Isolation, psychiatric treatment and prisoner' control

07-12-2004 01:47 | European Social Forum | Education | Health | Repression | London | World

We express concern that 'Corrections Health' now 'Justice Health' psychiatrists 'can' prescribe over the recommended dose, without clinical &/or peer review?

Prisoners can, and have died as a result of injectable anti-psychotics, and that this is a worry regarding Deaths in Custody, as well as being an extremely harrowing experience to undergo if it doesn't kill you.

Blunkett's Quest, but is he on drugs?

22-11-2004 21:57 | Education | Health | Repression | London | World

The legislation is expected to introduce a new definition of "possession" of an illegal drug, making it an offence to have a certain amount in the bloodstream. This is likely to prove controversial - not least because some drugs, such as cannabis, can remain in the bloodstream for weeks.

Urgent Action - Please support Luke Winston-Jones

19-10-2004 12:38 | Health | Social Struggles | World

Only days after the High Court ruled that it is OK for doctors to refuse to offer life support to Charlotte Whyatt, the family of another disabled baby are facing the same Right to Life battle.

Luke Winston-Jones's mother Ruth will be at the High Court in London this coming Thursday and Friday to fight for her son's life.

As Ruth says "Luke is a beautiful child who has real quality of life and is full of personality. Luke’s biggest health problem at the moment is the hole he has in his heart which Alder Hey and other hospitals in the UK have refused to correct due to the fact that Luke has Edwards syndrome. Luke is being refused the treatment he so vitally needs, even though children with Edwards can live many years."

Luke's family have asked disabled people and their allies to show their solidarity by coming to the courts on either 21st or 22nd October and or to sign the following petition.


If you want to get involved simply cut and paste the following and add your name and address on sending.

Petition



We do not think that judges and medical staff should be able to decide on who should or should not receive life saving treatment on the basis of disability / impairment. We support Luke Winston-Jones Equal Rights to Life. We call upon Parliament to amend the Disability Discrimination Act so that disabled children like Luke have equal right to life and access to life saving treatment.

Send emails of support to:  mail@lukewinston-jonessupportgroup.co.uk

Cyclists force City of London 20mph zone u-turn in High Court

06-09-2004 16:17 | Health | London | World

Campaigners outside the High Court handing out leaflets
Cycling in central London could become a whole lot safer thanks to a groundbreaking court victory to revive plans for a 20mph zone. A 20mph speed limit could mean far more and lead to the centre of the capital being a vibrant space for people not a congested corridor for cars.
