SAVE LONDON HOMEOPATHIC HOSPITAL

Homeopathy is being downgraded and and the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital is under the threat of closure (see the Early Day Motion 908, http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDetails.aspx?EDMID=40517&SESSION=903 ) due to the United Kingdom's House of Commons Science and Technology Committee, which is spending millions on introducing nanomaterials and nanotechnology into the food chain.  This is insanity. 


The RLHH is the only place within the National Health Service where the British public all over the UK can be referred to by their GP to be assessed and treated naturally as human beings rather than with drugs made by high profit pharmaceutical companies. 


The public benefit at the RLHH by being treated as a whole rather than suffer side-effects of prescribed pharmaceutical drugs. The hospital is a success judging by the complete lack of complaints or litigation, the patients can often resume much improved quality of life after short period of therapies, between one to eight sessions on a weekly basis, without relying on long term pharmaceutical drugs for the rest of their lives, saving NHS long term costs and reducing long term side-effects.

The methods used at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital have been proven for thousands of years, acupuncture, physiotherapy, Reiki, healing, massage, herbs, oils, etc. long before man-made drugs were manufactured. They provide a wide range of treatments, the staff are always polite, they give you a high quality service which is essential first step to treatment.


The Royal London Hoemopathic Hospital is a flagship of the NHS, a model for the rest of the NHS to strive to. The public want it and need it, so who or what is pulling the wrong (closure) strings???? Certainly not the public or the Government. There appears to be big insane mistake in the Early Day Motion 908 of the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee. The Science and Technology Committee is funding research to introduce nanomaterials and nanotechnologies into the food chain, see http://www.parliament.uk/documents/upload/GovResponseNandF.pdf

See Government Response to the Lord's Science & Technology Select Committee Report into Nanotechnologies and Food, http://www.parliament.uk/documents/upload/GovResponseNandF.pdf  :-


 "Self-regulation Recommendation 19. We recommend that the Government, in collaboration with relevant stakeholders, support the development of voluntary codes of conduct for nanotechnologies in order to assist the continuing development of effective legislation for this rapidly emerging technology. The Government should work to ensure that voluntary codes are of a high standard, are subject to effective monitoring processes and are transparent (paragraph 5.42). The Technology Strategy Board has supported the development of a nanotechnology code through its funding of the Nanotechnology Industry Association (NIA) and the Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network (NanoKTN). Both NanoKTN and NIA were cosponsors of the NanoCode together with the Royal Society and Insight Investment.


The Knowledge Transfer Networks that have an involvement in nanotechnology will be promoting the adoption of the NanoCode to companies in their sector." "Current public attitudes to the use of nanotechnologies Recommendation 27. We recommend that the Government commission a survey of public attitudes towards the use of nanotechnologies in the food sector, with the aim of informing debate on the subject. This work should be carried out regularly to keep pace with evolving public opinion (paragraph 7.10)"


No constituent wants to be deprived of an alternative treatment to pharmaceutical drugs. 


No constituent wants or needs nanomaterials or nanotechnologies in their food.


But the Science & Technology Select Committee is pumping millions into research which only legalises this inhuman practice into the food chain.

Early Day Motion

EDM 908

23.02.2010


Tredinnick, David

That this House expresses concern at the conclusions of the Science and Technology Committee's Report, Evidence Check on Homeopathy; notes that the Committee took only oral evidence from a limited number of witnesses, including known critics of homeopathy Tracy Brown, the Managing Director of Sense About Science, and journalist Dr Ben Goldacre, who have no expertise in the subject; believes that evidence should have been heard from primary care trusts that commission homeopathy, doctors who use it in a primary care setting, and other relevant organisations, such as the Society of Homeopaths, to provide balance; observes that the Committee did not consider evidence from abroad from countries such as France and Germany, where provision of homeopathy is far more widespread than in the UK, or from India, where it is part of the health service; regrets that the Committee ignored the 74 randomised controlled trials comparing homeopathy with placebo, of which 63 showed homeopathic treatments were effective, and that the Committee recommends no further research; further notes that 206 hon. Members signed Early Day Motion No. 1240 in support of NHS homeopathic hospitals in Session 2006-07; and calls on the Government to maintain its policy of allowing decision-making on individual clinical interventions, including homeopathy, to remain in the hands of local NHS service providers and practitioners who are best placed to know their community's needs.
