UK Govt To Add Flouride To Drinking Water

The government is planning to fluoridate all UK water supplies starting in North East England. They’ve put out a consultation, which runs to the 2nd week of June

Could you share with anyone who might be interested and can comment on the consultation.

It’s probably a done deal but we should continue to pushback wherever possible.

For anyone with appropriate water filters at home it’s less of an issue but will affect people if they go out even just for coffee!

Exerpts from the proposal:

Around 1 in 10 people in England currently have fluoride added to their drinking water supplies. We are proposing to expand community water fluoridation further in the north east.

Following this consultation, subject to a decision by the Secretary of State, the government would enter into agreements with NWL to increase the level of fluoride to the water supply in specified areas.

The Secretary of State is also responsible for reimbursing water companies for costs associated with water fluoridation schemes with no impact on customer bills.

This proposal builds on earlier work supported by local authorities and partners in the north east to publicly consult on expanding community water fluoridation.

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a maximum level of 1.5 milligrams of fluoride per litre of water (mg/L). There is strong scientific evidence that water fluoridation schemes can help reduce tooth decay and is a safe and effective intervention.

The government can require water companies to increase the naturally occurring concentration of fluoride in water supplies to 1.0 mg/L. This is well within WHO’s recommended maximum level known to reduce tooth decay.

Similar schemes operate around the world covering an estimated 400 million people, including in the USA, Canada and Ireland. Around 6 million people in England already have extra fluoride added to their water supply, while some supplies provide a similar level of fluoride naturally.

We have asked NWL to investigate whether it would be operable and efficient to supply fluoridated water throughout the rest of the north east of England. This could largely be achieved by introducing the necessary equipment at existing water treatment works.

Expanding community water fluoridation in the north east will generate a net social benefit of £315 million to:

  • reduce tooth decay in children and adults
  • reduce the disparities in dental health, particularly for children
  • reduce the need for dental services and costs to the NHS, such as children going to hospital for tooth extractions due to decay and managing the burden of pain and infection

Many places in the north east of England are already covered by existing agreements to increase fluoride levels, dating back to the late 1960s and around half the population of the area. These existing areas include:

  • parts of County Durham
  • Gateshead
  • Newcastle upon Tyne
  • North Shields
  • Wallsend
  • Whitley Bay

Proposed expansion areas

Our proposal would extend this further so that the following local authorities would all have fluoridated water at a level that reduces tooth decay:

  • Darlington
  • Durham
  • Gateshead
  • Hartlepool
  • Middlesbrough
  • Newcastle
  • Northumberland
  • North Tyneside
  • Redcar and Cleveland
  • South Tyneside
  • Stockton
  • Sunderland

Because of the way water is provided, there would also be some supply to neighbouring parts of Westmorland and Furness Council and North Yorkshire Council areas.

Excluded areas

Feasibility work has identified that there are some isolated rural areas where it would be impractical due to their location to supply fluoridated water in a cost-effective way.

Areas in and around Hartlepool are also largely supplied by Anglian Water where water naturally contains fluoride at a level that is beneficial to dental health.

Those areas are also therefore not part of the proposal to expand the community water fluoridation scheme.

    Just another murder scheme but this time using poison fluoride. There is no proof fluoride stops tooth decay.

    First it is schools that have to introduce teeth cleaning lessons and next it will be forced fluoride intake. It causes bowel problems. So just like covid vaccinations the problems it will cause are far worse than the assumed benefit.

    Simply amazing, introducing fluoride in some parts of the world while it has been removed in others because of negative health impacts.

    The cover story is that Fluoride saves your teeth.
    The backstory is that the Aluminum Industry was going broke to responsibly dispose of the Fluoride that is a poisonous by-product of Aluminum manufacturing.
    So, the “government” corporations that own the Aluminum manufacturing sector as a National Security Investment (aircraft need aluminum) found this one aforementioned benefit of Fluoride ingestion and sold it heavily to the licensed dentists who are under their thumb anyway, told this partial truth to the public, and that is how they turned the cost of responsibly disposing of a noxious industrial by-product into a saleable commodity and profit-maker for the Aluminum manufacturers and the foreign “government” investors.
    This was done to us, without our consent, at our expense, literally and health-wise, too.

    Yes, Fluoride does kill the bacteria that cause dental caries; so does chewing a

    An additional concern is the extent to which the fluoride in the adulterated water might be absorbed through the skin whenever we bathe, shower, or hand-wash other items with it.

    I’ve raised this issue with Darlington’s war criminal tory MP Peter Gibson, in the past, only to get a textbook government reply as per usual.
    The last time I heard of this was last year, when criminal professor Chris Whitty made the suggestion that we should be poisoned, but it was raised in 2017 and 2018 also, in the Northern Echo newspaper.
    CONCLUSION:
    There aren’t enough people with braincells who will oppose all this infact most around here seem to be in favour of it completely.
    This country is well and truly screwed, with so many NPC Karen’s being quick to jump as high as this NWO government-of-occupation tell them to.
    Sadly, I am in the position of being run off the edge of the cliff along with the morons, most of whom are gmo’d and no longer even human.
    Like with the condemned Palestinian’s (please see my last “Roo63” video upload, which should be easy enough to find), we are just goyim fish in the barrel, waiting to be exterminated and this British/israeli scumbag government, are “fully” complicit in the murder of millions of people.
    Thanks for the heads up, Carmel.
