Posting because of this reference to Gulf War Syndrome: That respect led him to be appointed to positions that demanded a sensitive touch: they included chairing an inquiry into legislation against terrorism in 1996 and the inquiry into Gulf War syndrome, set up in 2004. This was established...

Thanks.

Has any contact been made with Iain Chalmers? It might be worth a try. He would at least carry moral weight.

'Executive producer' often means very little. It's a way of giving star actors, and in this case writer, a slice of recognition and possibly of profits, but it doesn't necessarily mean they played much of a role in the actual production.

Sorry, the 'as well' was a brain typo.

Excellent comments as well. ETA Please ignore 'as well'. Yes, they are excellent.

The new chairman of Rangers football club was in contact with me over the weekend after I sent him a briefing note a couple of weeks ago. He thinks it's 'incredible to think that 40 years of science has not been able to make any viable improvements to ME patients' lives' and has asked me to put...

Where does it say on the website who the chair is? The agenda for the meeting includes an election of the chair.

Sheene then cured himself with cold baths. Apparently.

Yes, and in keeping with the mental gymnastics they've been performing for decades.

TG has reposted a thread from Twitter on Bluesky about the August Lancet paper on LC. I still can't get my head round the total disconnect between her hostility to ME patients and her support for the CBT-GET model for ME and her 'soundness' on LC. She also appears so ultra-sensitive to anything...
