DARLINGTON Council is being pressured to pay for the chemical fluoride to be put into our water supply (Echo, Apr 17).

The potential side effects are horrific. Fluoride-pushers don’t want to know about side effects. If they don’t look, they won’t have to see them. But they are there.

Especially as more than half the fluoride consumed stays in the body and accumulates over years, damaging cells of brain and bodily tissue. Don’t be fooled. Contact your councillor today to say you don’t want to be forced to consume toxic fluoride in your water supply.
