Prime Minister,

London

Dear Mr Blair,

How the NHS is Killing us all off.
Causing Mr Tony Blair to be guilty of a lack of "Duty of Care"

I am "The Grandma who Eats Cannabis" and I am writing to inform you of "Why" I ingest Cannabis for pain relief. During the last two weeks, only one reporter asked "Why" do you eat Cannabis, and it is such a serious matter that I believe I should write and tell you Mr Blair, after all, you are the leader of this country, and only you can do something about the dangerous lethal medication which the NHS are buying and which is the reason why millions of people are in the position of

1. Taking up the precious time of G.P's at their surgeries, on a weekly basis, because after one visit, for one health problem, these same people, are developing up to an average of nine separate health problems, over a 6 months period or more.
2. This is also affecting our Hospitals, inasmuch as they are also inundated with patients, and the whole system is completely clogged up, giving a 2nd rate service because of this dangerous product of lethal medication. We have the worst record in Europe for Cancer care, and you, Mr Blair, could change all that
3. Every Man, Woman and Child in this country are developing these multiple health problems, which will ensure a decidedly painful and sad old age, with many people crippled with Arthritis, in the majority of cases, making it impossible for them to feed themselves, because of the effects on their hands and fingers.
4. Since my case came into the public arena, I have received more than 100 letters from people in this country, America, New Zealand and France, asking "what does a dose consist of" and "How can I get the Cannabis", plus I have learned that there are three other "Cannabis cooking clubs, one of which is North of where I live, with over 1000 elderly and disabled members, and one in the midlands with over 2,000 members, and one in the South of England with more than 500 members, and my cannabis eating club has risen to 138 members, in 2 weeks, which makes a total of nearly 4,000 ill and elderly people who have no faith in the NHS medication.
5. I have just read of a Butcher who was made bankrupt eventually, because one case of bad ham, had the authorities closing down his shop, publicising it in the local newspaper - because they were concerned for the health of the local community. Why don't you not do the same to the Pharmaceutical Companies, because they are causing so much pain and distress, by having multiple side effects to their medication?

All the chemicalised, synthetic and extremely poor quality medication with up to 100 side effects is not good enough, we want quality medication, and I believe we have the "Human Right" to expect it. If you are fortunate enough to be able to afford Private Medical Care, then you must remember, you will still be receiving the same inept, lethal and dangerous medication, as the rest of us, and frankly, it is absolute rubbish.

I am telling you now, that the medication which you and your government approve, to be given to every Man Woman and Child in this country, is unacceptable, with it's range of 6 - 100 side effects, I expect, the same kind of justice to be given to the pharmaceutical companies, and if not - why not?

During the last 3 years, I have been researching a wide variety of our medication, which is usually prescribed by Doctors, but, some of which is available over the chemist shop counter. I would like to talk with you as a parent - not as the Prime Minister. I am the mother of a 25-year-old son, and you are a father, with, I believe, three sons. Let me paint you a scenario, which could become a reality in 10 years time. Let us imagine, that over a 3-year period all your son's become ill, to varying degrees, and at different times, including my son. This is immediately dealt with by Doctors, in the form of G.P's or Hospitals, and they are all prescribed a similar medication. If this happened within the confines of your family, and for a few months, your son's consumed a particular type of tablet, do you realise, they can, in this day and age of the 21st Century, become Impotent which means they will never have the opportunity of a loving relationship with a woman, plus, they will never know the pleasure of fathering a child.
Now, when you oldest son realises he has been made Impotent,he is going to ask "Dad, you were Prime Minister foreight years, during which you clamped down on people who were smoking - because you knew that cigarettes had 2 dangerous side effects, which could cause heart troubleand Cancer, and because you cared about every man, womanand child in the country, you really worked hard atgetting the message across by banning cigarette smokingin Public places, and I respect you for that, as do theBritish People. You also took stringent steps to makethe public aware of the danger of fast foods, and bannedadvertising of harmful fast foods for children, and Irespect you for that, as did the British people, but whydid you never investigate the deplorable quality ofmedication, which can have nearly 100 side effectsto it?.

