The UK's new folic acid law kicks in on 13 December 2026. From that date, all non wholemeal wheat flour, white and brown, must be fortified with folic acid.

The aim is to prevent around 200 cases of neural tube defects like spina bifida every year.

Here's the catch: wheat flour is in far more than bread. It shows up in pasta, pizza, crackers, biscuits, cakes, pastries, pies, breakfast cereals, and most flour based batters, fish fingers, chicken nuggets, scampi, onion rings, tempura. It's also used as a thickener in soy sauce, gravy granules, stock cubes, soups and sauces. Malt vinegar and malt extract can be wheat derived too.

Because so many of these foods are eaten together every day, the folic acid adds up across the whole diet, not just from one slice of bread.

Let's look at a typical day for a child. They have cereal for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch, then pasta for tea or a pizza. That is cumulative to a high degree.

Why some people may want to avoid it. Folic acid isn't risk free for everyone. The main medical concern is vitamin B12 deficiency, including pernicious anaemia.

Folic acid can correct the anaemia on blood tests while the nerve damage continues, that can lead to permanent spinal cord damage called subacute combined degeneration.

Official guidance says it should never be taken alone in these cases. It's also contraindicated in most cancers, because some tumours are folate dependent and extra folic acid may fuel them.

People on methotrexate, used for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and some cancers, should be careful, as folic acid can reduce how well it works. And epilepsy medicines like phenytoin, phenobarbital and primidone can have their levels lowered by folic acid, risking more seizures.

Wholemeal flour is exempt, as are non wheat flours like rice, maize, rye, oat and buckwheat, and small scale mills producing under 500 tonnes a year. But even though wholemeal is exempt, people checking packaging are already finding folic acid listed on wholemeal flour and wholemeal bread.

That is because many products mix in some non wholemeal flour, or manufacturers are fortifying voluntarily. The supposed safe option is not always safe.

We need to stop this altogether.

Sign the petition to end the mandatory fortification of white flour with folic acid immediately It closes on 8 December 2026 and needs 100,000 signatures for a debate in Parliament.

If you have already signed please share with family and friends to make them aware.

Its in the comments 🇬🇧

The fact that the MSM are not investigating and reporting the health concerns over a Government mandate to put a drug ( synthetic Folic acid) in flour should tell you all you need to know. Please sign the petition.

[The Light Paper @TheLightPaperUK]

Is everyone aware of folic acid, what it is, and why it’s being mandated into wheat flour?

If not, this very short article explains the basics in a nutshell.

If you haven’t already signed the public petition to stop synthetic Folic Acid being added to flour in the UK , I hope you will when you see below who is behind it !

Yes it’s good old uncle Bill Gates and his mates at the WHO.

Please sign the petition
Your life may depend on it.

Thanks to Dick Delingpole for highlighting this.

I enjoyed being part of a 90 minute chat about PEM in #LongCOVID and #ME/CFS with @loscharlos, @jencurtinmd, @LBatemanMD. What a treat. TLDR/L: Hold fast, help is coming faster than ever before. But also plz listen because there are recommendations for folks with PEM 🙏🏻

Adding folic acid to the food supply is mass medication of the entire population without consent.

To replace global fossil fuel consumption with solar would take 274 billion panels.

The energy to mine, manufacture and install those panels translates to 96 billion barrels of oil, 374 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 23 billion tons of coal.

Then there's the fact that solar panels last only 15 to 20 years before needing replacing, meaning the cycle of mining, smelting and building repeats every generation.

Even if 274 billion panels were built and installed, solar doesn't deliver 24-7 power. Massive backup systems, batteries, gas plants or other infrastructure would still be required, demanding billions more tons of material.

You can't mine and manufacture your way out of the second law of thermodynamics.

Solar is not a one-time build. It's an industrial treadmill: endless mining, endless rebuilding, endless waste -- all to chase an illusion of replacing the dense, affordable and reliable energy we already have.

Farage on #BBCBreakfast: “If Andy Burnham becomes PM we need a General Election, no mandate!”

Sally Nugent: “Do your MPs who defected from the Tories have a mandate?”

Watch the chancer’s face as his own logic gets rammed straight back down his throat. Pure gold.

This is the exact line every interviewer should use on him from now on.😂😂😂

1960s - “Oil will run out in 10 years.”
1970s - “A new Ice Age is coming in 10 years.”
1980s - “Acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years.”
1990s - “The ozone layer will disappear in 10 years.”
2000s - “The Arctic ice caps will be gone in 10 years.”
2010s - “Global warming will cause irreversible damage in 10 years unless we act now.”

NONE of it happened, but every single prediction led to one thing: HIGHER TAXES.

🇬🇧 UK MET OFFICE CAUGHT USING TEMPERATURE DATA FROM STATIONS THAT DON'T EXIST TO SUPPORT CLIMATE POLICIES

Britain's Met Office is facing awkward questions after an investigator discovered over 80% of its temperature monitoring sites are classified as "junk" with measurement uncertainties of 2°C to 5°C.

That's not a typo – 5 degrees Celsius of potential error.

Only 19 pristine Class 1 sites remain capable of measuring actual ambient air temperature accurately.

The rest? Located on airport runways, walled gardens, next to main roads, and inside solar farms.

Places where concrete, engines, and infrastructure create artificial heat islands that have nothing to do with atmospheric temperature changes.

The Met Office database also contains data from over 100 stations that don't exist.

They're using "estimated" temperatures from unidentified neighboring stations and presenting it as real data.

When journalist Ray Sanders started asking questions through Freedom of Information requests, the Met Office dismissed them as "vexatious" and "not in the public interest."

After media inquiries, the Met Office quietly removed estimated data from 3 non-existent stations.

Of 17 new sites opened since April 2024, nearly 65% were immediately placed in the worst quality categories.

UK Science Minister Lord Patrick Vallance is calling scrutiny of this mess "misinformation" that weakens trust in science.

Perhaps what actually weakens trust in science is using temperature readings from imaginary thermometers next to jet engines to justify trillion-pound Net Zero policies that reshape the entire economy.

The data might be fine for tomorrow's weather forecast.

Using it to revolutionize Britain's energy infrastructure? That requires stations that actually exist.

Wind turbines depend entirely on coal. Seventy percent of steel is made from iron ore using coal. One megawatt of wind turbine capacity requires 220 tonnes of coal, which equals 220 small cars. Every wind turbine on earth must be completely replaced & rebuilt after 17-20 years.
