GPs could use astrology to treat patients more efficiently, says MP
28 July 2014 | By Sofia Lind


David Tredinnick, Conservative MP for Bosworth, said he believes that the ancient practice - used in western, eastern and native American cultures for thousands of years - could ‘certainly’ be useful to GPs and also help reduce the cost of NHS as a whole.

The debate was important, he added, to stop the overuse of antibiotics and reduce pressure on doctors, by guiding patients in understanding what type of ailments they may be prone to, based on the position of the planets at the time they were born.

Tredinnick is a well known loon and perhaps the safest place for him to be is Parliament, out of the way of real people.

A Science writer from the New Scientist magazine stood against him on principle for the "Science Party" at the 2010 Election but only got 197 votes.
Tredinnick got 42% of the vote i.e. 58% of the electorate didn't want him so he won hands down, but hey, that's our undemocratic First Past the Post system for you.
