Yes, she was brave. However, now she is spoiling the value of her deed by seeking compensation for her alleged PTSD. (Admittedly I am guessing as to her seeking compensation but I think I am correct.)

Gotta love that "free" health care fat boy Michael "two dinners" Moore is so fond of.

“I recently lost three stone and have a list of medication as longer than my arm...

I think I see the problem.

It's so much easier for the government medical establishment to turn a person into a revenue stream for the pharmaceutical industry than be bothered with them.

This would be a case where the Queen should quietly intervene.

Take self-defense training.
Armed and unarmed.

It may sound odd to take the training AFTER the ordeal, but it will help validate her actions and minimize the fear of new encounters.

I recommend the training for everybody.

Ah The British:
From ‘never in the history of mankind have so many owed so much to so few’ to “Never in the history of mankind have so many been cowed by so few”. In less than a single century.
Poor old Winston, I imagine it is very hard for a man of his girth to turn over in his grave.

I wish journalists would learn that “heroics” is NOT a synonym for “heroism.”
