So what do you suggest instead? It sounds to me as though you are saying that anyone who is a service user and who happens to be in paid work, particularly in...
Diane Hello : I am opening the debate - but what's more to the point is ACTION. There is a lot of unaudited tosh and paper-rituals about. That's my experience...
I don't think I was suggesting that we be complacent Liz. I just know that personally I won't be lobbying my MP until I know whether or not he has the ...

Thanks David for your reply - it gives some leads into a view on what happened - but what site do you mean David ? My questions would revolve on how effective...
Hi Silvas, In my experience what you are saying is very true, although I feel that there is a lot of people doing good work. The problem as I see it, is the...
I agree, a lot of paid users are more opressived than even the rest of them ... From: Dawn Talbot To: uksurvivors@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, April 02,...
Although we do not refuse funding from pharmaceutical companies, we recently tested six major companies against our ethical criteria and found none to be...
Hi Dawn Until a couple of weeks ago, I would have totally agreed with you regarding the upper echelon of service users - an impenetrable force if ever there...

Thankyou all for entering this debate - which is acceptably multi faceted and heartening for that . My aim ofcourse is to throw wide the debate net. I...
