Winning Questions
1490 votes Will you hold a referendum in conjunction with the next Queensland state election to allow the people to decide if they want Fluoride in their water? The American Dental Association warns mothers not to make up infant formula with fluoridated water and there are now 25 studies showing that Fluoride lowers IQ. Fluoride and the silicon delivered with it are threats to human health in numerous ways. Over 2.5 million people have turned off fluoride in their communities in just the last year. See www.fluoridealert.org. - Geoff Pain 827 votes Why will you not hold a referendum to allow the citizens of QLD their chance to decide if we should introduce Daylight savings or not? There is a majority of people within the southeast who find it incredibly frustrating this time of year when dealing with southern states who are 1 hour ahead of us. All I'm asking for is the chance to take this to the vote, if it looses then fair enough but let us decide please.. - Paul Smart 644 votes Last year, a state government report concluded that “the quality of Queensland's solar resource is comparable to the world's best solar resources.” Rather than build gas plants and expand the contentious Coal Seam Gas industry, what concrete steps will your government take to build baseload concentrating solar thermal power plants with molten salt storage? . - Emma CartonMore about this

WITH RESPECT......WE DO NOT REQUIRE A REFERENDUM.... WE REQUIRE A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION AND TRIAL INTO ALL THOSE COMPLICIT IN POISONING THE PEOPLE OF QUEENSLAND.... THOSE WHO HAVE LIED....COMMITTED FRAUD.... IT IS TIME THEY WERE BOUGHT TO ACCOUNT FOR THEIR CRIMES..... SEE EVIDENCE OF FRAUD.... READ SCIENTIFIC MATERIAL DATA MATERIAL ( Sodium Fluoride and its effects on our body organs. Please note, that Sodium Fluoride is cumulative. It is an Enzyme Inhibitor that also causes Fetal Deaths, Bone Cancer in Boys and Infertility.) READ THIS ARTICLE BY PROFESSOR PAUL CONNETT WHO EXPOSES THE FRAUD.... - Australian Fluoridation Fraud - Joining the Dots - Paul Connett www.fluoridealert.org November 10, 2008 I would like to draw your attention to four events in Australia which I believe demonstrate the corruption of science needed to propagate the discredited practice of water fluoridation in that country. Just join the dots. Here are the four events: A letter from Pieta-Ray Laut, Executive Director, Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) to Professor Warwick Anderson, Chief Executive Officer, National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), dated 20 February 2007. Note the NHMRC is an agency of the Australian government. See letter at end. The publication of the NHMRC report in November 2007: A Systematic Review of the Efficacy and Safety of Fluoridation. An article attacking opponents of fluoridation by Jason Armfield in the online journal Australia and New Zealand Health Policy, December, 2007, titled: When public action undermines public health: a critical examination of antifluoridationist literature – and my response to it at this same site. The forcing through of mandatory water fluoridation on Queensland in February 2008 by Premier Anna Bligh. This of course, can be coupled with other ongoing efforts to force fluoridation on communities in NSW and Victoria, without giving them a chance to vote on the matter. Elsewhere I have commented at some length on the "Easleyan" hatchet job on people opposed to fluoridation by Jason Armfield, and readers know well of our fruitless efforts to try to inform Premier Bligh on the dangers and ineffectiveness of fluoridation before she forced the practice on Queensland. Here I will focus on the NHMRC (2007) review an the PHAA letter. The NHMRC (2007) report. This report is being cited around the fluoridating world as the final word on the "safety and effectiveness" of water fluoridation. However, as far as addressing health concerns, a careful reading of this report indicates that at best, it is a work of professional incompetence or, at worst, an example of scientific fraud, in which scientific information is manipulated to support a preordained conclusion. There are six fundamental problems with this report. Read full report. http://australianfluorideaction.com/lies-fraud/the-fraud/ -
Yes it's time to bring all those poor excuses of human beings to account for their mass betrayal of the Queensland people, by keeping Big Pharma raking in billions, courtesy of mass new diagnoses annually of terminal and chronic illnesses via mass fluoridation.This is a Conspiracy to cull the population and it reaches the highest levels of our society. MP Rob Messenger Qld Independent Member for Burnett wants fluoridation banned. He gets my vote!
Anna Bligh says in in her video: "I have to govern for everybody in Queensland". Why then is she not listening to the overwhelming number of voices who are saying "NO" to water fluoridation?
Why have you added a toxic chemical from the Phosphate Fertilizer Industry in drinking water? (Fluoride!)
I think it's time to switch to renewable energy - 100% Renewable Energy for Australia! Do you honestly believe that fossil fuels is a long-term solution for powering Australia?
Anna Bligh, All councils in Australia are directed by the United Nations ? which have always been a Communist Organisation. How can you make a decision on the subject of Flouride when you are under their control ??
Although genetics probably has quite a bit to do with dental health, I wish there had been flouride in the water when I was growing up in the 1960's - my teeth may not have been such a disaster now ! And I'd rather go by what the scientists say than the crazed ravings of communist conspiracy loonies ! - that's straight out of 'Dr Strangelove' !
Dear Ian Buckland, given you would believe what scientists are saying, perhaps you would also believe the reason why over 3,000 Professionals have called for an End to Water Fluoridation which can be reviewed here; http://www.fluoridealert.org/professionals-statement.html. If you wont believe what these and MANY MANY scientists have found that being Fluoride has long term adverse side effects including neurological impacts, then you may as well put your head back in the sand like an ostrich hiding from the truth. i was born in 1959 and had no fluoridation in my water supply yet my amount of fillings is less than many people in Townsville who have had fluoride in their water supply for years. i wont even allow my breeding dogs to drink the fluoridated water because as soon as it was fluoridated here in QLD we started getting deformed pups for the first time in over 30 years of breeding. Since giving our dogs RO water we have had no more deformities, so go figure!!!! All I can say is if you are going to make comments at least research the KNOW and DOCUMENTED scientifically established facts that Fluoride even at the dose rate we have here in QLD will cause irreversible health problems. Just watch the statisitics on osteoporsis increase dramatically % wise over the next decade or more. The reason it will rise is because fluoride leaches calcium from the bones, thats why dental fluorosis is such a problem in countires that have had toxic S6 poison injected into their water systems for years (yes Fluoride is an S6 cumulative poison)
Anna Bligh knows the adverse side effects (scientifically documented) because she was handed a lot of the irrefutable scientific evidence before she finally introduced the S6 poison into all QLD water supplies. Dont know what her agenda is but to introduce a poison when she knew its consequences is criminal. perhaps she has shares in the company that the QLD Govt buys the fluoride off or perhaps she has a cushy job lined up with that company after her demise in politics. Who knows but it makes no sense to deliberately introduce one of the most toxic compounds known to man into any water supply. Want proof of how toxic, just google the MSDS for Sodium Fluoride .
What a BS-Rhetoric answer who are these scientists-Sound like public fools to me, with large bank accounts to, pay for say-!! Just like the Carbon tax SCAM- Blah Blah Blah. Get a real job and produce something! That little man in you head is growing bigger. WAKE UP. !!
