"No physician in his right senses would prescribe for a person he has never met, whose medical history he does not know, a substance which is intended to create bodily change, with the advice: 'Take as much as you like, but you will take it for the rest of your life because some children suffer from tooth decay. ' It is a preposterous notion."

Dr Peter Mansfield, Director, Templegarth Trust.

"Fluoridation is the greatest case of scientific fraud of this century, if not of all time." -

Robert Carton, PhD, scientist, formerly of the US Environmental Protection Agency.

The UK water Industry: They poison Children, dont they?

 

Ask yourself:

Why would the UK water industry request from the government "absolute indemnity on civil liability and indemnity on strict criminal liability as far as public policy allows" - before they would extend fluoridation schemes in Britain? (http://www.water.org.uk/home/policy/positions/fluoridation-water-supplies)

And they got it from the government in 2005 (www.legislation.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2005/20050920.htm).

The only logical conclusion that we at NPWA could come to was that the UK water industry was fully aware that it is already involved in a dubious, risky practice with possible ancillary criminal activities. Otherwise, why would an industry ask to be indemnified by the government for criminal and civil liabilities unless they knew they were in violation of the law?

This request can only be viewed as an admission of guilt, and further, as willingness to continue violating the law as long as they have some government protection. Consequently, one can only interpret the message from the UK water industry to the government and the general public as:

It is perfectly willing to participate in dubious and/or criminal activities on behalf of the government as long as it has some assurance that its legal costs will be covered if it gets caught out.

Immunity from prosecution is not in the cards for criminal actions or they would have asked for that concession.

In 1999, the Earl Baldwin of Bewdley asked Her Majesty's Government:

"In view of the absence of any relevant scientific studies cited in the US Review of Fluoride, 1991, referred to in the Written Answer by Baroness Hayman on 8 February (WA 1-2), whether they can quote any other scientific sources in support of their belief that dental fluorosis is only a cosmetic side-effect of fluoride and not an indication of early toxicity." [HL1964]

Baroness Hayman responded, in a Written Answer, for the Government: "We accept that dental fluorosis is a manifestation of systemic toxicity. . . " - (Hansard, 20 Apr 1999 : WA 158.).

It is estimated that between 48% - 54% of children living in fluoridated areas develop dental fluorosis, the visible sign of fluoride poisoning. (http://www.npwa.freeserve.co.uk/seminar.html)

That's right folks, the UK water industry doesn't have the slightest problem with mass-poisoning children on behalf of the government. The only problem it has with poisoning children is if it happens to find itself in a court of law, facing civil and/or criminal charges.

This is also what NPWA suspects prompted the UK water industry to basically ask the government to pass a law that obliged them to fluoridate the drinking water upon the request of local health authorities. As honest, upright, corporate citizens, the UK water industry could not, in good conscience, break the law. (http://www.water.org.uk/home/policy/positions/fluoridation-water-supplies)

This attitude is somewhat hypocritical and sociopathic (to say the least). You ask the government to change the law so that you can attempt to hide behind the law. However, you are still worried that you might wind up in the dock, facing criminal and/or civil charges. So you need indemnities, because no insurer in the world will indemnify you for the mass-poisoning of children - that's a non-starter for any insurance underwriter's risk analyst.

NPWA saw this as a transparent attempt to use the Nazis' failed Nuremberg defence. If one of the water company managing directors finds himself looking at a few years in prison, he simply parrots, "We were only following orders." However, the UK water industry gleefully "welcomed" the change in the law which made it unlawful for them not to poison children.

The only reason the UK water industry asked for "strict criminal indemnity" is because NPWA and other organisations have widely publicised the fact that fluoridation is a criminal act according to the ss 23 and 24 of the Offences Against the Persons Act 1861, which forbids the administration of any poisonous or noxious substance.

In 1999 the government freely admitted that dental fluorosis is the manifestation of fluoride poisoning. And in a sociopathic quest for profit and government favour, the UK water industry is more than willing engage in the criminal activity of posioning the public at large.

So much for corporate ethics.

NPWA to UK Water Industry - You can always sue us if we are not telling the truth.

What happens if a lorry load of hexafluorosilicic acid ends up spilled on your doorstep or next to your car during rush hour traffic on the motorway? Is there adequate emergency planning? What are the risks of transporting the second most corrosive and toxic acid across Britain? Have any of the people pushing water fluoridation given it a thought? The one thing you can put your money on is the water companies could care less because, courtesy of the government, they will have civil and criminal indemnity.

    The Final Word on Fluoride?

    Between 1999 and 2000, the NHS Centre for Reviews and Dissemination at York University has been engaged in a "once and for all . . .unchallengable" review of the evidence of benefit and harm from fluoridation. Having excluded most of the evidence of adverse effects, its final results and findings were published on 6 October 2000.
    Read all about this latest disgrace!


    York Review Chairman concerned about "misrepresentation" by profluoride lobby
    Despite its narrow inclusion protocol and obvious flaws, the pro-fluoride lobby - British Fluoridation Society, the British Dental Journal , British Medical Journal and other dental organisations throughout the world - jumped on it as evidence that water fluoridation was both safe and effective.
         Now Professor Trevor Sheldon, MSc, MSc, DSc, FMedSci, a Review Chairman, has written of his concern that the results of the review are being widely misrepresented by proponents of fluoridation.


    Ten percent of British tap water is fluoridated

    Thanks to financial assistance from our members, the NPWA has successfully prevented the fluoridation of ninety percent of British public water supplies.

    Fluoride is banned or has been abandoned throughout continental Europe, China and Japan. In the remaining five countries that still add fluoride to water supplies opposition is growing as people see the harm fluoride can do.

    Five million people in Britain are still forced to drink fluoride-polluted water. And, despite the overwhelming evidence of harm, even now the British government is considering a change in the law to compel all water companies in Britain to add fluoride to ALL our water supplies. The fight must go on.


    The first city to be fluoridated was Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA, in 1945. It was America that exported the idea of adding fluoride to drinking water to the world. But by 1997 the evidence against fluoride could be not be ignored any longer. In July, 1,500 Union scientists and other professionals at the USEPA headquarters in Washington DC voted unanimously to back a call for fluoridation to be ended. Here are their leader's reasons

    Public Perception of Dental Fluorosis?

    "With few exceptions the biochemistry of fluorine [fluoride] emphasizes its toxic features. The production of endemic dental fluorosis (mottled enamel) in human beings by drinking water is an outstanding example of the toxic effect of the excessive intake of the element." McClure, FJ, Ingestion of fluoride and dental caries, American Journal Diseases of Children 66: 362-369. 1943.
