I went to Parliament on Wednesday June 10th for an Amendment debate given by Jessica Morden from Newport South on organophosphates. This was instigated by a constituent that had been affected by the age of 17 having sheep-dipped.
I was working on our farm in South Wales and dipping sheep and I believe that the sheep dip was instrumental in the M S I now suffer from, I was a teacher and a dancer and my ability for balance and my cognitive ability have been effected. A friend asked if doctors have any medical evidence for this, but I believe all over the country there is evidence by sheer numbers that there is. I feel that the warnings given by the manufacturers were not adequate.
The reason governments or pharmaceuticals won't admit to this there would be many writs for compensation. I just want someone to say that organophosphates have caused untold damage.
