Flicking through the news feed on my phone last night whose grinning mug do I see staring back at me but Mr Paul Dakers, apparently featuring in an article in "The Sun". I haven't watched any of his YT videos for a while and while I wouldn't be surprised if he had continued to bore the pants off his handful of followers with tales of his ongoing battle of wits against local authority and police in Cambridgeshire (a battle for which he is spectacularly ill-equipped), I would have been amazed if he had managed to engage in anything interesting enough to feature in the national media, even that bastion of moronic pap, The Sun.
Intrigued I opened the link to find that not content with publicly expounding with mind numbing tedium on his one man battle against the Council Tax, he has decided to broaden his remit to include the trials and tribulations of "the foul rag and bone shop of the heart". It appears that Paul, who I believed to be a lorry driver but The Sun describes as a "logistics specialist", is finding it particularly problematic to achieve a meaningful relationship with a person of the female persuasion.
Now we, who have seen Paul in all his glory, might find it hard to believe that women would not believe themselves blessed with even a glance from a man whose interests seem mainly to be drinking lager for breakfast and talking to himself in the dark. However, Paul ascribes much of his difficulty in finding "Miss Right" to the fact that at 45 years old, a sizeable proportion of the "Dakers-worthy" womenfolk have been careless enough to be dragging with them children from previous relationships. This does not sit well with Paul who admits that he is not "mentally prepared" for such an eventuality well not unless the woman is "very, very attractive" when he might be prepared "to look past the fact they have children and make me want to go out with them”.
As one of his fellow contributors observes “There’s a real trend in current parenting that the children always have to come first" and another unattributed opinion helpfully points out that such women "are more expensive than prostitutes", comments that mean, for once, Paul isn't the biggest arsehole on view.
I can't help wondering how Paul got involved in such an enterprise but I see in the article that a relationship expert has described then men taking part as "immature and selfish" which obviously means that he is more than qualified
