[quote user="alex gough"]After Edzard Ernst stirred the pot last week:

I sent him a direct tweet saying that vets use homeopathy, and animals dont get either informed consent or benefit from placebo, and the great man retweeted me! Yay!

Not pulling any punches these days since HRH the Ponce of Wales got him the sack!
