Somebody's empire is under threat.

Falsification? We don't need no steenking falsification.

John Maddox would be turning in his grave at what was being done in his name.

Interesting possibility.

And right at the time the profession most needs it, in the middle of a global pandemic. It is so obviously self-defeating you have to wonder about the intelligence of some senior medical professionals.

Might be in part because Dave reached his target and people switched their donations to Keith.

:)

They did reach their minimum target: Sufficient justification for ongoing employment. This will require verification in a larger sample. Several times, no doubt.

Don't know if KG had any control over the timing of his fund drive, but timing it to offset with Dave Tuller's might give a better result (not that this result is bad). Also splitting it up into two rounds a year.

Done. :thumbup:

Fair point.

If anybody thinks we are too harsh in our criticism of this cabal, just take a look at how persistently they misrepresent this fundamental point. Every. Fucking. Time. :mad: They have no possible defence on this. They know exactly what they are saying, and how dishonest and misleading it is...

Thank you, @Caroline Struthers. This is an important win. There are no excuses left for clinicians, and medico-legal and policy advisers. CBT & GET are not acceptable.

This. They are setting up the population and the health system to ignore the early non-specific warning signs of many serious disease processes. It is going to be a catastrophe far greater than ME and Long Covid if it is not stopped, because it will affect a far greater range of health...

Do patients have good reason to complain about the behaviour of some British researchers or research institutions? Not just British, though Britain is the epicentre of it all.

Even then it does not necessarily tell us why they develop them. The early signs of many diseases are vague & generic, and can include what are conventionally classified as psych symptoms. The question is what is the direction of causation?

Yep. Peer-review is clearly badly broken in this area of medicine. (Not every journal and reviewer, of course, but as a whole.) Cancer treatment is still basically cut (surgery), poison (chemotherapy), or burn (radiation). A close friend of mine died last year from Hodgkins lymphoma. After a...

Conversely, changes in lifestyle and behaviour, and psychological therapies (which work by challenging unhelpful ways we think about ourselves and world around us), I think this contains the biggest flaw in their approach, and it is a biggie: The assumption that they have a superior insight...

@Joan Crawford Thank you. :thumbup:
