    Hooray! That ghastly old fraud McKeith has been forced to stop using the title “Dr.” in her advertising. It would have been even better if the ASA had forced her to be referred to at all times as “Doctor” with compulsory scare quote finger signs and a heavily sarcastic tone of voice, but that’s probably beyond their remit.

      Yeah, I love the bit where he turns it into a political issue. Not only is McKeith a mendacious, bug-eyed windbag, she only exists because of the inequalities in society that enable her to parasitise those who pay to be better than everyone else. Phil pointed out that it’s like this Cat and Girl comic.

      Woo! Rob, Fraser and I got very, very drunk with Dr Goldacre on Monday night. He’s fab. I wanted to hug him, but I think that might have scared him even more than I did anyway.

      I am highly jealous. I’d definitely buy him a pint or two given the opportunity.
