I remember last September AFME and CMRC hijacked all the excitement of the day and launched their dodgy OMEGA petition.

Maybe with all the excitement of #MillionsMissing and #MEAwarenessday if it gathers momentum on Facebook and Twitter then we can hopefully get rid of AFME and that wretched parasite Sonya Chowdhury. That would be a great achievement of MEAwarenessday!!!!!

This was my thoughts then in Sept 16:

I am still a bit annoyed at the MEGA and the conduct of the CMRC and not surprisingly the patient group representative AFME over the disastrous launch of MEGA and a random petition.

A few months ago I realised that the CMRC annual conference was to be held on 27 and 28 October which was the following day after the Millions Missing on 26 October. I had a bad feeling about this given the demands of millions missing could be simply responded to and patients placated by showing the government/CMRC was doing some research for patients.

Millions Missing was obviously a great success but CMRC/ MEGA project the following day along with the petition took the shine off the week. Despite already being concerned about the CMRC I was still shocked at the petition and I feel it was very underhand and deceptive to launch the MEGA project petition the day after MillionsMissing when many people were campaigning for biomedical research as the main protest demand. Many people will have signed because of the campaign around MillionsMissing protests etc.

Politely ask again. Also ask them why they deleted the first post.

And keep a copy! Include a snip of the post itself, so there is no argument it was posted.

Edit: If I'd looked a few posts further on I'd have seen you did just that :)

My understanding is that there may be a discussion amongst (some of) the board members this week about a message of support in favour of Crawley.

Better to leave them to it then and not try to dissuade them. Let us see where they stand.
