That must be what accounts for Sharpe's recent change of tone. It must have been slowly dawning upon him that he may not have heard the last of that.....

 

[LightHurtsME]

Surely Sharpe has blown it completely now. How dare he say it's unbecoming of an MP. That is unbecoming of an Oxford professor.

Exactly. And a quotable quote for ME sufferers to demonstrate how we and our supporters are treated by some.

 

[Hoopoe]

A speaker saying that eminent scientists are questioning the PACE trial.

yes in many organisations it would be gross misconduct and a sackable offence for bringing the organisation into disrepute

 

[NelliePledge]

Ed Davey going on GET and why is it still recommended

 

[AR68]

Ed Davey speaking now

Thanks. Recognised the face, couldn't name!

 

[NelliePledge]

Ed Davey saying people will take Govt to court for GET causing worsening of illness

 

[NelliePledge]

Anyone know which Minister is the one in the hotseat today?

 

[AR68]

Told Carol Monaghan her behaviour was 'unbecoming of that of an MP'. Wow. In many respects, it's good for Parliamentarians to receive the same slander that ME patients have.

Twitter should be fun tonight.

 

[NelliePledge]

IIME have got their Norwich MP championing them

MPs are there to represent the public and their constituents who bring issues to them which they then take into parliament. They are not there to prop up the establishment.

The man is such a fool!

 

[AR68]

saying people will take Govt to court for GET causing worsening of illness

Absolutely needs to happen.

 

[Londinium]

Ed Davey's story of a constituent being told 'all ME patients are crazy... except you' ties in exactly with an experience I had. A GP told me 'no, you're properly ill with something you got from India. Not like all those women who just won't get out of bed.'

 

[NelliePledge]

loving the 4 folks in Millions Missing Tshirts by the way

 

[Keela Too]

This is going well. I was expecting some resistance from other view points, but they don't seem to be starting yet??

 

[Trish]

Dorset ME support group being spoken about by a local MP.
Telling 2 constituents stories.
Child constituent talked about mood and anxiety.

 

[Trish]

Charles Shepherd's MP talking now.
Medical education needed.

 

[Sarah]

I think it is Dr. Eliana Lacerda of the CureME team to Dr. Shepherd's right.

 

[Trish]

Good speaker now quoting US and WHO reports and demolishing 'yuppie flu' nonsense. Says sufferers haven't had a voice and it is MP's responsibility to give them a voice.

 

[MSEsperanza]

Mike, have a day out at the pub. You may need it.
