Day: December 12, 2020

I may have caused my own issues by falling asleep for nearly the whole day yesterday. I didn’t wake up until it was nearly time for coronation street. I went out for a walk not long after getting up and watched half of it later. I couldn’t sleep until about 6 am this morning. Then I woke up by half 7. I can’t get back to sleep. Mister, cat, was also being vocal this morning which didn’t help. The other one came for a cuddle which involved her shoving her backside in my face before settling down. I had to remove something really gross from my trainer last night after stepping on something while walking. I left them on the radiator to dry. I left the heating on quite high all night and ended up having to open the window because it got too hot. It’s the only way to dry them quickly if I want to use them the next day. I can smell a nasty smell coming from the litter tray so I probably have another mess to clean up today. I can’t sleep but too tired to get up.

I’m sure that many regular readers of the blog would have seen the article that I copied and pasted onto a post regarding police targets. I have decided that I am going to take some form of action with this knowledge. Although, I need to do slightly more research before going ahead with my plan. I hope that I can get many of us that were labelled as a criminal due to aspects of our disability pardoned (which means our records will be removed). I read more in regards to coursework tonight which states that these police targets were applied from 2002 for minor offences, playground fights, minor criminal damage (in example: breaking a cup) were even prosecuted or at least cautioned. There were many incidences which happened in the context of schools. The end paragraph even stated that they got many of these targets fulfilled by offences, such as the harassment act 1997 (a crime that is based on the ‘victims’ perception rather than the actual intention of the conduct causing ‘offence’), the act which saw me get a criminal label for aspects of how my autism manifested. I need a watertight case if I am to succeed in my plan to get myself and others who were labelled a criminal wrongly a pardon. I know a lot of information but it’s still not enough to create a petition and lobby a government.
