North Yorkshire, plant-based, yet another late-diagnosed ADHDer

The NHS just did a big independent review that concluded that ADHD is still significantly under diagnosed and under supported.
But that's not the answer he wanted.
So he's ordering a new conclusion.

An independent taskforce *just* did a huge review of ADHD in England, and the conclusion was that it's "under-recognised, under-diagnosed and under-treated."

Surely ‘tackling a rising demand for services’ means ‘denying people with ADHD the right to diagnosis and appropriate care’ which: do you want the number of folk on benefits/out of work to drop? Then you need: diagnosis and appropriate care!
Wow, feels like this government won't rest until everyone in Britain is a neurotypical middle manager who delegates every thought to ChatGPT.

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

Every dollar JK Rowling makes from Harry Potter is going into bankrolling an extortion racket issuing legal threats to organizations across the UK to purge themselves of trans people or face ruinous lawfare.
i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry

The age bias in politics is psychologically fascinating
Basically, "Candidate is too young to know how to run things" [Speculative] is often seen as worse than "Candidate is old enough to have demonstrated, often repeatedly, that they don't know how to run things" [Confirmed]
And that's weird
