Happy Face 29 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 There is a difference between prescribing something you know doesn't work because you know it won't work and prescribing something you know doesn't work in the hope that it will work. Yeah, the study distinguished between pure placebo and impure placebo http://www.nhs.uk/news/2013/03March/Pages/97-percent-of-GPs-admit-prescribing-placebos.aspx "Most doctors said placebos were ethical in some circumstances." Not that this is controversial or Renton would disagree. The problem with Corbyn is he's arguing the dilutey water is working, not making the case for ethical placebo use across the NHS.

It was a while ago and he did vote for scientific funding and against the use of the designation of “doctor” for complementary therapists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5304 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Do you think she's going to have a stable enough party after all this bloodshed? Some of the commentators are speculating that with a majority of only 12, and now a very likely hostile set of back benchers, she may have to go for an early GE after all...

Tend to think they'll fall into line over the important shit though. For the reasons you gave for them rebelling, i.e. more arsed about power than anything else. Ultimately that means protecting your seat at the next GE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a silly attitude Plenty of policies, particularly if they are good, get cross party support. Look at gay marriage. Couldn't have been passed without labour.

Renton 22007 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 The truth is CT parliament is an utter mess at the moment, not fit for purpose during the worst peace time crisis of our lives. Imo of course. BAMFU for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but that's helping the conservatives not labour. I guarantee those 170 labour MP's will be watching the telly this morning absolutely gutted. May playing an absolute blinder.
