Australia - MP sinks his teeth into fluoride issue

MP sinks his teeth into fluoride issue
24th April 2009
THE new LNP Member for Beaudesert has condemned the introduction of fluoride into south-east Queensland's water supply in his maiden speech in State Parliament on Wednesday.
Opposition MP Aidan McLindon said the Labor Government's decision was “ill-educated”.
“I never recall my mother telling me to swallow my toothpaste after I brushed my teeth,” he said.
“Maybe there is another poison out there we can add to the water that prevents obesity.”
