		+
		+	HI Mary
		+
		+	amended the funding bit as it seems to me that the money for Change4Life isn't coming from advertising industry, as you had, but from companies liaising thru the advertising industry--based on your source page of the Whitehall pages. This source material is really confusing -- perhaps deliberately so -- so pls check my edit and if I don't have it right come back to me on my talk page or just edit accordingly (my spinp email not working at the mo).

		+	== Men's Health Forum pharma boys ==
		+
		+	Hi Mary
		+
		+	Really interesting article on these guys. can u expand this article with any info on their actual activities or lobbying that speaks of their pharma funding?
		+
		+	I was attracted to looking at this page because I have noticed Men's Health magazine, though have not properly researched the connection between the MHF and the MH mag. The MH mag always seems to be for sale by the checkout in the supermarkets (more prominent place than you'd expect?) and when I've glanced at it I've always felt it's a front for the pharma industry but never followed it up.
		+
		+	There is an obvious bias in the mag's articles towards drug solutions that have little to do with "health" and everything to do with pharma profits.
		+
		+	Men's Health mag is not to be confused with Men's Health Journal which is the quarterly journal of the MHF--MHJ was as you say edited by Dr Ian Banks
		+
		+	As you point out the common link between MHF, MH mag and MHJ is Dr Ian Banks. I wonder if there is actual corporate/pharma backing for the MH mag OR whether its pharma bias is just down to pharma advertising in the mag, which I seem to recall is a big feature of it? if you can get hold of a copy of the MH mag and/or find out more about it, it might be worth doing a section or separate page on it as it is such a powerful voice speaking to the public. The MHJ, which was aimed at health professionals, seems to have closed down (launched 2001, closed 2003 http://www.menshealthforum.org.uk/userpage1.cfm?item_id=291). Maybe they found it's much more lucrative targeting the consumers direct??
		+
		+	all very interesting... --[[User:Claire Robinson\|Claire Robinson]] 13:47, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

		+
		+	Should be:

		+	HI Mary
		+
		+	Just to keep things neat and consistent, maybe use just the name of the org for the title of a page, so instead of
		+
		+	Helen Johnson Public Affairs, UK Staff and clients 1 June 2008 to 31 August 2008
		+
		+	just call it
		+
		+	Helen Johnson Public Affairs
		+
		+	same applies to yr page on
		+
		+	The Whitehouse Consultancy Ltd
		+
		+	you can rename pages by hitting "move" at the top of yr page and putting in new title. It looks drastic at first glance and comes up with warnings etc but I've had to do it to some of our pages in GM Watch that had odd titles.
		+
		+	If we keep to just the name of the org for our pages, then anyone in the future with more info on that org can put it in--also makes it easier for people to do searches.
		+
		+	also don't forget to put the notes bit in at the bottom so that all yr refs go there automatically. so above the categories section in each page, you put
		+
		+	==Notes==
		+	<references/>
		+
		+	thanks!

		+	Hi Mary
		+
		+	re these guys:--
		+
		+	The Association of Professional Political Consultants is a lobby group for the lobbying profession. Its main function is to prevent openness and transparency by attempting to ensure that statutory regulation is not introduced in the UK.
		+
		+	--assume this is a work in progress? we need example(s) of how they are trying to prevent openness and transparency. ie things they've done, said, etc.
