretive and unhelpful. She said she’d submit a form (no indication what) to “the council” (Town? County?) and that I was to contact her “when I heard from them”.
That was last December, and I haven’t seen her since, though I’ve had two ‘phone calls “reminding” me to ring her “when I hear from the council”, as if that’s ever going to happen, the lying cow.
That woman’s a lying parasite, getting paid to maintain the illusion that there’s help available when the truth is that she doesn’t give a shit.
Apologies for strong language, Chris, but it’s fucking disgusting the way anyone with a disability is treated in this fucking country. If they spent a tenth of the money they waste fobbing people off to actually help people, things would be a lot easier all round.
I know a housebound woman on Warfarin who isn’t being monitored. They won’t call it murder when she’s found dead one day of a brain hemorrhage. No, just another “useless eater” written off because she’s no longer able to work to make some millionaire even richer.
I’ve managed to stop most of the dangerous drugs with their dangerous “side-effects” (intentional effects imho), and now only take the diuretics (because breathing becomes difficult if I don’t), plus a Hawthorn supplement (about half to one gramme a day) for all things heart and circulation related, and a Borax solution for my arthritis. When I’m away from home I take Boron capsules (6 to 12 grammes a day) rather than carry the Borax solution.
More about Borax here for anyone interested.

Oops! – That’s 6-12 milligrammes of Boron a day when I’m away, NOT 6-12 grammes (which would be a thousand times as much).
Hawthorn’s ok. No risk of an overdose, and no “side-effects”. Pick your own or buy it as a supplement. No danger there except for traffic pollution if you pick it from the side of a road.
Six to twelve MILLIGRAMMES of Boron though.
