I did one better and spoke to Julian Huppert in person (Cambridgeshire lib dem MP)! He came round knocking on doors and I answered. Greasy haired and leaning heavily on the door frame I made a short and bumbled speech about ME/CFS urgently needing more funding and about it being hugely underfunded in comparison to other similarly disabling diseases. He made a note of it on his phone. I doubt anything much will come of it, but if he hears about it from a few more people I'd imagine that would make it 'an issue'!
The Lib dems are making funding 'mental health' a priority of theirs in this election, which is great, but it obviously doesn't help us. It does mean though that they at least recognise the need to fund under-funded diseases. Enough pressure could get them to widen the scope, who knows, if you have the energy give sending a letter, please try!
