Florence Bark, five, desperately needs your help. Her family are trying to raise £500k for life-saving treatment for her leukemia. Please share if you can #corby https://t.co/jOHKe9wiLM
@ABridgen Spent 20 mins in Tesco earlier checking ingredients on bread as I have to avoid folic acid due to medical reasons. All wholemeal, seeded, and sourdough ALL had folic acid, not a single loaf without, so I didn’t get any bread.
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.
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.

Hubby wanted some oven chips yesterday. I never eat them, but went to Waitrose to get him some.
It’s a potato pre-cooked in fat…I thought. That’s it 🤔🤷🏻♀️
Not according to McCain’s it’s not!!
Need some folic acid with that !!
@ClareCraigPath
Ended up buying Waitrose Essential chips - just a potato and some oil 🤦🏻♀️

SEVERE CONSEQUENCES of a so-called vaccine that protects neither against the disease, nor its transmission, nor severe forms!
" I was insulted, called a dangerous conspiracy theorist, I lost friends for saying that, for any medication, there are side effects, for loudly proclaiming that a so-called vaccine, which kills more than the disease, has no reason to be used, nor made mandatory.
I lost my job as a surgeon because of it! "

Finnish scientists trucked in real forest dirt and grass and laid it over the gravel at four daycare yards. They let the kids dig around in it for a month. The blood tests came back with changes the researchers hadn’t expected to see so fast or so clear.
The study ran at ten daycares in two Finnish cities with 75 kids aged three to five. Four of the yards got the forest treatment: about a tennis court worth of soil and grass laid over the gravel, plus planters and peat blocks the kids could dig and climb on. Three others stuck with their normal gravel yards. The last three were daycares where the kids were already visiting real forests every day.
After one month, the variety of bacteria living on the kids’ skin shot up, and the kind that helps train the skin’s immune defenses jumped the most. Their gut bacteria started to look like the gut bacteria of the forest-visiting kids. Their blood showed more of the immune cells whose job is to keep the body from freaking out at harmless stuff like pollen and peanuts, and overall inflammation dropped. The kids on the plain gravel yards showed none of this.
Childhood asthma in the US doubled between 1980 and 1995. Food allergies in kids jumped 50 percent between 1997 and 2011, then jumped another 50 percent between 2007 and 2021. And peanut allergies in one-year-olds tripled between 2001 and 2017.
The Finnish researchers think one of the reasons is simple: kids today don’t get dirty enough. 37 percent of American preschoolers now spend an hour or less outside on a normal weekday. Their immune systems are getting trained in environments stripped of the bacteria humans have always lived around.
Aki Sinkkonen, who led the study, put it in plain words: “It would be best if children could play in puddles and everyone could dig organic soil.” The Finnish government is now helping pay for daycares across the country to make the same changes.
This is happening in A&E at the hospital.
How many man-hours and woman-hours are lost every day at work due to employees scrolling?
Shouldn’t mobile phones be banned in the workplace like they are in schools?
?
@Ferng6Ferng@gunhilljen13@TraceyOMahony81 My sons school is saying it is compulsory and that we cannot remove him from the subject. He’s only in year 2. The govt website says that the school is incorrect and that we can remove him?? Any advice?
This is brilliant and we struggle so so much in our household with this.. I genuinely believe we need to have serious restrictions on phones for children 18yrs and under.. It's really really worrying and what Robbie is saying I couldn't agree with more.
🚨 Angela Rayner has given councils permission to sell off allotments to raise money.
8 sell offs of ancient rights have happened so far, including to build houses.
The history of allotments goes back to the 1500s and is tied deeply to land access, food security, and social reform, it’s an ancient right. It’s the bedrock of the right to grow your own food on shared land.
But Labour doesn’t care about citizens’ rights…. Not even our ancient ones 🔥