He will then go on to say, "I'msorry Dad, but Medication which is given to everyone in this country is dangerous, it has a serious range ofside effects from 6 per medication to nearly 100 sideeffects per medication, why did you allow such poorquality medication to be sold to the NHS. Why did youput every Man Woman & Child, in so much danger. Lookwhat it has done to me and my brothers, and ColinTabram, I'm sorry, but I hate you for this. Our livesare now ruined because you allowed the Pharmaceuticalcompanies to do what they like, and to manufacturemedicine which is so "High risk" to men, women and children. Were you afraid to say to them, that even twoside effects is unacceptable, or did you listen too muchto all their "Sound Bite" excuses?

"Dad, they were just businessmen, wanting to make a lot of money,but half way through trying to perfect each medicinethey would think, oh! I have to get it out on the marketand make some money, and the government will just acceptour word, so let us start selling them now, to make moremoney and to start on a new medication. Maybe one day wewill get it right, but it is too costly to try toperfect each medication at the moment". Will you have an answer for your sons? Will you then be happy to think,that you will see your family fall apart? " Will you want them to become estranged from you and your wife,and will you enjoy seeing them being unhappy for therest of their lives? I don't think so, you yourself will suffer, as a result of this - simply by watchingresentment grow in them. And when you meet your colleague friends, who extol the virtues and pleasure ofbeing a grandparent, you would be denied that pleasure,knowing that the "Blair" family will not have any more descendents, because you failed to stop, what is a serious problem. He may go on to say "Were you afraid ofupsetting the Pharmaceutical companies, because Irealise they must have been very powerful and imposing companies.- or did you simply not care."

Oh Dad, 2 side effects to anything, be it food, cigarettes or medicine (particularly Medicine) is unacceptable inthe 21st Century, yet you ignored it, when you were in a position of authority - The Ultimate position of Authority in this country - you simply refused to tell these big powerful companies that no medication would be allowed, which had more than 2 side effects, and the result is that tens of millions of members of the public, who go to the Doctor, with one health problem, end up within 2 years, having 6 - 7 or even 8 health problems, and face a life of taking 25 to 45 tablets per day, and they will suffer from all these health problems for the rest of their lives. Did you not realise that? He will go on to tell you that his life and that of his brothers and my son, are ruined, and he will be very bitter, and probably tell you that he will never forgive you - for the rest of his life, for allowing so much pain and unhappiness to the people of Great Britain.

(As a Taxi driver said to me, when I asked him why he had not read the medication information sheet, inside his box of medicine, to check the "side effects" - I was told, "Well, you trust your G.P. "don't you?"). But it is not the fault of the G.P., Youare the Leader of this Country, and you owe aDuty of Care to every Man, Woman andChild in this country, and if you could be so stringentregarding cigarettes (with two side effects) andfattening foods, what is your reason for neglecting thehealth of everyone. And so you will face, the end of theBlair Dynasty - would that make you happy?

But please stop! And think!


Because these same pharmaceutical companies are selling these poisonous tablets, to countries all over the world, because your government has not got the courage to stand up to them and say, "One side effect per medication is a disgrace, let alone 2 ore 3, but any medicine with between 3 to 100 side effects is disgraceful and will be illegal and withdrawn from today, and for ever."The trouble is, that "Money Talks" and when coupled with power, we have a lethal combination, and every man woman and child is in grave danger, literally,and something has to be done -

You and your government supervise everything in our lives, except the colour of the Toilet Paper we use on Sunday's - and although the majority of people in this country are becoming extremely disloyal to you, because they feel you are abusing your power by introducing the "NannyState" - I personally, am willing to accept it, and give you the loyalty and support you want, if you are willing to attack something which is making more than 40,000,000 people in this country, more and more ill on a daily basis, even, killing them off, causing them to be suicidal, and breaking up families who cannot cope with their individual growing health complaints, which you are allowing Pharmaceutical Companies to create.

Please don't not tell me that you have talked to the Scientists and they have assured you etc.,if the Scientists disagree with the medicine makers, they stand in danger of losing their jobs. Just think of the great professor who was sacked from his job, as adirect result of "coming out" on Radio 4, stating that Mad Cow Disease did exist, contrary to what the Thatcher government was stating, by showing a member of the cabinet with his grandchild eating a beef burger - bigmistake, - because within 5 years, after many people died and became ill with mad cow's disease, we were then faced with a government who had to apologise. Plus, that Scientist was sacked. The same happened over the foot and mouth disease drama - eventually, because the government would not listen to the farmer's or any oneelse, an apology had to be made over the senseless disaster and useless way in which the crisis was handled.

