I can totally sympathize with you, our respective supervisors should get together! Hate to break the news to you but it is very very difficult to get a new supervisor however, there are things that you can do. First of all you must tell someone, your second supervisor or someone similar. They can provide some personal and academic support. Should the situation get worse, they will know what has been happening and will be able to support you though any official procedures(Most uni's do have procedures but are loathed to use them! Second, you must take full responsibility for your own PhD, thesis and it's content, make you own plans, set your own goals etc. Finally and prob the hardest, have a meeting with the supervisor and bring up some of the issues and if you can, suggest solutions to see if you can find the middle ground. I hope this helps and good luck!

Would i do it again..... Oh my God NO!!!!! run, run away as fast as you can!!!!!

I'm very dyslexic and have less than a year to go of my PhD so it can be done... well at least i hope so!!!!!
