MS and co have been shouting down PwME and their advocates, with their bullying, coercive, mind trick ways. When now trying the same tactics on a very potent, high-integrity politician, MS completely overlooks a very simple fact: For politicians, dealing with such behaviours is all part of a...

Yep, I twigged eventually :). Lots to catch up on here! Edited post.

Who is this minister?

Quite so. He's been showing himself up now for what he really is, to those he should have realised would have been better (from his perspective) to have left in ignorance. Intelligence has many facets, and it's intriguing how someone like MS is obviously so intelligent in some ways, can be so...

Oh she's good. Not just how she has got up to speed with all this, but well enough to get in there with it on the fly.

Reminds me of a very rude Bette Midler joke, about a man with a very long tongue.

Not quite my point :)

That's a neat little double play there by CM :). On the one hand playing a well known little strategy to not name him out loud, but I suspect on the other had offering him a side swipe, telling him he is very unmemorable ... not good for his ego. And he thought he know all about word play. I...

'Shame' is exactly the right word, even though the person is probably genetically incapable of such an emotion.

And who written to. Really shows to everyone how little connection he has with the real world.

Positively vexatious I would say.

I do wonder if it was a mistake, or if he maybe thought to make MS's life a little livelier.

Oh dear, a dyed-in-the-wool word-twister getting upset because he thinks people are twisting his words.

Yes, I've been thinking that SW may have done to MS what he probably does best - social engineering.

Maybe he dived in for a quick stir, and dived back out again. Ducking and diving ...

Funnily enough, it's not just the media MS. The current NICE guideline CG53 also seems to suffer from the same confusion ... https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/Cg53 I cannot imagine how such a confusion might have arisen for NICE, can you MS? I suppose it also excuses the media a bit really...

Exactly. Given his position on CFS Vs ME, why has he never ventured to ever correct the authorities, NICE, the medical establishment, insurance companies, etc, where PACE-style remedies are foisted onto people diagnosed with ME, or with "CFS/ME"?

Ye gods, hes been abusing his position for how long?

This reminds me of a nasty trick some car second hand car dealers employed back in my youth. The oil pressure warning light coming back on once the engine was running and the oil had warmed up (and was therefore thinner) was a typical sign of a knackered engine. So so dealers rewired the oil...

Presumably from this, Carol Monoghan has definitely been made aware of this already?
