Thank you Rupert Lowe for being one of the first MP'S for talking out about the family courts.

Evidently, Britain’s family court system discriminates against men, and we need to start talking about it.

Thousands of loving fathers are being pushed out of their children’s lives - not because they are unfit, not because they have done anything wrong, but because the system is built on outdated and inaccurate assumptions.

If a relationship breaks down, the default assumption of the family courts is still overwhelmingly that mum is the primary parent and dad is a visitor - someone to be slotted in every other weekend, maybe a Wednesday evening if he’s lucky. It’s grim.

How is that in the best interests of the child? It’s not. A child needs his/her dad.

Fathers are waiting months to get a hearing, with false allegations wiping a dad out of the child’s life entirely. Contact reduced based on somebody’s word, often from an ex-partner where clearly emotions are running high. Is that fair? I think not.

It costs a FORTUNE. So what, a father can see his son or daughter? Tens of thousands of pounds, fighting for access. I can only imagine what these men are going through. It’s horrific.

The entire system is built on the idea that fathers are less essential.

I passionately disagree. Children need their fathers.

None of this is anti-woman, and of course there are men (as there are women) who should not be in their children’s lives - but the system has massively overcompensated and thousands of decent dads are suffering because of it.

Good fathers are being treated like criminals or inconveniences, often bled financially dry when there is not even proper contact with the child.

The system needs an overhaul. I am pushing for change in Parliament.

A massive thank you to Rupert Lowe for responding to my messages this morning.

It's so nice that someone who is a leading figure in our society is willing to speak up about the family courts.

To help protect our children and parents.

The family court system needs a massive shake up.

Our society is being destroyed and people are taking their lives.

A massive, massive thank you once again.

Please everyone share this and we need as many people as possible to help with this campaign to push for change.

To really safeguard our children for years to come.###

Well just over a year ago I started my first group page.

One year on and I now have 3 different groups, a tiktok page and Instagram page.

Over 8000k members accross all platforms which just proves how big this problem really is.

This nightmare journey is heartbreaking for us all and I hope that if nothing else these pages have at least made you feel like your not alone.

I believe if we continue to make people aware that things will start to change and for that reason alone and my three wonderful children I will never stop fighting.

For me the system stopped my from seeing my children.

After spending £26000 on solicitors and court fees my advice would be to stay out of the family courts.

You can have all the evidence in the world in a family court and it can make absolutely no difference at all.

I represented myself for most of my 10 years of going through the family court system and managed to see my little one for 9 1/2 years.

We created so many amazing memories, that I will carry with me everyday for the rest of my life.

The only reason I walked away was because of the lies and false accusations and a judge who allowed lies over truth.

So thank you all for your love and support without you all the journey would be so much harder.

Together let's keep supporting each other and let's make this a better world for our children.

Love always from a dad who now has to fight in a different way.###

Fight for change.###

When is the system going to stop the false accusations and lies.

Why are you not innocent until proven guilt.

Why are the police not charging people who waste police time.

The courts would have a much higher conviction rate if they charged people for false accusations.

The police force in this country is as corrupt as the courts.

I never thought that the court system and the police force were so bad until I went through the system.

What the hell is going on in this country right now.

Why are we destroying good hardworking people.

Why are children only seeing one parent.

When are we all going to start standing up to this crime.

I have a very big question why when there are false allegations, twisting of the truth that provocation is never taken into account.

Here's an example your ex cheats on you and you confront them and you argue.

You walk out because you can't take anymore.

You take time out to get your head straight and a couple of days later you return home.

You go in and within mins the police are called and you get arrested.

The allegation comes in that you smashed down the door and then your supposed to have lost the plot.

When the real truth is you just wanted to see your kids.

Not only this, you then have to pay child maintenance for the next god knows how many years.

So you come out of court charged and most of us would not have any kind of criminal record before this.

We are left at your lowest point, we leave with all sorts of thoughts going through our head.

Where is the support for the parent who is going through a living hell. Why do the courts not look at why things have got to this point.

Why do the family courts accept all these lies and accusations they are life changing to both children and parents.

When are we all going to start standing up to the system.

When are we going to stand up to people whonloe and twist the truth.

Safeguarding are children is the responsibility of every single adult.

It's about government making people accountable.

It's about a court system that is evidence based.

It's about punishing the people who have done wrong.

Remember this all started because one parent cheated and they ended up with everything.

The other parent had to start all over again.

Never let a cheater, someone who twists the truth the chance to win.

All they want to do is destroy you.

Well here we are still fighting without the control free to finally be the people we want to be again.###

I wanted to share this post because we are all one step away from being homeless.

We are one step from losing everything.

But I want to give everyone who is having to start again hope.

There are good people out there who want to take the time to help others.

Good hardworking people who love and care for others.

Sometimes we all just need a break.

We need to look at life in a different way.

We need to work out what is truly important.

Time heals, good loving people look at the bigger picture.

For me the most important thing is that you never forget who you are and what your about.

Other people will try and change you.

The family courts are breaking individuals. But we have to remember are children are still alive.

Everyday we still have hope, we will never stop being a parent and we will always carry love in our hearts.

For these reasons none of us must ever give up on life.

None of us must ever let the system take another life.

Together we have to love and support one another.

Every day is a challenge that we must all battle through and hope tomorrow is a better day.

Sometimes things that happen in a court are for the best for new beginnings.

For the control to stop and for us to build a better life.

Love to anyone who is struggling.###

On my way home from work today, I saw a man sitting on the sidewalk. Normally, I try not to make eye contact with people living on the street. It is like a bad habit I formed to avoid feeling anything. If I do not look, I do not have to think about their situation.

But today felt different. This young man was sitting with his head down, almost trying to disappear while everyone walked past him. He had a small sign that said it was his birthday. For some reason, this time I looked at him, and once I did, I could not ignore him anymore.

I walked past him at first, but then I went straight to a pizza shop and ordered a small pizza. Then I bought a slice of cheesecake. I had candles at home and a $50 Whole Foods gift card that I knew I would never use, so I placed the gift card in an envelope and tied it with a small bow.

With the pizza, the cheesecake, the candle, and the gift card, I went back and celebrated his 30th birthday with him. His name was Jason. I asked him to blow out the candle and make a wish. We both knew what he wished for, but he didn’t know that I made a wish too. I wished that more of us, including myself, would take a moment to truly look at people instead of looking away.

Because when you really see someone, it becomes hard not to care. And in times like these, caring is something the world needs more of. We need to look inside ourselves so we can lift others up.

Happy birthday, Jason.
I hope your wish comes true.

This is a must watch episode.

Houses of Parliament April 25th 2025 was a life changing moment for anyone who attend.

We talk about how protests don't work and nothing ever changes.

But Michael Love,Deano, Mark Batchelor and the other people who attend it brought us altogether.

For me that was the first time that I did not feel like I was alone.

It was the first time I felt that I could really carry on with life in a positive way.

In gave me a reason to continue with my group.

It's all to late for me and my children but it's not to late for all of us to try and help protect our grandchildren.

To help our own children when they have children.

For me this is now a journey that I never thought I would ever be on but a journey I'm happy to now help and support others.

Please watch and share this post.

Watch the podcast Deano is an unbelievable person who is going through a living nightmare.

But has a heart that is bigger than you could ever imagine and would do anything to help someone else.

To everyone who went to London thank you.

None of you will ever be forgotten l.###
