Recently the CMA levied fines of £84 million to those companies that caused a price hike for liothyronine, causing untold distress for many thyroid patients.

Dr Peter Taylor has created a Government Petition requesting that an amount equivalent to a proportion of the fine (1-5%) is made available for thyroid research and support for patients with hypothyroidism.

Can you imagine how much thyroid research can be done with £4,000,000???

I think it's only right that some of that fine should go to thyroid research so do please sign this petition and let's get it to 100,000 signatures so that it is debated in Parliament!

Have signed, but more need to do so - its at 790 so far so it’s going up

[tattybogle in reply to TSH110]

cool , am just 'tagging' lists of anyone who's followed me as i can't do any of that social media sharing malarky. ( i'm too antisocial lol)

[TSH110 in reply to tattybogle]

It’s really going up now over 4k have signed I presume people are passing it on, so hopefully it will really boost the numbers further. 100 k seems a huge challenge even so., but fingers crossed….it ought to be possible if you can reach massive numbers of people.

[crabapple in reply to TSH110]

just gone up to 834

[RedApple Administrator in reply to Tabi-Lion5]

We've been running repeated polls for this petition since it was started.

When a poll first goes out, forum members are emailed about it directly. So you should have received an email today, because I re-ran the poll today. 😊

Where is the money from the rest of the fine going?

I have written to the CMA to ask this very question. If/when I get a reply I will post.

Signed and taken the opportunity to write to my MP to support this petition too. I remind her when I can of the appalling treatment in my area of Tyne and Wear where Professor Pearse does not allow T3 for any patients. The statistics prove this situation.

[mfinn]

Signed but I hope Professors Pearce and Weetman are not involved in any research.

[arTistapple in reply to mfinn]

I have found Dr. Taylor to be enthusiastic about thyroid issues. He lives in the world of Pearse and yet manages to rise above him, in all ways. I worry about his future in endocrinology due to his enthusiasm. Is Weetman still around? The ‘old guard’ and even the relatively ‘new guard’ Pearse, dull as ditchwater. Roll on new blood. Not forgetting off course our mighty Diogenes. Can hardly wait for his (and his compatriots) book.

[TSH110 in reply to mfinn]

It would be ironic if the money went to those two charlatans.

Mind you following their logic of not treating anyone until they are virtually dead, might render their positions untenable - for what is it that they are doing if they have no thyroid patients needing treatment? Also what’s there to research if according to them, no one needs thyroid hormone treatment anymore?

Congratulations on taking us back to the 1870’s - do you think they’ll get an award for it?

[arTistapple in reply to TSH110]

I could be wrong but I don’t think Pearse is much of a scientist/researcher. I have only come across truly appalling research with his name attached. I know he supervises students, which is in itself very worrying. He gets to train junior doctors not to help patients as well as actually ridicule patients directly. What joy for him! Weetman I hope is old enough to be gone.

I wonder if they would/should consider all our extra costs of T3 or even better our claims for downright negligence going back many years?

[tattybogle in reply to arTistapple]

Weetman.... not gone away yet , still got fingers in pies .

healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

[arTistapple in reply to tattybogle]

Ah yes I remember this one. Another truly dreadful piece of ‘work’. And of course it’s dated 2023. They could not make it any clearer how deeply they despise thyroid patients.

[TSH110 in reply to tattybogle]

I wish I was cooking the pies I’d burn them

🔥 🤣🔥👋🏽🥧🤣🥧👋🏽🔥🤣🔥

[TSH110 in reply to arTistapple]

I don’t think Pearce is much of anything at all but a darn menace to society

[arTistapple in reply to TSH110]

Wholeheartedly agree.

[Zephyrbear]

I was the 74th person to sign this petition after seeing it on Twitter (X) yesterday. If everybody (UK based) on this forum signed it Peter Taylor would easily get it past the 100,000 signatures necessary for a debate in parliament, so get signing, please!

[Ogbourne]

Signed. Currently 572 signatures.

[arTistapple in reply to Ogbourne]

Excellent I was 299 earlier today. I do hope people get family etc to sign too. Other good petitions have failed because of lack of support. I do hope this one gains even more momentum!

All done .You're great Lynn . Couldn't agree more with sentiments

[Jumbelina]

I've signed (800 now) but I'm concerned at the modesty of the request and feel that the rest of the fine should remain in the NHS and mostly earmarked for non pharma health education

[RedApple Administrator in reply to Jumbelina]

Totally agree! But I'm also worried that we won't get enough signatures on the petition to even bring it to the attention of the government 😨

Just checked and there's only 963 signatures. Isn't there a way to alert all 133,072 members of TUK ?

[helvella Administrator Thyroid UK in reply to mfinn]

There is no way for us to alert all members of this forum.

This issue has arisen before and it is clearly not an approach HealthUnlocked feel is appropriate. And I know I would not want to be bombarded with regular emails trying to tell me to do something! However frustrating it is in our current situation.

[mfinn in reply to helvella]

That's a shame. I wouldn't mind receiving emails asking for help with something like this but I realise everyone's different. While I'm here Helvella, I'd like to thank you for all the work you put into the NHS Drug Tariff list and other interesting topics you bring up.
