Thank you Ndobins we've passed the 450 mark now so hopefully we will get another 50 soon. X Moyra

The campaign needs to press the point that the uk is being overcharged for T3... it is not so much cost cutting as utterly useless buying.

Hi Aspmama thank you for supporting the petition the issues of the UK being overcharged is being looked into by our MP there are several things going on behind the scenes and we hope that all this activity ends with a satisfactory result x Moyra

I see it's Cumbrian based... is anyone there looking into, or aware of the possibility that a surge in hypthyroidism in middle aged women there may link to the Windscale nuclear spill in 1957? They threw milk away, but not in a big enough radius, we now know that the winds were blowing it much further than realised, and though cancers did not result, evidence from Chernobyl shows that children and teenagers carry high levels of antibodies which could result in Hashis developing later in life.

I was a milk drinking child in Carlisle when it blew.

This was looked into but the big boys from Sellafield wanted to keep it quiet they even told our group that they would pay for us to do a study but any evidence we found could not be linked to them.as a group we decided not to take up their offer.we have done our own research and I am sure there is a link but can't prove it

in reply tomoyramm

Fascinating. Very difficult research to do of course, expensive.
