I DO not support UCG in the Dee Estuary, however, I am concerned about the misleading and quite frankly terrifying health claims made by a Labour leaflet I received this week.
There appears to be no evidence base for the claims of an association of the process with leukaemia, and therefore it is irresponsible and unethical to mislead Wirral residents in this way.
I have contacted the authors on a number of occasions to provide references to support their assertions, but they have failed to do so.
Their motives are clear but they should not be allowed to scare and mislead the public into voting for them.
Dr Alexander Silvester, West Kirby.
