Town councillor claims mother is '9-foot green alien' - watch video

Simon Parkes, in an hour-long interview recorded by alien abductee network AMMACH, stated that as a baby, a 9-foot tall green extraterrestrial appeared at his cot and communicated telepathically his real ancestry.
Discussing the creature's hands, the 52-year-old said: "I thought, 'They're not mummy's hands, mummy's are pink'."
"I was looking straight into its face," Parkes continued. "It enters my mind through my eyes, and it sends a message down my optic nerve into my brain saying, 'I am your real mother. I am your more important mother'."
More of the 'creatures', who apparently possess kite-shaped faces, returned when he was 3 years old suffering from chicken pox.
Parkes claimed that after being left at home by his human mother, he was cared for by alien doctors and was protected by a platoon of soldiers from space.
He added that three years later, he was apparently taken aboard their spaceship with his "real" mother.
"The reason why extraterrestrials are interested in me is not because of my physical body, but what's inside: my soul," he stated.
Parkes, who was elected as the Labour councillor for Whitby last month, later told The Northern Echo that the issue "did not come up on the doorstep" while he was campaigning.
"For many people who don't experience it, it's very hard to accept. We are taught to only see and believe what we can touch, but it's acceptable to believe in religion.
"It's a personal matter and it doesn't affect my work. I'm more interested in fixing someone's leaking roof or potholes. People don't want me to talk about aliens."

It seems to be that he may have mental health issues in relation to what he's saying and also maybe parent issues , as he keeps mentioning his "mum" and I don't think he ever mentions his father , which also suggests that maybe something upsetting happened in his life when he was younger involving his dad. Also like most people that have these story's , he believes in what he is saying and its true.
The other theory is that it's a bet or a joke and making it up and he is fully aware he's joking around.
It's only my opinion , so please don't get offended by my comment . :))
