New interview coming soon!

A screenshot of a petition on gov.uk - petition to legalise pepper spray as a self defence method.

I should be able to speak on my hometown’s radio.

I should be able to share my lived experience as a Newtonian, to explain why I have started a petition calling for the legalisation of regulated pepper spray for self-defence.

My hard work should and could be printed and represented.

I should be heard by the very community I belong to.

Instead, I am being invited to speak by people outside of this town — radio presenters, podcasters, campaigners — who see value in my voice and my work.

Support and representation should never be conditional.

It should never be “sometimes.”

It should never depend on who you’re liked by, controlled by, or aligned with.

Many people locally have asked me to run for council. A growing number want me to represent the disabled community. And I will represent my community — but I cannot and will not step into a council culture where corruption, ostracism, and silencing are allowed to continue.

I do more for this town independently, where I can be supported, included, and invested in.

Ostracism does not create community.

It does not protect anyone.

It does not amplify voices, raise awareness, or lead to positive change.

It stops it. It silences. It isolates. It allows harm to continue.

After my next interview (details coming soon), I will be publishing an article in Aycliffe Alternative Magazine giving the background and clarity around why this petition is not only personal — but necessary.

Petition details:


Legalise pepper spray in England

We call on the UK Government to:


• Legalise and regulate pepper spray for self-defence

• Restrict sales to over-18s and approved formulations only

• Impose tough penalties for misuse

• Provide clear guidelines on lawful self-defence


More details

Every day across England, people – especially women, disabled people, and survivors of domestic abuse – are left vulnerable to harassment, assault, and violence.

Reports of harassment and sexual offences on public transport have surged.

People are being threatened at bus stops and in public spaces.

We think domestic abuse is still at epidemic levels – and too many victims are left defenceless while waiting for help.

Police response times can stretch into hours, leaving victims exposed and unprotected.

Butterfly world Stockton and abused:

💔 Went to butterfly world left Bud in the car for forty minutes and it's cool in the car and the windows are all open. Dog is absolutely fine but the way India who works there spoke to us laughing at us and slagging us off triggered my autism in public. Just had an autistic meltdown cause people are accusing us of animal cruelty and overstepping unprofessionally and abusively so we've left. Total humiliation and false allegations man. There's a way to talk to people so we've left and gone home. She was openly telling other people that we are abusive and they were all laughing at me but how dare she. He has water and we were almost done cause we were not going to leave him long but it doesn't matter. People don't care they only care to act high and mighty with a ganging up mentality.  Getting members of the public involved is wrong and if she had bothered to put her hand in the car where it's cooler than outside and in the shade she would have realised she w...

Fighting for Community: Why The Aviator Matters More Than Ever Something powerful happens when people come together — when a space opens its doors to everyone, no matter their background, ability, or walk of life. That’s what The Aviator Sports & Live Lounge has done for our town. And now, it’s under threat. For years, The Aviator has been more than just a venue. It’s been a beating heart in Newton Aycliffe. A place for celebration, connection, live music, family events, sports, comfort food, and spontaneous laughter with strangers who become friends. It’s one of the rare spaces that makes you feel like you belong — and in a world that can feel so divided and isolating, that’s priceless. As a disabled woman, I’ve often found public spaces either inaccessible or unwelcoming. But not The Aviator. It’s one of the few places where I’ve never had to fight to be included. The staff have always been kind, attentive, and respectful. I can just be. That shouldn’t be rare — but sadly, it is....

Let the truth free:

https://suno.com/song/9d00a6ed-1993-4f89-8957-e870e2721dfb?sh=fktW7nMZgO995bZU The song I made about this on an AI app called SUNO with my lyrics (above) --- I'm done being scared and bullied and hiding. I set the truth free and if I get harmed and arrested for doing so, so be it. I refuse to be harmed or suffer anymore, I can't cope. I've harmed no one at any time and asking for an apology and blogging about my mistreatment doesn't justify false allegations. This has been breaking me. I need to set the truth free so my bullies have no more control. I'm sorry I wish I was stronger. I did my best.
