    you can have the mother in law.
    Am having a right time with her.
    To make a long story, a little less long...
    My Mother in Law (MIL) split from my father in Law (FIL) in 1992.
    Not only that but she ran off with my FILs sisters husband (my FILs brother in law).
    So my wife has the distinct honour of having an uncle who is also her stepdad and three cousins who are also her stepsisters.
    Because of this, her three cousins/stepsisters despise my MIL (rightfully so) and see her as a harpie who cheated on their beloved uncle (My FIL) and tore their parents marriage apart.
    My MILs partner, who is my wifes Uncle by marriage/stepdad, has now developed Alzheimers or some other kind of dementia. He is 86 and the poor guy forgot last week that his sister is dead and has been for nearly 4 years. He kept trying to ring her unti my MIL asked wtf he was doing and told him he cant ring his sister as she is dead.
    Anyway, he obviously has dementia of some kind, but she wont go to a doctor and get him diagnosed or seek medical aid of any kind, as they fear that, as they are not married, and my MIL and FIL, despite having split 32 years ago, are still legally married, that if my MILs partner is flagged as having dementia, his three daughters, as his next of kin will use that to get power of attorney over him and have her removed from this will out of spite so she gets nothing when he dies.

    I have tried telling her to seek legal advice about the situation but she wont do that either. Just wants to keep secret that her partner is going all doolally and cant remember ****. I told her, his daughters and grandkids still do see him, so its gonna become apparent as it gets worse, so she needs to be proactive about it, but they wont listen.

    Its a ****ing shame Jeremy Kyle is no longer on the TV, would make for primetime viewing.

    <laugh><laugh><laugh> ****ing hell. Must have missed that episode.


    That’s quite sad. Wouldn’t wish dementia on anybody, nor having to deal with a loved one’s. My dad kept getting confused near the end, but he always recognised the family, and he always knew if Saints had won or lost (usually lost).

    Crying for what exactly, I will not be affected by the fuel payment But there will be some or many who will be affected

    What I will; do is call out this two faced **** storm of a morally corrupt government whenever I can

    It took the Tories 10 years for the left biased media to absolutely hate them, this lot have almost achieved it in two months

    Suckys joke video of Starmer below would be funny if not for the fact it is too close to what he is to be funny

    The left-biased media…

    u ok hun?x

    What exactly is morally corrupt about not means-testing a benefit that the vast majority don’t need and when pensioners are better off regardless due to increases in other benefits? Hardly anyone gives a **** when the disabled have their benefits cut which they actually rely on or when young people get ****ed.

    I only watch BBC and ITV news and snippets from Sky News so I have no knowledge of GB News and have no intention of wasting my time watching it, unlike you

    The BBC and ITV were increasingly hostile to the former Government after COVID which by definition made them left wing biased and they are already getting frustrated by the current government not telling the full facts

    Even Mick Lynch has almost politely told them they are a bunch of lying two faced ****s because they are not going after the rich to help the poor, probably because if he did he would have to buy his owns suits and glasses

    That's not the definition of "left wing bias" you tit. Calling out the sitting government for doing a poor job is called the press doing their job. Question: since the Labour party traditionally align left wing, are the BBC articles regarding this fuel allowance by definition "right wing bias?" The articles are, in my opinion, overwhelmingly aligned with the Tory opinion on this fuel allowance.

    The Tories got treated as any sitting government does, now they're out and the Labour Party are in, the pocket Tories on here are suddenly on one about bad press, spending changes etc etc.

    Yeah, the Tories really are done hard by the media, I dunno how they survive tbh. ffs. <laugh>

    They're centre, you think they're left wing because most of the media is owned by fascists.

    OK lets try it one more time just to see if you are capable of understanding English

    I said they were more hostile to the Government after COVID for obvious reasons, they did not like the Brexit result either, I actually voted remain and I have voted Liberal or Lib Dem in local and General Elections

    BBC and ITV are not as happy with the current Government as they were the night they were elected when they were celebrating like they had won the Euro Millions, even the Trade Unions do not appear to be happy even after the recent pay rises, even Ed Balls is calling them liars

    The whole point is I think this Government will go down in History as the worst ever

    From what I was listening to a short while ago, they suggest the winner will probably come from whoever wins Pennsylvania in the presidential election.
