In case you’ve missed the coverage from @bbchw - here is today’s powerful interview with @CunliffeSue and @andyluff8 testifying to their lasting brain damage from poorly regulated (and in practice unregulated) ECT. ‘One of the biggest scandals in British medical history’? https://twitter.com/felicitykvesic/status/1392442215608340483
