If there is a way to help those who want help then it has to be tried regardless of the minority that extract the urine. If society has to have a chance of reducing these kinds of crime its a case of if you dont succeed the try try again. Without an approach that is different if not radical then what chance do we have of finding a lasting solution to all these ills. If we keep knocking and deriding these efforts we will have at best a status quo at worst
a lot more of the same ills. Give them a chance for all our sakes.

Exactly! It's not the views that Remedi was espousing that caused the problem - after all, many others have put forward similarly liberal views without all this furore. Rather, it was the high-handed, patronising manner in which they were expressed. People do not like being talked down to, whatever their political stripe!

If there is anyone who sympathises with Mr & Mrs Remedi how could they make a donation to the organisation of which Remedi claims to be a director when he won't even tell us the name of his charity?

I would hazard a guess at this given it's location and that of the posters;

You could be bang on there.

I think the 2006 Annual Report is somewhat of a misnomer. What does it actually report ?

Thanks for that, Dave, quite interesting stuff. If he'd hung around, he could've explained to us more about how it works and what sort of success rate they have - he might even have been able to alter the perceptions of "hang 'em, whip 'em, flog 'em" types like myself! But now he's taken his ball and gone home, we'll never know.
