Is Boris Johnson autistic?
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-bus-pass-pensioners-warm-b2070395.html The above is a link to an article about a senior citizen who’s struggling financially and Boris’ comment on it. To make it easier for you I copied and paste a few lines. In an interview on ITV’s Good Morning Britain the prime minister was told of a 77-year-old pensioner who rode the bus…

Can overeating be a form of challenging behaviour?
I had something strange happened to me yesterday evening: I found a Facebook group focused on supporting people with binge eating disorder and I wanted to join. To clarify, I did an online test for binge eating disorder a few years ago and it looked like I don’t have it but I think the criteria…

I got called a troll today (refugees will get benefits)
I’m spending significant amount of time on Facebook groups dedicated to help refugees. I will continue my observation of British public and will keep posting what I’ve noticed. Today I saw a post from a lady who was upset because ‘her’ refugees changed their mind on the last minute and said they’re not coming. She…

Another thing I don’t understand (£350)
The British are currently arguing about the £350 that the government gives towards hosting Ukrainian refugees. Some of them are calling the government ‘shitty’ and claim it’s not enough.

Why don’t you just move on in hope that at least the refugees have enough choices? In another post Polish lady who is helping an Ukrainian mum…

I guess, because I’ve never seen British person being rude to someone who is black, I assumed racism doesn’t really exist. I…

‘I can’t afford it’ – glass is always half empty if you’re in the UK
I already made a short post about it yesterday, where I said that British public judge success by the amount of debt someone has. Obviously, that is not official and you’re not going to read about it on BBC, but this is what people really seem to think. I’m sure there are people here who…

‘You’re, the foreiners are the real source of the problem’
This is another post of my experience of working in social care. I’ve been doing this job for like 12 years and, again, some things are different when you see them from inside of the organisation, to how they are being presented. Obviously every organisation will say they are being inclusive, but when you work…
