Freedom of speech (again)

I wasn't going to blog today as i wanted a rest from after the last post, But a few things have happened that has got me angry.

First of all remember my first post about this (about Liam Stacey), well now it has gone further. It is now a crime to to call someone a cunt, basically our lawmakers have decided they know what is best for us.

The second thing is a advert banned from buses for being "offencive" (Mayor Johnson's word), the background on this is that a gay campaign group run a bus ad saying "Get over it" ( i have no problem with this), well in return some religious group decided to run one of their own, basically same words but with opposite meaning, again i was not offended, How ever Mayor Johnson has decided that he will be offended on my behalf. Enough i say, this is going to far.

the third thing that happened was our caring government decided that if our cigarettes where not on show then no-one would smoke ( but what would they do without all the tax revenue?) .

Anyway while the third is the lesser of the sins , i want to concentrate on the first two, because that is our greatest threat at the moment.

"I may detest what you say, but i will defend to the death your right to say it"

That is a phrase that i fully subscribe to in every sense of meaning, if we silence people we disagree with or send them to prison then what the hell happens when criticising the government is illegal ?

It seems we have been brainwashed into thinking that the state knows best, well it doesn't, it is there to serve us, not rule us.

o first they came for a "racist" then banned a "offencive bus advert* then took someone to court where they found guilty of calling someone a cunt.

But don't worry, its all for your protection.....

My Past

Thinking about blogging about this i thought about whether to write or not. Then i remembered this is my space to write.

You see we all have skeletons in closet, and yes i have many. But i am not standing for public office nor seeking power. i may not have proper education but i have life experience, this wont help me get a cushy top paying job, but it make me survive.

I was abused by both my parents from at least the age of 6, My Father abused me sexually, my Mother turned a blind eye then allowed others to have there turn. You saw in earlier post i run away to central London, well this is why.

I will not go into graphic details as this blog will be too long.

Whenever my mother went to church my father used to come into my bedroom and abuse me (it was that or getting shoved down stairs). I was not alone in this happening this to them. Before this ended i was then passed on to another relative and friends to be used at weekends for sex. I started to miss school, misbehave, cry all night, then one day i run away , i run as fast as i could, i didn't care if my feet hurt i ran , then ran and kept running till i found *safety*. in a brief day of safety i was ended up at a hostel in south London however they wouldn't accept me as i was under 16, i then i got directed to another hostel that i blagged into, was warm but never slept as was in a room with others, I was scared.

I was then told at this hostel to go and claim benefits, Being under 16 you cant, so then to the streets....


The streets were cold and scary, not paved with gold, i was alone and scared, i slept in doorsteps and whoever offered me a bed ( even if it meant sex), I went from hell into hell, i then started taking drugs to try and comfort the pain, it worked but not enough. I ended up with old men having forced sex on a nightly event ( even during the day), but i was so desperate for food and a roof that it didn't matter.

See i needed to survive, and that's what i did.

Hope you all had that choice.

(the next ten years slowly improved, another blogpost will come soon on this)

Page 3 tits? Why not?

Reading my twitter feed yesterday i saw a tweet saying that page 3 girls should be banned (or words to that effect), As you know i am gay so have no interest in seeing a woman get her breast out, but it is her choice.

If people want to show of their bodies for cash or even just the thrill of it in what ever media publication there is then let them. I don't care what they do ( as long as they are not forced against their will), if they strip for money then fine, Why should we stop them?

In my youth The Sun also used to run a page 7 fella, i used to like it ( also wished i would have a body like they did, the wish never come true) and think they should bring it back.

All i am saying is that we should celebrate our bodies it whatever way makes us happy ( as long as consenting adults and in privacy of own homes), and if you don't like page 3 tits or page 7 fella (if it ever comes back) then don't buy the Sun or whatever paper/magazine.

Remember we are all beautiful, so lets not be ashamed of it.

What has happened to manners?

Am i the only one who has noticed the lack of manners about recently?

What happened, is it to much to say please or thank you (hell even something like cheers) anymore, even tho twitter is only 140 characters there is still space for even shortened versions. I do my best to say please and thanks when required (and yes i sometimes forget) and also appreciate when manners are returned in my direction.

