I regularly get Twitter tweets, Facebook messages, Linkedin messages and emails from people about My Fight for Justice, often informing me of their own experiences. One this morning speaks for itself, which left me lost for words… (Identifiable references removed, and permission sought from the female). I just wanted to explain why I have taken…
I was up early this morning as I couldn’t sleep properly, and for some reason I was thinking about my Achilles Heel and whether it was justice. I say you are a product of your parents in many ways, I know I am for sure – very much like My Mum. Although she is no…
A couple of days ago, I launched My Fight for Justice Campaign on Indiegogo against racism, homophobia and mental health discrimination at Scotland Yard and News Corporation. The campaign page has a short film made by me, together with information about how you can support my battle for justice. Please take a look, and help…
Last month, I tried once more time to put my dispute with the Metropolitan Police to bed hence my post… A letter to… the police, about discrimination. I published a video blog yesterday, about My Fight for Justice against Scotland Yard & News Corp trying to highlight the real impact discrimination has on people. Today,…
Today, I published my first video blog (aka vlog) on YouTube c/o My Mum. The 4 minute film looks at discrimination. If you have the time, why not have a look… My Fight For Justice Against Scotland Yard & News Corp. This has been a… first vlog on my blog, ‘View from the Bottom’. Take…
On Monday gone I telephoned a pharmacy about a prescription I needed, them telling me it would take a couple of days . I didn’t save the telephone number, so found it again today using my original method – Google. I spoke with them and asked if my prescription was ready. I was told ‘what…
Earlier this year, an Employment Tribunal ruled that the Metropolitan Police Service leaked my private data to News International. This is now subject of an appeal by the MPS, and in the hands of the justice system. However and separate to the above, I am trying to gather as much advice as possible before I…
Last week, I was minding my business when I received an email from The Lesbian & Gay Foundation which read… I’m delighted to be able to announce that you have been nominated by the community to be put forward to the public vote for The Lesbian & Gay Foundation’s Homo Heroes Award 2012 in the…
An amazing day and night for British Sport, at the London 2012 XXX Olympic Games. Super Saturday 4th August 2012, a date to remember. This has been a… ‘United’ Kingdom, ‘View from the Bottom’.

On Thursday gone, I had the pleasure of being invited to speak at the London LGBT Focus Group of St Mungo’s – the homeless charity that’s been helping people since 1969. It was my second guest speaking invite of 2012, having spoken earlier this year at The Lesbian & Gay Foundation’s ‘Being Me Event‘ in…
The only thing that surprised me about the Twitter tweet of the Tory MP Aidan Burley on Friday evening during the London 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony, was the timing of it and not his thoughts. I’ve never been a member of a political party and don’t speak for one, but did anyone really expect…

I’m currently devising a new current affairs documentary format with an alternative voice that I will present, utilising my investigation and interviewing skills as a police detective. Naturally, I have my own ideas on issues I would like to tackle and production companies have hinted at where they see me but this is all irrelevant…
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of watching Tennessee Williams’ play Vieux Carré directed by Robert Chevara at the King’s Head Theatre, London. I’ve always been a fan of fringe theatre as it has that unique ability of being an intimate experience, yet without any less of the quality of the bigger productions. I had however…
It’s hard to believe that if Uncle Billy who died just 3 months ago was here today, he would have been 99 having been born in 1913. I think about him a lot, and how he inspired me as a person with his wisdom and outlook on life. He may be gone, but is never…
Earlier, I was in contact with one of my old friends’ from secondary school in Liverpool who now lives in sunny Melbourne, Australia. A cool place, it is. Before I tell you of the reason we were chatting today, us writing to each other from the other side of the world reminded me of secondary…
