Fat cat drug firm has got no shame
YOUR front-page story (“How can a row over money deny them a longer life?”, February 7) made my blood pressure rise.
I would like to see photographs of these young children suffering from cystic fibrosis sent to the money-grabbing pharmaceutical company Vertex to be hung in its company boardroom to remind them of their greed.
Copies should also be sent to the NHS fat cats who are denying these children treatment whatever the cost and displayed in their respective ivory tower offices to remind them of their inhuman decisions.
And finally to the Whitehall mandarins in our foreign aid office who squander £14billion annually on useless overseas projects.