Have we got more cynical? or ruder? Have we just forgot them and the value of manners?

Maybe it is a sign of the times?

I always remember this phrase : "Its nice to be important but its more important to be nice"

Back from hell.

Well i made it back in one piece from hell.

For a strange reason it was not as bad as normal, it normally ends spending three days of trying to convince me that i "should come back into the fold" and that i should "get over that gay phase", while there was the normal sledging and sniping about my car, i felt they may be slowly coming around to accepting that i am gay and accepting me for it?

Maybe i am being too hopeful , you see i hold on to the belief that fundamentally there is good in everyone. I always try and see peoples good points as opposed to their bad points, is it possible that my family accept me for me?

I hope so.

Happy Easter everyone

I am only human

I am not a fan of posting after a few drinks, but !

We are all only human, with warts and all. Why do we look for the perfect leader/boyfriend etc. I am sick of people holding different people/groups to different standards.

See , we are all judgemental when its not our selves, hey its others lets mock em and judge em, yet if the same charge is aimed at us we attack? I believe we as people have been fooled into blurring the line between right and wrong, No longer are we all equal under the law( MP headbutts someone gets slap on wrist while an idiot who sent a tweet gets banged up for 56 days), This parliament is meant to represent the people, ask yourself this : How many people represent YOU ?

I am sick off double standards  : example : If tax avoidance is wrong then say so and don't do it ( Yes that's you Ken Livingstone i am talking about).

Lets Patrice what we preach instead of blaming others.

And for the record i believe tax avoidance is good and should be used by all and whenever you can

The IPL is here.

Most people that know me know that i am not a big fan of 20/20 cricket. However as its cricket i will watch it.

I really just want to have a moan about one thing and one thing only, I don't mind the fireworks , the singing and dancing, the atmosphere comes across as amazing, But (yep there is always a but), Is there any point on the pre-toss interviews? I mean , why? seriously? It goes pre toss interview then the toss then the post toss interview.

There must be a reason for it and i would be grateful if someone could provide me with the answer.

How dare you Mr Cameron

Today the Prime minister re-launched ( 30th i think) his big society idea, The idea i kind off support. However it is to cost 600 million pounds, so where is the government going to gt it from? The answer is dormant banks accounts.

Yes you read that right , the government is going to steal your money out of your bank account to fund its scheme.

So i say this to the Prime minster, as one of your predecessor's said *The problem with socialism is that you eventully run out of other peoples money* , Get your own house in order, your government is still spending over 600 billion a year of our money. STOP taking what is not yours.

It is bad enough that you want to read our e-mails, texts or tweets but to put your hand into bank accounts is more of the same type of measures that Labour dictatorship introduced.

Just stop it!

Are we as kind as we used to be?

Many years ago when i was still a teenager (under 16) i had just run away from home and found myself on the streets of central London.

While walking around Soho to look for somewhere to sleep i was stopped by a gentleman who asked if i knew where a certain road was, having this knowledge i then walked him to road he was looking for and he turned around and said thankyou and gave me £5 (which meant i was able to get hot food that day).

This story has always stuck with me narly 20 years on.

Which brings me to the present, On my recnt visit to th centre of the greatest city on the planet i found myself crossing the road to avoid getting myslf in eye-to-eye contact with people begging and sleeping rough.

Am i less kind than the gentleman that helped me? Maybe, but i did feel ashamed of myself deffently.

Ok, It was not a April fool.

In my hungover state yesterday i claimed the best April fool gag was that the State was going to monitor all our e-mails, I am sorry that i have mislead you, it was not a joke.

The State will argue that if you have nothing to hide thn you have nothing to fear, well to a degree they are right, my e-mails wouldnt reveal anything sinister but they are still private. Next thy will say they will only target terrorists, fine until you relise that it is the State that defines who the terrorists are, But a Judge would have to approve a warrent , fine, but who selects the judges?


Just th other week a person was jailed for 56 days for *Offensive* and *Racist* tweets.

dont worry tho, its all so you can be safe.
