Let’s remember what actually happened at RAF Fairford. It was a local farmer heading home from a party who spotted something suspicious and called 999. Now these men were already known to intelligence agencies and had been under surveillance. If that’s true, then how the hell did it get this far? How did explosives end up in vans near a sensitive military base? At what point were they going to intervene? We’re constantly told our intelligence services are watching and keeping us safe. If they already knew about them, why weren’t they stopped before it reached this point? That’s the question. And the British public deserves a straight answer.

Please research how Folic acid affects you and your health over the next week or so. However, if you're not sure then please sign Petition for a parliamentary debate where experts will go head to head with the government and you'll learn more. Google is very self explanatory too
@sharond62 @thecoastguy re folic acid..Please highlight @ClareCraigPath petition..Folic acid is risky for millions of us.

‼️Dr Lynch says: "In this video, I use over 15 years of research into folate metabolism to explain exactly how unmetabolized folic acid blocks folate receptors in the brain and kidneys, suppresses immune function, and poses SERIOUS RISKS during PREGNANCY and INFANCY". ‼️⬇️⬇️😡
Most people assume folic acid and folate are the same thing, they are not, and that confusion has been quietly affecting your brain, immune system, and long-term health for nearly 30 years. Since 1998, the U.S. government has mandated a unnatural, biologically inactive compound into virtually everything you eat, and your body cannot reliably convert it into the form your cells actually need. In this video, I use over 15 years of research into folate metabolism to explain exactly how unmetabolized folic acid blocks folate receptors in the brain and kidneys, suppresses immune function, and poses serious risks during pregnancy and infancy.

We need to alert everyone.. ASAP
Either this petition is being throttled OR the British public are unaware of the dangers of this synthetic food additive OR people just can't be arsed - which is it?

Out of 69 million people UK, are you telling me we can’t get 100,000 signatures to end the mandatory fortification of white flour with synthetic folic acid? I’m in disbelief. Please Sign and share. Let’s end this madness and prove we can reach 100.000 🙏 petition.parliament.uk/petit…

100% of the population struggles to metabolism folic acid. The first enzyme it hits is DHFR and folic acid is processed 1300 times slower than the folate it evolved to process, dihydrofolate. MTHFR is secondary and effects methylation pathways.
Great explanation on folic acid for the layman youtu.be/QVQGSPw5nA0 Also I’ve added a recommended template sent to me: Powerful! Worried about synthetic folic acid added to our food ? Share this far and wide and lets have the people push back on this ‘made negative order’ (where topic not debated just rubber stamped after industry report ). [Your name or organisation] [Address] [Date]  To: The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Cc: The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care; [your MP]  Subject: Request to delay mandatory folic acid fortification pending a public review of cancer, immune and B12 evidence  Dear Secretary of State,  I ask you to delay the mandatory addition of folic acid to non-wholemeal wheat flour, due to take effect on 13 December 2026, until an updated assessment of the benefits, possible harms and alternatives has been published and examined by Parliament. Adding folic acid to flour in essence is medicating the entire population without consent.  In 2025, approximately 649,525 babies were born alive in the UK, equivalent to 0.93% of the living population of 69,487,000. The proposed addition of folic acid to flour would expose consumers across the wider population on an ongoing basis to pursue a benefit measured against that annual number of live births. We ask ministers to publish how they weighed that difference in scale, including the potential effects of long-term exposure on older people, before the requirement begins.   I recognise the benefit of adequate folic acid before conception and in early pregnancy in reducing neural tube defects.  I ask the government to compare mandatory flour fortification with a properly funded programme that helps women who may become pregnant obtain and take supplements in time. This comparison must address unplanned pregnancies: waiting until pregnancy is confirmed may be too late to prevent some neural tube defects.  Roughly 30-60% of the population has some variation of the MTHFR gene, which impairs their ability to convert synthetic folic acid into the active, usable form (L-5-MTHF). For these individuals, unconverted folic acid can build up in the bloodstream. This could represent a cancer and metabolic disease risk.  Given the present burden of cancer, I ask for a clear public account of how cancer-related research was assessed. NHS England recorded 354,820 new cancer diagnoses in England in 2023, 8,605 more than in 2022. Those figures do not show that folic acid causes cancer. They underscore the importance of examining any plausible concern before adding a further source of folic acid to widely eaten foods.  One randomised trial involving people with a previous colorectal adenoma found a higher occurrence of multiple adenomas during later follow-up among participants assigned 1 mg of folic acid daily. This dose and study population differ from the proposed flour policy. Please explain how the trial was assessed alongside the wider evidence when considering cancer risk.  I also ask you to examine the findings for postmenopausal women. In a study of 105 healthy postmenopausal women, researchers detected unmetabolised folic acid in 78% of fasting blood samples. Women with detectable unmetabolised folic acid had, on average, approximately 23% lower natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity in the laboratory test used by the researchers. NK cells help identify and destroy abnormal or infected cells. This was an observed association in one study; it did not establish that folic acid caused the difference or that the women developed cancer. It does, however, warrant an explicit assessment of immune measures and exposure in older women before the policy starts.

This is truly insidious and noxious to equal degrees.
The folic acid question is an ethical one. It is agreed that there is a risk of harm (poorly quantified). Government thinks harm is fine so long as they only cause as much harm as they claim benefit. i.e. if the two balanced out that is fine. That you can harm some to benefit others. That is wrong. On top of that the benefit is so small at a population level that harm is bound to outweigh it. Sign the petition.

"My husband, mum, sister, father and neighbours died of cancer. I have cancer in my head and a tumour in my spine.” A story that is harrowing to read but that makes it all the more important that the story gets told. How forever chemicals are destroying lives.

This was what Parliament looked like the day Folic Acid was "debated" in the House! October 2018! This image tells me ONE THING. It had ALREADY been DECIDED, so there was no need for MP's to waste their time, showing up for something that had already been agreed on! These MP's KNOW something about the folic agreement, that we do NOT! Why do they think that us, as British people, are nothing more than lab animals? What DO they know?

A family member just signed @ClareCraigPath's petition for a second time. Since she didn't get a duplicate alert email, her first signature must have been erased. Is the system dropping signatures? If they are Please keep signing and share far and wide. petition.parliament.uk/petit…