Mr Blair, we have all got to come down to earth, and I will continue to medicate with fresh cannabis, and I will continue to attempt to grow fresh Cannabis within the confines of my own home, for my own use, to keep myself fit and well, until I have the confidence in modern medication, which I am entitled to have, The Pharmaceutical companies may say that only One in 5,000 will become impotent - which means that 12,000 people every year will be made impotent !!!!!! I find that is disgusting and unacceptable.

I ingest Fresh Cannabis bud, in all my food, using only 1/8th of a teaspoon of freshly ground Cannabis bud, per meal, only 5 days per week, and after having developed morethan 6 health problems through British Medication, by using Cannabis as medication, I am now Pill free, Pain Free and my hearing aid and walking stickare redundant. I am not afraid to defend my right to self medicate, and if it is your wish to have a 66 year old widow, persistently harassed, arrested and possibly imprisoned, for trying to avoid the dangers of British Medication, then go ahead and do your worst, but I will not stop, until I am assured that British Medication is known as the best in the world, and none of it has more than 2 serious side effects. As a member of the human race, and one of the members of the public here in Great Britain, for whom you are responsible, I am looking to you to take your responsibilities seriously, please stop the growing nightmare, of every Man, Woman and Child, developing the most horrendously long lists of health problems which are gradually killing them off, after they are suffering for months and even years, due to the incompetence of the Pharmaceutical companies, who rush their medicines onto the market in order to keep control of the market and make more and more money for themselves.

I now list just a few medicines, with their total side effects for you to study. Then you may understand why I cure my ills with fresh herbs, not chemicalised herbs, after all, I do not ask the Pharmaceutical companies to crystallise fresh mint, for me to add to vinegar for mint sauce to accompany my Roast Lamb, so I most certainly do not want the healing powers of a herb known as Cannabis to be contaminated by allowing the big greedy pharmaceutical companies to makee ven more billions and billions of pounds, by convincing you that "Herbs are much better after the pharmaceutical companies have played with them." I am living proof that they are not...Now, we come to the challenge!!!.

14. How the NHS are killing us off


1. You have three choices in this country, if you have, any, of a wide variety of health problems.
  • You can go to your GP and get the medication he will prescribe,
  • You can go to a local hospital, and receive the same medication.
  • You can go to a local chemist and buy what you want.

    2. On the other hand, you can choose from avariety of old fashioned (many, "Hundreds of years old")recipes, handed down through families, for generations. This is what I grew up with, since before the 2nd World War.

    3. Plus there is one other option; you can choose; "Cannabis" either - cooked in your food, (inextremely small amounts) or smoked, or inhaled through a Vaporizer, to mask the pain of a wide variety of Health Problems with a lack of side effects - unlike the NHS medication.

    Remember, Cannabis has been growing on the earth, since before man - and it is simply a plant, and is known as the Hemp plant by some, but which has many uses. However, make up your own mind, and remember, I only have a few examples in this letter, there are thousands of tablets with vast lists of side-effects. Do you want the people you love to end up as I did?

    We have constantly been told that 1 in 4 people suffer from depression. Ingesting Cannabis,helps lift depression, within 24 hours, and if the public were made aware of the fact that many NHS tablets actually cause depression, I am sure they would rather be allowed to self medicate, if the government statistics are correct, and if it really is 1 in 4 who suffer, this means that 15,000,000 people suffering from depression inundated with synthetic medication on a weekly basis, filling all our surgeries and hospitals, and at least, 30% of them will commit suicide at sometime.

