UK: Waitrose & Tom Boyd – A Working Example of Disability, Discrimination & the “Invalidation of the Worker”! (23.10.2025)

In a post on Facebook, she wrote: “Our hearts are broken and we need to share this..

“Our autistic son has been treated so unfairly, and we feel deeply let down.

“For over four years, he’s been doing work experience at Waitrose and Partners store in Cheadle Hulme.

“Every week, for two full mornings, he worked so hard – emptying four or more cages of stock, stacking shelves, and helping wherever he could.

“He loved it there. The shop staff were absolutely amazing with him and made him feel part of the team.

“Many of them would say things like, “You work harder than some people who are paid to work here.

“He gave over 600 hours of his time – purely because he wanted to belong, contribute, and make a difference.

“When we asked if there was any chance he could be offered just a few paid hours – not as charity, but as recognition for all the time, effort, and heart he’s given – we were shocked by how dismissive and cold the response was.

“The manager said, “We can’t just let him do his thing,” when that’s exactly what he’s been doing successfully for years.”

She continued: “After everything he’s done, there was no apology, no thanks, and no recognition for his commitment. Just silence.

Yemen: Anti-Fascist Bravery of a Remarkable People! (19.12.2024)

The warplanes you can hear overhead – are those of the British Royal Airforce (RAF) – sent by Labour’s Kier Starmer to kill these people who dare to oppose Israeli fascism! Whilst British people head into two-weeks of hedonistic celebration thinly described as “Christmas” – the tax-money of the population is used to fuel, supply and keep flying warplanes used to bomb a defenceless people – for other White racists who happen to be Jews living in that stolen part of Palestine currently termed “Israel”! Every British person should be ashamed by this!

IN MEMORIAM (24.6.2023): Remembering the Thirty-Two Victims of the New Orleans Upstairs Lounge (Homophobic) Arson Attack (24.6.1973)!

The sensationalized and homophobic reporting of the local and national press reached its zenith when WVUE Channel 8 reported, on air live, an anonymous phone call saying that “the bar was fire-bombed by a vigilante group that has declared war on homosexuals in New Orleans. The caller, a woman, said the group calls itself “Black Momma, White Momma.” The news anchor went on to say that the group was made up of “several women, as well as five men, who have been sexually attacked by homosexuals.” The newscaster concluded by stating that the caller “said the group is planning more attacks and has maps outlining their future targets.”
