    I'm not really sure how that's even possible. How can anything be this much of a mess? With all this excessive funding and water-carrying by authorities and PR by the SMC and lowering the bar several storeys beneath ground level. It's almost spectacular, like watching not A Hindenburg but a mass migration of Hindenburgs going through synchronized self-immolation.

    Though it's very likely that those numbers for depression and anxiety are precisely the BS at the heart of the BPS model, of basically calling any and every human bodily function a clear and unmistakable sign of a mental disorder leading to catastrophic self-destruction, or something like that. One fart too many and, presto, diagnosis of virulent explosive anxious depression.

    Weird how basing something this big on a foundation that failed every test is a bad idea. Uh. Really weird. It's almost as if cheating is bad because it has consequences and pushing something over the starting line is very far from it making it to the finish line. There was much joy at publishing PACE through but what the BPS folks didn't realize is that all it accomplished was loading the balloons of hot air with explosive gas. Splendid job, Simon.

    https://survivingwork.org/5241-2/ - warning, they've used a hideous (in my opinion) colour scheme for the web page.

    At the end of the survey, revealing all the flaws... they then contradict themselves by 67% of them saying the think they are providing good care!

    Well, that's the PACE model: make shit up, break everything, provide no benefits whatsoever, give yourself a perfect grade. That's just the BPS wayTM.
