Merle's World

Thank you so much for all your kind birthday wishes. I genuinely mean that. I was truly taken aback by the thousands of positive, caring messages I received across my social media platforms. Each one meant more than you’ll ever know.  Most days, I wake up and struggle to find the strength to face yet another round of government-led (“spin doctor”) lies being printed by elements of the UK press. I don’t blame journalists for doing their jobs, but I do ask that they please start getting their facts right and add some balance to their articles.  Yesterday I had a lovely birthday with my husband and our three gorgeous cocker spaniels, Rocky, Rusty, and Rory. Doug even convinced me to get dressed up, as he was taking me out for dinner. So, I got glammed up, put a smile on my face and had a fantastic night out.  I woke up this morning filled with gratitude, renewed strength, and a fierce determination to keep fighting for the truth to come to light. Life is too short to let lies and negativity win. Thank you all for reminding me of that. Lots of love, Michelle 💖

We now live in this bizarre world where Yvette Cooper boasts about having Union Jack and St George’s flags and bunting strewn all over her house like it’s the Last Night of the Proms.
