Always the BBC

-

I don't really consider mental health as any sort of excuse for committing a crime.  I have suffered poor mental health for over twenty years and I have never used it as an excuse for anything, never mind trying to push away allegations of being a dirty bastard by saying I'm autistic. 

Yet this is exactly what Gregg Wallace is trying to do now.

Now that the BBC no longer wants to fund him because of his behaviour, he's blaming it on being autistic.  As if he thinks that thousands of autistic people are going to come out and say 'yes Gregg, we forgive you because being autistic is an excuse for being a pervy bastard.'

It is not.  And neither is any form of mental health he might want to come up with.  He is a "wrong'un" and that terminology crosses all dialectics across the UK.  

This guy has tried to turn his perverted behaviour into something that he thinks should be considered normal because he said he couldn't wear tight underwear.  I'm not sure anyone really likes tight underwear, especially during the summer months, but most would just switch to looser fitting pants rather than subjecting anyone to surprise willy.

This tosspot trying to use his money to get himself off pervert accusations.  He'll use every mental health "out" that he can to try and preserve his career - it won't work - because he thinks he should be allowed to be pervy.

What you can see by the allegations made towards him is that he used his position of BBC power over people he considered lower than him and wouldn't make complaints, which is true - they didn't.  However, they have spoken up now and are part of the Banijay UK investigation.  

The BBC, not wanting to be accused of covering up yet another pervert, produced an article a few days ago into the behaviour of Gregg Wallace and it is damning towards the presenter and they feel confident about publishing this because they weren't the production company.  Even though at least one allegation stemmed from their own produced cooking programme.

It's 2025 and we're hearing that issues that have arisen over the last few years were not reported because still people thought if they did raise them they'd be blacklisted within the BBC or within television production overall. This means there is still a strong "cover up" culture prevalent and people within the industry are aware of it.  Even if the BBC didn't produce Gregg's programmes, why is it the BBC yet again who are embroiled in the cover up? It's never any other broadcaster, always the BBC.  Are other channels throwing so much money at victims that they never come forwards, ever? Or has the BBC an inherent problem where perverts feel comfortable there no matter the production company?

The rental market con

Back in 2016 I rented a wonderful 2 bed flat for £695 PCM with a deposit of £695.  It was part furnished with cheap IKEA sofas (no fire regs on them though), a rickety dining table and four chairs and two single beds in the back bedroom.  In the main bedroom I asked them to remove the Ikea bed and mattress there as I brought my own. They got people to remove the bed and then I had to point out that I didn't want the old stained mattress either and why wouldn't they have just removed it? They provided wardrobes, bedside drawers and two chests of drawers. I put in a new double bed, new corner sofa (well, bought from my pal who had hardy used it), desk and chair, a new bookshelf and new lamps, uplighters and bedside lamps.  I put in a lot of work to that flat.   Then I had to leave it, three years after I moved in.  I could only take simple things like TV, PC, etc.  I couldn't take my bigger assets and they were left with the owner.  I tried to get t...

Grief

The absolute worst thing happened to me on the 24th July this year.  My mum died.   She was in hospital for just over a week and then she was...gone.  She passed peacefully at 6am.  It was sunny, she was in no pain and no distress.  I would have wanted it no other way, of course.  She'd gone into hospital for IV antibiotics and was fully expected to return home within four days but she stopped responding to them for some reason.   This is not my first experience of grief.  I have no grandparents, haven't for a long time, and each of their deaths hit me hard.  Losing my mother though, well it's taking all the grief I had with all my grandparents rolled into one and multiplying it by a million - that's how it feels. In reality though, I have no idea how to feel.  I don't appear to be doing the stages of grief properly.  Some days I have all of then one after the other and in no particular order.  Other days I have some ...

It's probably a bladder infection

 My dad went for some blood tests recently and they came back normal.  Then he had to repeat them and some came back not normal and those were for his prostate.  He'd had an episode where he had needed a pee in the house and not made it.  The doctor has pointed out it could just be a bladder infection that the blood tests wouldn't pick up on.  In fact, this appears to be fairly common.  He told me on Friday.  He started off with a quip about wanting his parents picture visible to him in death.  Then went on to say he'd been thinking about it since the doctor had mentioned it. The doctor pointing out that it might just be a bladder infection doesn't phase me, neither does him preparing my dad for something worse.  My dad isn't an idiot and he knows what men his age can end up suffering from.   I'm okay, I'm robust.  I always have been and have to be since my sister took a back seat running down south in the pandemic and not comi...
