    Finally a council has had the backbone to tell MoH to fark off with
    their fluoridisation order. Whangarei council votes 7-5 against with
    1 abstention -- why RNZ reports this vote as 7-6 beats me, unless it's
    just typical media lying.

    Bloomfield issued the fluoridisation order on his departure day, using authority newly granted by Labour's 2021 new law. How cowardly is
    that, to issue an indefensible order, then quit? Arbitrary
    authoritarianism all around. Who voted for Labour in 2020? Not me.

    RFK Jr will deliver a cudgel to fluorisation in the USA, come Trump's inauguration on 20th January. Here in NZ, we need our wimpy councils
    to develop a backbone and do the same. Stop poisoning our water.
    Stop poisoning our people. Make NZ healthy again.
