Video: BBC Censorship of Fluoridation: A Clear Cut Case

 

At this press conference, Professors Paul Connett, PhD and Vyvyan Howard, MB. ChB. PhD. FRCPath, along with Ellen Connett and former BBC journalist Michele Paduano, will reveal the details of the BBC’s unprofessional efforts to withhold important information about the new science on the potential dangers posed by community water fluoridation. Fluoridation is the flawed and outdated practice of adding a fluoridated chemical to the public drinking water, ostensibly to lower tooth decay. The new science hidden from the public by the BBC The details on the science of fluoride’s threat to the developing brain with a subsequent loss of intelligence will be provided by Connett and Howard, who between them have spent many years following and researching the studies on fluoride’s impact on the developing brain. The importance of this story Currently, about 6.6 million people in England drink fluoridated water (which started in 1966) and the government is proposing to fluoridate more communities. UK citizens should know the potential dangers involved with a practice of such limited benefits. They need to be fully informed so that they can make wise decisions about their children’s future. With the BBC receiving massive funding from the government many have worried that this service would become a tool of government policies. This appears to have happened in the case of the BBC’s poor -even censored- coverage of the dangers posed by the UK government’s water fluoridation program. In short, the BBC is not protecting the public when it does not present the full facts to them. The BBC needs to pay greater respect to solid science; be wary of deferring to “authorities” which have an agenda in the issue at hand and must place a greater trust in the intelligence of the British public when it comes to threats posed to their children’s health. Information on the above claims and history, can be found in a recently published book, “Fluoride Harm: Suppressed Science and Silenced Voices,” Dr. Hardy Limeback and Karen Spencer (Ed), Heron Lodge Press, McKellar, Canada, 2025. This includes two essays by Connett and Howard and a third by former BBC reporter Michele Paduano.
