I just want to make clear that I donāt doubt RSM is ill and/or physically disabled. I also want to put on the record that she deserves benefits, and, that I think the benefit system is unfairly operated to disadvantage people. I have been poor, by relative UK standards. I am incredibly lucky it wasnāt in conjunction with impairment that could have halted my ability to improve my situation. I have sympathy for anyone trying to bring up a family on limited means and with impairments and disadvantages.
My bugbear is the wretchedly and needless aggression. The confrontational style of āfighting the powers that beā that I feel ultimately hinders progress. Look at Jack ranting and swearing at any journalist unlucky enough to have to host her on a news channel during the FSM voucher system. Her ācampaigningā since SB was a baby has achieved the grand sum of fuck all. The Marcus Rashford (and mum) approach - firm but fair, conciliatory, giving people opportunity to talk, and change their mind with the appearance of dignity, shows how effective campaigning can be. He has a shit ton of money now but that does not invalidate his, and his families experience of not having a shit ton of money and who the fuck is RSM to say it does?
She is also a massive grifter who is vague enough to get a thousands raised to buy her a wheelchair. To get fines paid. To get groceries bought. All from the goodness of strangers - many of which are in similar situations to her, and therefore empathise with her situation.
Just in case people reading here think - ah, picking on the sick single mum are ya?
