PGP / SPD My story:

This is my personal perspective and statement only based on factual information gathered. Politics as I see it in the UK: I have no issue with people sharing their perspectives — that’s what platforms are for. My concern is with systemic failures, not individual opinions. We are living with entrenched ableism, a lack of meaningful employment support, and the continued targeting of disabled citizens.  Support services are stripped away while assisted dying bills are pushed. Meanwhile, homeless veterans, elderly people, and young people are treated appallingly — yet society is more willing to help animals than humans. (I wrote “Let the Homeless Choke” under K Doll because this hypocrisy needed naming, ask Alexa to play it.) Disabled people are routinely exploited as free labour, or paid up to 13% less if they manage to secure employment at all.  Media misinformation fuels this harm. Mobility vehicles are not luxuries — they are essential tools that enable independence, hospital ...

You Cannot “Let Go” of Abuse That Is Still Ongoing I am writing this as a factual account of my own lived experience. I am continuing to experience ongoing ostracism, exclusion, and hostile treatment within my town, involving individuals who hold positions of influence through local media, charities, and the town council. These experiences are the reason I am unable to simply “move on” or “let go”. I have raised concerns with Great Aycliffe Town Council . However, due to the conduct of several councillors and the ongoing involvement of individuals whose actions have caused me harm, I no longer feel safe or aligned attending council meetings. This is a personal safeguarding decision. I have experienced sustained exclusion from community platforms and representation. Since Paul Howarth took over Newton Press , my community and charity work has no longer been published or acknowledged. This is a decision he is entitled to make, but the impact has been exclusionary and has occurred al...

"What's wrong with society isn't just abusers, it's those that are indoctrinated with toxic ideals that ENABLE the abusers" What’s wrong with society isn’t just abusers — it’s the toxic ideals that enable them. I keep seeing comments aimed at girls and women saying “respect is mutual” as if we all exist on equal ground. We don’t. That argument deliberately ignores reality. In many countries, girls have no legal rights at all. They are not safe in hospitals, not safe in schools, not safe within systems meant to protect them. They are abused by teachers, doctors, police officers, relatives — the very people society tells them to trust. Disabled girls and women are often forced onto contraception, not for their autonomy or wellbeing, but because male violence is so normalised that the responsibility is placed on victims instead of perpetrators. And this isn’t rare. It’s systemic. Nine-year-old girls are being married off and dying from internal bleeding. Female genit...

 #proud  I’m so proud of those of us here who still recognise the importance of challenging and correcting harmful stigmas. ❤️ I’m proud of every one of you I see choosing to build others up, choosing kindness over hostility, help over judgement, and solidarity over division — because none of this is easy for us. We are worthy of support. ❤️ I’m also proud of those who, when a mirror is held up, choose accountability and growth. We are always one evolution away from becoming better versions of ourselves — and that choice is in our hands. When I get things wrong, I face it head on and I fix it. Yes, even when others want to fixate on it. I don’t change for optics — I change for me, because the people I support deserve my best. And sometimes, even the hardest lessons turn out to be blessings. 🙏🏻 I hope those of you who remain kind in difficult times stick around. We need more good than bad, and I am so tired of the bad. You can rest assured — I won’t be adding to it. 💯❤️ Sara...

Change does not begin with grand gestures. It begins with noticing what sits just outside the frame — the harm, the gaps, the people still waiting to be helped while attention is pulled elsewhere. We all like to believe we would do more if only we could. But in reality, there is always something we can do. Support a cause that aligns with your values. Lend your name, your voice, your time. Stand with others instead of assuming the worst and turning away. In the UK, people still need help — urgently. And while systems continue to fail, small acts of collective support remain one of the few things that still move the needle. Yet too often, energy is wasted on negativity, assumptions, and criticism that leads nowhere. It takes far less effort to dismiss than it does to act — but only one of those creates real change. I spend much of my life fighting systemic battles: ableism, discrimination, ostracism, abuse. I do this not as an observer, but as a survivor. And I can say this with certain...

Happy New Year everyone! Here's a video recap from 2025 (available to play at the bottom of this blog thanks to YouTube) and I hope we all smash 2026! In the best ways possible of course! Sarah ❤️ ~ Happy New Year ~ Alt text: A festive New Year collage on a dark background with a black and gold “Happy New Year” banner at the top, finished with a red bow. Below is a grid of photos showing cosy celebrations at home. Many images feature a person with long pink hair wearing a red beret and glasses, smiling, posing playfully, and making hand gestures in selfies. They appear with friends and a partner in relaxed, joyful moments. Several photos show a decorated Christmas tree with colourful lights and ornaments, a living room setup with TV and games, and a wall clock approaching midnight. A strip of Polaroid-style photos in the centre captures candid poses and group selfies. The overall mood is warm, intimate, and celebratory, marking the transition into the New Year.
