Oh no your not!
Im leaving b4 you!
I have no problem with your point. You could also go and include the families/carers that give up so much to help some people through their daily lives without the hope of benefits that many working people get through company legislation such as pensions ad health care.
The list can go on and YES, imho, YOU ARE QUITE RIGHT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT.
Doesn't deny the fact that Reeve did defy medical opinion, did encourage research that will help people that otherwise wouldn't have got funded and to simply acknowledge that isn't a crime.
Saying that if you are looking at the way the media is reporting it then its pathetic as they are simply pandering to the superstar mentality that they perpetuate. Where do the daily red tops focus on the reality of daily life? They don't, they throw things all the time in our face implying that the stars life is the life to have and isn't Reeve such and angel and did you know he played Superman in those films......
The anger isn't really for the list members is it? Its at the way that people are happy to be sold on this fantasy that they too can be Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible while in reality they maybe pack pies in a factory that are going to be sold to obese children that Peter West despises but is the product of the Thatcherite society that he masturbates over. And while kids as young as 12 binge drink themselves to early ill health there is a forgotten population of people referred to as spastics (.........but Jesus wouldn't like it) and the carers who are pushed into the background so not as to spoil the décor.
Too Right MIK. Be facking angry

What about saluting those who were born with disabilities who have to live
with them all their lives? Those who have to struggle every day that don't
have wealth to make it easier.
I'm leaving this list. Had enough.
Bye
