UK - Southampton Daily Echo letter

Cllr Harrison sees the light
IT would appear that Councillor David Harrison is at last beginning to see the light where our freedom is concerned in this country.
The issue of Dibden Bay was cut and dried some years ago but it has raised its ugly head once more because it wasn't the correct result where the powers that be were concerned.
And now, his letter (Echo, August 5) on the subject of the unelected quango, the Strategic Health Authority, which has decided that fluoride should be added to our drinking water.
Citizens should bear in mind that Southern Water is now a private company, so in reality any
Government or official body has no say in the product it chooses to sell to customers so long as it is a pure, harmless product.
In the same Echo issue a certain Lordswood resident said they would not be paying their water bill if fluoride is added (I said the same some months ago) so if everyone sticks together on this important issue it would seem the only way we can win the day.
David Harrison asks 'Do we live in a democracy or not?' - the simple answer is 'No, we do not'.
In fact we lost that back in 1975 when Edward Heath signed our Sovereign rights away to the 'Common (Slave) Market'.
L A O'BEE, Southampton.