    Mr Blair, shouldn't you be concentrating on helping these people to get their lives back in order, to take away the despair and the danger of suicide. People suffering from Depression are people who care and have a lot of love to give, they enter the dark shadows of depression as the result of the death of a child, the loss of a pregnancy, the death of a parent of sibling, the break-up of a marriage, the loss of a job or through absorbing poor NHS medication. They need an assortment of 20/30 tablets per day, like a hole in the head. Let them self medicate, and this would leave the surgeries with more time to give to the Cancer, Aids, and Serious Heart Conditions (many of which are brought on by inferior, bad quality medication) so that a Doctor could give 20 minutes to these patients instead of 3 minutes. At last we would have a quality medical service in the country, and a growing, healthy workforce.

    Surely, even you can see the advantages in this - after all, we have the worst record in the whole of Europe for Cancer Care, wouldn't you much rather enhance your reputation, and start to get back, the respect and support you would like to have, from every man woman and child in this country. Your position as the head of the British Government, means you owe a Duty of Care to every Man, Woman and Child, in this great country of ours. If you were to fail in this duty, it would be agreed, you were no longer fit to retain your position of power and authority. Therefore Mr Blair, I challenge you to put an end to the suffering of more than 40,000,000 people, who are being made extremely ill, on a daily basis, by them edication, which is flowing from the pharmaceutical companies.

    Could it be that:- Someone in your government is letting you down, by not supervising there lease of medication from the Pharmaceutical companies through the Hospitals, General Practitioners, and Chemists?

    I have another question for you:-Is there any one in the government, responsible for "Quality Control" of medication?

    If the answer is "No!"- then as the ultimate leader, you are failing in your duty to carry out your responsibility to provide a "Duty of care" to every Man, Woman and Child. Thus, I challenge the Govt., and Pharmaceutical Scientists to prove otherwise. Naturally they are going to defend their product, or they will lose their jobs - come on - it is common sense, that government scientists will have to say what they are told to say, or they will all be unemployed. Sound bites will not make this problem go away.

    Before I show you the long lists of medications, who makes them and who distributes them, which you really need to read most carefully, because it is my intention to put the same information to the public, and the media around the world, as I have given to you. I hope you will have the courage to read the long lists of ‘faults' - i.e., side effects which are costing the lives of all of us. Take yourself for instance, you could well have lost your hair as a result of NHS medication - do you want that to happen to your boys and your daughter, - it has happened to me - on the top of my head. In fact, Diclofenic is one of the most commonly used medications and all the highlighted side effects in the example below, are side effects I have suffered from, it has made me so afraid of our medication.

    Alcohol is such a dangerous drug, people become addicted to it - just as they become addicted to chocolate bars, fast foods and coca cola - -but people who become addicted to alcohol, go out in their cars and kill members of the public, and this happens on a weekly basis in our country - yet you are extending the opening hours, - you are not clamping down on opening hours. In the 1940's when I was a child "Public House opening hours were 12.00 midday to 3.00pm then 6.00pm to 10.00pm " why do you want to open the pubs for 24 hours, when you know it will make more people " more drunk " more regularly? Which will then result in more deaths on the road. Cannabis does not cause this to happen, because if you overdose on Cannabis, you simply Vomit and sleep away the hours ahead of you. How will you feel, if one of your sons, has his face slashed by a broken glass, from the hands of someone who is allowed to drink 24 hours per day - if it is your son who is hurt, no doubt you will do something about it - but I don't think you would do anything if it was my son, or the son of some other poor member of the public. But it could happen Mr Blair, it already happens to the general public.

    An addictive personality can become addicted to anything "such as the millions who have so much time on their hands that they become addicted to Soap Operas. As for people becoming addicted to the Herb Cannabis, and itcausing Schizophrenia - any Psychiatrist will tell youthat for some strange reason, Schizophrenia usually shows itself in young men between the ages of 16 - 19 years. But with supervision and the correct medication,these people can lead a full, useful and normal life. Anyone can become addicted to anything - and your about to allow more people to become addicted to more alcohol - it doesn't make sense. But remember, when you are trying to defend your position, it is no good putting a Dr in front of the T TV who is just going to support you - because there are millions of Doctors who believe that if all the young just smoked it - or ingested it, because it has a calming affect on people, there would not be the problem for the police in this country, it is only under the influence of alcohol, that people become violent.

    Remember Mr Blair, There are Hundreds and Hundreds of medications, and they are all Dangerous
    (Read on, and decide for yourself, which is the safest for you, your parents, friends and your children.)
