As a sufferer from RA, I am mortally offended. Lucky for you that we are not in Scotland where their super dooper new hate law would see you spending a year in jail for this.
Nevertheless I shall be suing BM just as soon as I have recovered my composure. My therapist reckons I will be fine in about a year so his fees will add a fair whack to the damages.
Meanwhile I am exploring the possibility of suing on behalf of Rheumatologists everywhere who will be insulted by this outrage.
