Crazy Rupert Lowe has a new angle. Ban folic acid in flour. Follows a mandate that all non-wholemeal wheat flour must be fortified with synthetic folic acid (vitamin B9) by the end of December 2026 to prevent upward of 200 neural tube birth defects including spina bifida and anencephaly each year
The official petition to end the mandatory
fortification of white flour with folic acid
has just hit 100k.


Great news.


It helps me take the fight to the
establishment in Parliament


Let's end it.

President Macron, "Brexit has cost the UK 8% of GDP.. Brexit is the biggest lie of the last 30 years" My view: Brexit was sold as a route to greater prosperity: less bureaucracy, more money, new trade opportunities Instead, Britain put new barriers between itself and its largest trading market.
