Re, Rod Liddle, Pretend disabled really ARE sick (The Sun, 26 January 2012)
"I understand that you already have received more than 100 complaints about Rod Liddle's article,Pretend disabled really ARE sick in The Sun, 26 January 2012. Please add my name to the list.
Since I know that this figure will grossly underestimate the actual number of people offended and distressed because an estimated 25% are so severely affected as to be housebound or bedridden that they may be unaware the offence was committed and, of the remainder, the majority will not have sufficient energy to write.
I have, therefore, initiated two mutually exclusive choices to redress the balance: (1) suggest that people affected by M.E., or their carers, e-mail or write to you with the standard two opening lines I have sent to you. Please do not take this to be laziness but some compensation for their extreme lack of energy; OR (not both) (2) sign a petition, I have started but not signed to avoid double counting. This includes people from outside the UK, who are nevertheless affected by International broadcasting, whether you would normally regard them within your remit.
