Tory MP criticised for ‘lunatic’ support of homeopathy
Prof Winston described Tory David Tredinnick, a long-term supporter of alternative medicine, as having views which have no basis in fact. He said Tredinnick’s membership of the Commons Health Select Committee was “barmy”.
Prof Winston told Total Politics magazine: “I cannot believe David Tredinnick is on that committee. Let me say firmly: I think his views are lunatic. He is absolutely right and able to stand for Parliament and to represent a constituency, but views which have no basis in fact.
