[QUOTE="xyzzy, post: 282159, member: 40343"] Don't mind at all Phoenix. I agree the UK authorities have made their minds up based on reviewing a range of studies. Some of those studies will have shown positive results and some negative and I have stated as such in previous posts on this thread. However this was not however my objection to what I considered to be the oveall arrogance of the AMBrennan post. This is the objection I had: I just posted the link to the Webber research as a way of refuting AMBrennan statement to show he was completely wrong to make such a general statement. As you state at the end with competing data sets from various sources all of this is largely down to the relevant UK policy makers and their "expert" opinions. I disagree with those "expert" opinions as for example testing has patently worked very successfully for many T2 members of this forum but I realise that counts for nothing. However AMBrennan's final paragraph stating is telling T2's in what I consider to be a most arrogant and condescending way just to believe what we are told against our better judgements and experiences. I assume given the tightly controlled nature of how the e-petition is worded regarding the supply of strips and the evidence (be it anecdotal) that you have seen on this forum that you signed the petition and don't have a similar blinkered attitude?
