THE UNLIKELIEST OF LINKS

Well I had my third meeting for Universal Credit.

Realising last time that I'd met yet someone else who is 'not from around here elder!" .. except without the Scouse accent he told me he was from Lancashire.

I asked about the area as I've long had an interest and had, or will, planned to visit with my new trusty camera equipment. Fingers crossed I get to achieve that one!

He mentioned Preston and Lancaster along with others and I asked if the Avro Lancaster was named after the city and he confirmed that it did.

As it turned out he knew his aircraft and their history and explained there was a factory that manufactured the engine or engine parts .. my memory. After he finished I asked if he was joking? He wasn't.

I then asked if he was familiar with the Avro Manchester. He was and went into detail about how terrible a design it was and I simply say there wide eyed to his knowledge.

I then said "You might get a shock here but .. your note talking to the great, great grandson of the test pilot who died in the last crashed Avro Manchester before they scrapped it, added two engines and the Lancaster was born"

He looked sightly surprised .. until I said ..

"Well you like doing research .. check out my YouTube videos where you will see two books .. one called Test Pilots and another called The Avro Manchester. My great, great grandfather is mentioned in both. Can't remember if it's Reginald Edward Kirlew or Reginald Arthur Kirlew. His son was named after him and I can never remember which was around the middle names went!"

Then .. he looked more surprised. Lol.

He mentioned how strange it was that we had this connection and I said it shows what a small world it is. Well .. small country to be precise.

I mentioned that I had a letter from the DWP/ Universal Credit that stated that my first payment would be £600 plus. I then said that I had a second letter stating I would get £300 plus. I asked why this was. He did they not only don't get informed they cannot even call the service centres.

Gradually they have taken away the line of communication little by little. First noticed when I used to get my student loan deferral forms signed at the Job Centre which just stopped one day. That was over ten years ago.

I did state that considering the issues I now had to deal with that this could make life difficult in as little as a month. That I'd have to sell my car.

I then reminded him of telling him about being on the NEA scheme and he nodded. I then explained what happened and that I was totally to front and honest but was basically stabbed in the back. This occurring after finding out what had happened to my daughter and grandchildren and moving here because no fecker else would help them. Meaning all public services basically.

I mean this far zero from the DWP and quite the opposite in fact.

I mean thus far almost zero, except for an unsuitable and creepy town house that had 'Death Was Here' on a window pain and writing on the walls everywhere.

Guess who is going to end up painting the place from top to bottom? A place that should be painted to by the housing association or council, they are in London. Or at least they was. A place that that is unsuitable? Well be carpets too. Garden is mostly a mess.

So then .. if a proper and suitable place does ever come up .. guess who will paint that one?!

I guess someone that moves into the town house after my daughter will get a nicely painted place with carpets and a top notch looking garden.

Wait a minute?

Whose supposed to be saving money here?

Lmfao!

Outside of the suitable place, which when Victim Support was asked if they could influence it simply answered that my daughter was 'just like everyone else, there has been nothing, NADA, zero and zilch.

Having being told that the two girls are autistic and a nightmare when together, it's hard enough when you just have one, where are the suggestions? Where are the safety gadgets?

Two full blown doors have come off their hinges on the bottom end in just the last couple of weeks.

As for the gate we got to keep them from the kitchen, cooker and opening all the crisps after dragging a chair in from the dining room, yeah that was crap and didn't work ..

Offers of devices to help with the children's safety?

Umm .. none.

Suggestions and offers of help with the children's safety?

Umm .. once again .. none.

Can't be diagnosed until they are four years old?

Well my social worker friend simply gawped over that one. "Really?" Was all he said. I said "well apparently health issues only start when the government says that they do now" and he replied "All to save the money they don't deserve to have"

I'm not even going to mention that a certain Damien Green MP has been accused of spending several hours of one day in his office, not his home, of browsing for porn.

Funny that as the rest of us have to jump through hoops.

Someone needs to work out where it is the jobs that are important or it's just the money?

So if your in a job and being paid it's OK to sit on your arse, do off playing golf or downloading porn all day?

But everyone else had to lose 65p, or whatever it is, in any work that they do? Hmm .. yeah .. OK let's state the obvious in the 65p in the £1 crap ..

What if you need a car for work? How are you supposed to run a car at to to £2,000 a year insurance and up to £550 a year or more tax each year before you fucking put petrol or diesel in the fucking thing?

Yeah .. this really is not playing out very well.

It's only going to get worse because it has many faults and instead of fixing them they instead are speeding up it's virus like spread around the UK.
