Doctors sued for creating 'Valium addicts'

I agree with much of what you say. But why are you still a member of the New(Corporate)Lobby Party? Prescriptions of psychoactive drugs and psychiatric diagnoses skyrocketed under NewLabour. Of course, Cameron and chums respond to the same lobbying efforts and the rise started under Thatcher / Major. But with the notable exception of Paul Flynn, New Labour has done Big Pharma's bidding. Under NewLabour health spending doubled in real terms, but most was squandered on bureaucracy and medicalising mental health.

The shrinks (psychiatrists) deserve to be sued far more than GPs, for over-prescribing highly dangerous and debilitating anti-psychotic drugs and anti-depressants. The shrinks should also be sued for hugely exaggerating people's hurt emotional feelings and mental illness, while lying about them in order to claim that they aren't capable of making their own decision to reject the drugs and choose counselling and psychotherapy instead (by lawful right). Lawsuits against shrinks should not be confined to the over-prescription of Vallium. All of these psychotropic (or "neuroleptic") drugs cause dangerous mood swings, extreme tiredness listlessness and restlessness, and eventually detroy all vital organs including the brain. Suicide and spree-killings are also known to result from the enforcement of these drugs. GPs and shrinks should also be sued for malpractice for not warning of the risks of anti-psychotic and other psychotropic drugs: that cause sickness and death, while the drugs net the psychiatric-pharmaceutical cartel £trillions each year and cost a fraction of the sales price to produce. Enforced and coercive drugging of dangerous psychotropic drugs (they all alter the brain and nervous system) is a barbaric form of aggressive marketing of madness and sickness, and must be stopped through restoring to members of the public their basic human rights.
