Rather than trying to tease the information out of me (I may not be in the mood to play ), it might be better to put your own cards on the table and then ask me to comment.
So at the risk of guessing incorrectly, I assume you're alluding to their involvement with the PACE trial and the stance they've taken in response to the conclusions, which contrasts pretty sharply with that of MEA. In that respect, if that is what you mean, I can't disagree with you.
However, it doesn't alter the fact that they are two different organisations.
The problem with a complex situation like this is that the well informed may think that others are making some obscure political point when, in fact, they are simply revelling in their ignorance. I vaguely remember hearing that AYME were AfME's "sister" organisation and that the one grew out of the other, that they were, as I said, 'much of a muchness'. Apparently I'm wrong - it isn't the first time. As you can see, I have no cards and I didn't know what the table was.
This reminds me of a chess game I once witnessed between two friends. Player A put his Queen into harm's way. Player B spent ten minutes trying to figure out what this Queen sacrifice could mean and what attack would be unleashed upon him if he took up the challenge. Whereas in fact Player A simply wasn't very good at chess.
