Oh My God.

I need to sit with the ramifications of this one for a while.

The fake-science that for years told ME patients they were either deluded or malingering... Was funded/supported by the DWP... So they could legitimise economic violence.

CAN WE RIOT YET FFS???
Just look at this.

The DWP apparently never before or since, funded a clinical trial.

Just this one.

This specific one. Image
Now look at this...

Data collected by Jan 2010.

All published 2011... Image
So who was in charge of the DWP then?

Well you have your outgoing Labour administration, until the May election and then it's...

None other.

The Poundland Adolf Eichmann himself. Image
Riiiiight...

Nothing suspicious about that at all then.

Nothing to see here.

(Just some experiments in how much we can get away with, in our present administration's constitutional adventures with misinformation.)

He's right.

It shouldn't take an Oxford educated, white, middle aged, privileged male pillar of the scientific press to get ill before any patient gets taken seriously, but now that @GeorgeMonbiot has arrived, perhaps at last, we can DO SCIENCE on #MECFS

When we DID SCIENCE (in the rest of the world in the last 2 decades, just not in England) we discovered biomarkers. We discovered findable, physical signs, that show measurable changes are present in multiple systems.

Yes. ME has been found. You didn't know that? Ask why not? Image
To be explicitly clear here, so you can be in no doubt, the words "immunological, cellular and neurological abnormalities" here tell you what has been found.

Biomarkers.

Broken things that show up if you look in the right places.

Immune system broken things. Cells. Nerves.

Ah fuck it. The handle that adjusts the seat height in the car has snapped. Worse still it has snapped at the setting RD uses- not the setting I use. I have sent RD out with a set of grips to put it where I use it and banned him from driving it. He's sulking. Tough. He can walk.
It means it has to be fixed before school reopens on Monday or I have to do the school run myself and realistically I can't.

We are now trying to work out if it can be fixed.
Bad news. If your car seat is designed to move and no longer does, it will fail the MOT.

We have established the worst case scenario- replace the seat entirely. Looking at around £110 if it comes to that.

Still researching if a less nuclear option can be identified.

Nearly forgot to tell you a freshly arrived tale about the Little One's exploits at school (with the boy who thinks he wants to be a Nazi).

Remember LO had an altercation with a boy who wants to be a Nazi? LO slapped him over it.

They had to work together on a project...

1/
Kids were put to work in pairs (not of their own choosing) to make a cardboard model of a village. They could put things into the village that they wanted to see there.

LO wanted to put renewable energy into the village and a badger set.

Mini Nazi didn't. (MN for short).

2/
MN wanted to build a military base and a bridge. The tiny foes were individually working at opposite ends of the village.

LO built some solar panels, before *accidentally* totally wiping the military base off the map, glue and all - then somewhat damaging the bridge too!

Policing in Britain has traditionally been by consent. Attacking peaceful (if disruptive) protests crosses a line into policing by force.

That this approach began in multiple police forces simultaneously right as the bill went to the vote, suggests it's new UK wide strategy.

1/
If it is a new UK wide strategy the only person who can be directing it, is Patel, as Home Sec.

Bristol didn't fall in line on the correct day (Fri 12 March- the Clapham vigil). Sussex did and the Met did, that's why their protests went sour. Bristol didn't right away.

2/
Here is a very senior officer at Avon & Somerset police, just coincidentally dropping by, to pet the lovely horsies, at 4pm today.

Today's police actions were purely responsive, yep yep, not pre-planned in person, this afternoon, and set up, to make a point, nope nope.

Been thinking about these threads...

1. Little One did a violence against a drawing of Boris, the bots/sock puppets were deployed. See here:

2. Little One did a violence against an actual child, and not one bot/sock arrived:

1/?
I realised this last night but wanted to leave it to rule out that it was simply a matter of the post not being up long enough.

It's potentially linked to how many likes and shares, as the post with the bot/sock attention was 10x more popular, but I don't think it's that.

2/?
What you have to realise is sock puppet activity may look like random bellends sounding off, but it's meant to. What sock puppet activity is, is organised campaigning to skew natural discourse and debate online, to interject more of a set perspective.

OMG. Little One just filled in the gaps on a story we half knew...

Another child said he wanted to be a Nazi. LO smacked him and stamped on his foot. LO served a punishment for this crime (time out), and has just described the punishment as "worth it". LO has no regrets.

👀
LO said LO challenged the boy, and said Nazis were mass killers in ways too horrible to even explain and if the boy wants to be a Nazi he's an idiot.

The boy did not repent.

LO flashed angry and then slapped him and stamped on him.
The boy appears to have been treated with a cold compress. LO's teacher was very unhappy with LO for hitting but didn't defend being a Nazi (because that's obviously indefensible), however you aren't allowed to do that, so LO served time... (In time out).
