Just yesterday, we had another scare about dioxins, which are allegedly produced by bonfires (only if you throw plastics into them). So might we expect barbies to be targeted next?<br /><br />I might add, that my next barbie will be fuelled by a goodly amount of household waste. <br /><br />This nannying came into being via the NHS. We can be bullied into submission by being told that our 'selfishness' negatively affects others. They own our bodies, evidently. Do you recall Brown's attempt at making us unwitting organ donors if we did not explicitly opt out of the scheme?<br /><br />The truth is, we'd all be healthier if we were able to purchase fresh, organic produce from our farmers, rather than the nutrient-free, toxic cr*p (replete with GM abominations, pesticides, growth hormones and antibiotics) we're forced to buy from Tesco, because it has driven local producers out of business. Lack of nutrients in food means it's more difficult for our bodies to recover from the vagaries of modern living. <br /><br />But will government take heed of that? No, because big agribusiness likes the status quo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-70332511590160325402010-04-20T12:55:14.048+01:002010-04-20T12:55:14.048+01:00I've been practicing empty, futile gestures fo...I've been practicing empty, futile gestures for some time now.<br /><br />For example I always add a little salt to my salted peanuts just in case the nazis have intimidated the peanut suppliers into cutting salt levels.
