In America perhaps, as it refers to American Law. Now what about British Law?

I have already tried this in the UK with no success.
The reply said something like this.
"Water fluoridation is governed by the Water Industry Act 1991. This gave health authorities the responsibility of deciding the need locally for fluoridation, and the duty of informing the public and consulting local authorities about any proposals to fluoridate local water supplies"

Is fluoride in UK drinking water safe?
Being curious about which areas have floridated water I found this information on the British Floridation Society's website.
"Only 10% of the UK (mainly the West Midlands and North East) receives fluoridated water. Areas with very high tooth decay rates which need fluoridation include the North West, Merseyside, Yorkshire, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland and some socially deprived communities in the South (e.g. Inner London)."

Strategic Health Authority Board unanimously approves water fluoridation
On 26 February 2009 the Board of South Central Strategic Health Authority voted unanimously in favour of a proposal to fluoridate water supplies. The SHA will now formally instruct Southern Water to fluoridate supplies for Southampton and parts of South West Hampshire, and will work with the water company towards a likely 2010 start date.
The SHA’s decision - the first under the provisions of the 2003 Water Act – followed a three month public consultation requested by Southampton City PCT. The 2003 Act gave strategic health authorities the power to instruct their local water companies to fluoridate the local supplies if, after widespread public consultation, they are satisfied that the health benefits outweighed all arguments against water fluoridation.
Following the Board’s decision, Regional Director of Public Health, Professor John Newton, said

You have found a real gem. This is the part(2) that makes it very clear and it would be of particular interest to Americans who have been campaigning against the fluoridisation of their water supplies for decades
2. The use of the specified chemicals for water fluoridation is illegal under the Poisons Act
Fluorosilicates are Part 2 Poisons under the Poisons Act 1972, and have no medicinal use, as the Medicines Control Agency has repeatedly stated. Their addition to the public water supply therefore constitutes a criminal action, existing legislation on fluoridation notwithstanding. Reference to a poison in the Poisons Act includes substances containing that poison. It is consequently in violation of ss 23 and 24 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861, which forbids the administration of any poisonous or noxious substance.

About a year ago I became aware of a bad taste in the mouth and was convinced that the cause was the onset of tooth decay. A visit to the dentist revealed that there was no decay and that everything was fine which left me even more baffled. However during a recent stay in Germany that taste had completely disappeared only to return again on my arrival back home.
It just so happened that I still had German tap water left in the water bottle so a direct comparison was made between the two. The German water has that long time forgotten quality of quenching the back of the throat with that refreshing feeling whereas the English water does not. Instead it has a certain viscosity which gives the sensation that it is bypassing the back of the throat being felt more in the middle and the taste is definitely different.
There is a certain person who each year spends a month in her country of birth and while there she feels well but when she returns she complains of feeling ill again.
Given the contents of the previous posts I thought I would like to share these observations and also to point out out that Germany does not fluoridate its drinking water but instead adds it to cooking salt.
