Kerry McCarthy it was. She did attend one of the ME APPG meetings once (minutes are online and her name may be mentioned as an attendee). Seemed to remember she may even have ended up chairing at one point due to absence of regular chair.
It would be in my notes (as I attended) but simply...
The MP that brought up the two departments issue was Stephen Pound.
I was extremely glad (by the way) that he brought up the point of the DWP as they are very much linked to this through their unique funding of PACE and the hell they put claimants with this condition through.
I've attempted to post a link to a tweet including a link to the judgment but it will not show and I'm losing patience changing settings to allow it to show.
"some comments which were offensive".
That's open to interpretation. We cannot see these comments so this possibly sounds like propaganda based on previous allegations made by doctors/scientists in this field.
"Possibly".
Remember, a noted researcher had to pull back on evidence she gave at...
I would have thought that QMUL are the people to ask given that they are the ones that stated the funder and a precise sum.
Either way, there's something odd here.
Just to recap (and to save people going back to the more detailed first post), £2.8m of the circa £5m PACE trial money has been accounted for ("accounted" in this case meaning reported by at least two sources). That leaves approximately £2.2m outstanding.
Firstly, we don't know the exact amount...
I have to say I don't really know where to go with this.
There is obviously a discrepancy and I do find it, er, unusual that such a sum of money cannot be accounted for.
UPDATE:
I asked the Department of Health about the £1.6m that QMUL said had been donated to them by the DoH but which had not been declared by the DoH.
Today I received a reply from the Department of Health and they said:
"In addition there has been no further funding to this project or any...
I'm saying that we have his word for it but no actual *proof*. I don't think there's anything irrational in stating that; it's perfectly logical.
Anyone can claim they've had a death threat. I had a death threat over the phone thirty plus years ago but I have no proof that it happened so...
I'm assuming there is a list but bear in mind that Hanlon is dead so we simply cannot question him. If he was alive there's no suggestion that he'd enter into dialogue over such matters.
The very existence of such a list was what I questioned the MPS over.
As much as I do not trust Wessely...
I'm not sure that I'd conclude that Wessely was behind the list, having gone over Hanlon's text again. Hanlon has been somewhat ambiguous but it looks to me that the most likely source of the list would be the MPS, although it's in no way conclusive.
We know for a fact that social media is...
