Scottish Mental Health Week Begins with...

A bust by The Sun,

    Monday October 7th begins Scottish Mental Health week and just to show how much The United Kingdom 'cares' about the North, just like fracking derelict barren wasteland references, The Sun UK has produced a frond page with the following:

News: 
     1,200 killed by mental patients

Shock 10-year toll exposes care crisis


     How apathetic is their desire to drive the home that any social stigma anyone might have towards a person with mental health issues, in any varying degree, are to be more overly trusted than acceptance via understanding of the particular person being viewed.

 'Presupposed assumptions on behalf of prejudice via ignorance carry on!'
That's what the title says to me... Sad really, no; Disgusting!

     The title of the article alone is enough to drive people working in mental health bonkers, but to do so on the mo(u)rning of Mental Health Week, in your own 'country,' is utterly preposterous in an absurd, lethargic and down right obtuse way.

     As a director of an artistic project set to be launched this week and for Mental Health Scotland, I find faff dialogue, even the mere title of said document being digitally and any other format distributed, distasteful in a rather 'I was trying to offend you, but most certainly you shan't accuse me,' type way.

     Furthermore, have a nice day and please, feel free not to read the article unless you leave an comment complaint on the article.

In earnest anticipation of,
