Time to Lobby?

This is a repost....

There needs to be a political response to help get people access to highly effective DMT. 

This needs co-ordination......who are the champions?


Not this lot? But can they help?

For Non-UK readers. Con does not mean criminal/convict but Conservative party and LD is Liberal Democrats and not Linkage disequalibrium and labour is not something that happens in pregnancy :-)
 
I wrote to my MP about this via fax your MP, who responded within 24 hours (so they keep their response rate up) and she wrote to the Health Minister who responded sadly with a cut and paste response that could have been done by a robot and was totally inadequate...It was frankly patronizing. 

Lord Dubs never responded so we can ask what is this lot of Parliamentarians doing for MS? 

I will go back to them but need to get something for them to read first
