A Hain-ous Crime?

    I see in the Times today that Peter Hain considers the Northern Irl NHS to be at the forefront of things as a result of funding the introduction of CAM into the mainstream to the tune of €300,000. Now people with depression and anxiety as well as musculo-skeletal problems can enjoy, for example, the 'benefits' of homeopathy despite its not having a shred of evidence to support its efficacy in treating these problems.

    CAM?

    Silliness aside, its a bit insane to fund homeopathy considering its complete nonesense. Have a link?

    Its actually not at all surprising to see endorsment of this sort of thing in the North the UK in general is a hotbed of alternative healing and in particular the endorsment of Homeopathy by the Royal family has lent it an air of credability
