"Councillors have a responsibility to uphold the basic Human Rights of the people they represent to choose what medication they and their family wish to take, and not have it enforced through their water supply."

What we have been doing recently
If you think we've been rather quiet lately, think again! Behind the scenes we've been very busy. Through our contacts in Parliament we've been challenging the government's Health and Social Care Bill through the 'back door' - amongst other things that we can't mention - YET!
The government's arrogant statement that any "infringement of human rights is acceptable if it is beneficial to oral health" is taken from a 20 year-old decision by the Commission for Human Rights. In that hearing, the evidence for its supposed propotionality was sucessfully presented by the Basel Grand Council. But a few years later, it retracted its own evidence and banned fluoridation! We have now submitted a damning analysis of the government's spurious claim to the Joint Committee on Human Rights, and will let you know its decision when (or if?) it finally comes back to us.

Human rights for paedophiles -
but not for our children!
25 September 2011
A politician claims that "any infringement of human rights arising out of water fluoridation is justified by the benefits to oral health." The idea that kids are human seems unacceptable to our 'Parliament of Fools'! MORE
PIP - the tip of a
regulatory iceberg

The NHS operates a well-oiled 'money laundering' scam to redistribute fluoride funding MORE
New evidence continues to emerge of the MHRA's astonishing regulatory failure to ensure adequate quality assurance of the PIP silicone breast implants. It is now clear that both the EC Commission for Health and Consumers (now headed by our old sparring partner, Commissioner John 'Dilly' Dalli) and national regulators of medical devices and medicines have been astonishingly incompetent and naive. They are clearly incapable of exercising adequate regulation and enforcement over the market for both medical devices and of medicinal products.
The reputation of the EC's respected CE-mark of compliance with the high standards demanded by the Directive is now in crisis. The cosmetic medical sector is extremely vulnerable to faulty goods produced by dodgy manufacturers, whilst the MHRA's refusal to regulate fluoridated water has allowed tens of thousands of children to be disfigured, to the susbtantial financial benefit of the cosmetic dental industry.
Both the breast implant scandal and the dental fluorosis epidemic have been possible because the Commission is incapable of ensuring that the regulatory system is fit for pupose. Both involve cosmetic products or procedures that are tragically defective and, for many, entirely unnecessary and avoidable. And the MHRA is right at the heart of these scandals - the cost liabilities of its incompetence are enormous, and the Agency must be brought to heel.
To those familiar with his recent remarkable statements on the MHRA's bizarre approach to legislation on fluoridation, readers will be astonished to learn that the Agency's chief stalking horse in the House of Lords, ex-banker Earl Howe, is now in charge of a government review of what happened in the UK in the PIP implant scandal.
You may not agree that a more independent and highly qualified expert could not possibly have been selected to put his hand to the helm in such a vital task - if so, I'm sure you will make your voice heard to your local MP!
