Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 I know some of you are thinking ‘what now’? Well my MP is going to hand in our petition to the House of Commons. Whilst we have the ear of our UK Prime Minister re LDN who was ill informed about our petition, I’d like my MP who is a whip of the Tory party and chairs the Human Rights Commission to challenge him in the House of Commons. We at LDNNow are putting our names to add to this list and I’d like to ask if anyone else would like me to include their names too? Sadly it’s only British citizens but this is what Crabb will be handing in To the House of Commons. “The Petition of xx, Declares that the Petitioners believe that the Government should recognise the requests of patients with many serious diseases – list here – and should cause definitive research to proceed into the use of Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) as a safe drug therapy; Further declares that the Petitioners believe that, when a significant number of patients have refused the available treatment options and chosen another option instead, this creates an imperative for any necessary research into the treatment to be performed; that the Petitioners believe that LDN is a low cost drug which treats a large ranges of conditions, which otherwise require very expensive treatment protocols, that the savings potential for the NHS is very large, and that the safety of the drug is very attractive to people facing toxic alternatives; Further declares that the Petitioners believe that withholding research into LDN is a violation of the human rights of the patients concerned who number over 7000 in the UK and over 100,000 worldwide, and growing; and that the current system is unable to respond to this situation and ought to be revised so that it can respond appropriately. The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urge the Government to respond to the requests of patients and take steps to allow research to take place into the use of Low Dose Naltrexone. And the Petitioners remain, etc.,” If you can email me off line I’d be grateful – jaynelcrocker@... Many thanks, Jayne Crocker Chairperson www.LDNNow.com Important!
