Stop the funding of homeopathy on the NHS.

Closed 259 signatures

What the petition asks

A 2010 House of Commons Science and Technology Committee report on homeopathy said that homeopathic remedies perform no better than placebos, and that the principles on which homeopathy is based are "scientifically impossible". Please stop funding it on the NHS. It's lunacy to fund such nonsense.
