Fightback used to post quite a few stories about claimants being rung up to see if they would accept this or that award (lower than they were...
Proper length of wet haddock, isn't it! :laugh:
'Deviance' and 'valence' are just terms used in linguistics. I've had too little sleep and so can't attempt to explain them, but I wouldn't worry...
Would quite like to send them all a T-shirt, saying My patients are already doing too much!
I suspect it isn't, if there's no external ethics approval and participants have to pay for the treatment. Research projects take a strict...
I could really have done with someone advising me that I should be making plans to withdraw from work a lot sooner than I did! Not that this is...
Indeed. It's one of the short surveys that could usefully be done with the DecodeME cohort eventually, to get a bigger and possibly more...
You must forgive us for a bit of a pile-on in response to some of the apheresis stuff, @SNT Gatchaman! Some of us have just been watching similar...
By behaving like scientists? This must have happened thousands of times, but until you do a blinded trial, it's completely meaningless. It's not...

It often is. Capital purchases are usually treated differently to revenue costs such as overheads, staff, and consumables, and are accounted for...
Same here—said on the news that the website (which refused me last week) was being changed from today, and I've been able to book for 21st. Only...
Thanks, Tom – it was easy to find the charity and vote, and it appears you can opt out of follow-up emails too. (Hopefully!)
That's all really interesting. I'd never read anything about it, and was clueless about the 'commitment', but had made assumptions about the...
I'm not sure of this, but do you not ask the assessors for the report? The idea that that DWP couldn't provide it is laughable since they based...
I'm much more interested in this, since it seems at least to be a real phenomenon. We don't all have it, but it does seem to be a feature in some...
In strict terms the guideline shouldn't have any effect, as awards are supposed to be based on how an illness affects the claimant, not what their...
They're not used to people actually checking their homework, are they? Can't decide whether it's hilarious or just terrifying.
I take them because they reduce PEM and help me digest carbs, but I've no idea why. I once spent six or seven weeks getting though a tub of...
Separate names with a comma.
