1/ I've had a few people block me over my Tweet about the division being caused in the ME community over the use of the name ME/CFS. I've even had people pm me on Facebook to rant, then blocked me so I couldn't respond. I'm not sure what wasn't clear about my Tweet #PwME #MECFS 2/ It's not about the name - I hate CFS too. It's about people constantly criticising me, & others, for the name we choose to use. This is what is causing a divide. I only use ME/CFS when writing posts aimed at the general public, this is explained in my original tweet. #PwME

1/4 The #Tory government has put #disabled & chronically ill people through hell the past 10 years. The reason? To stop fraudulent benefit claims and reduce cost. The outcome? Thousands of us died and thousands more suffered humiliation, #poverty & devastating health implications 2/4 The kick in the teeth is; the benefit reforms and #DWP errors actually cost more than the original fraud. On top of this, the Tory's removed all funding for vital services that many vulnerable people in society relied upon. #ToriesOut #Tories #Health #Benefits
