TV chef Jamie Oliver, who has campaigned on childhood obesity for 20 years, said the PM's plans were a"huge step in the right direction".
But he said the"devil will be in the detail" and issued a reminder about the government's commitment to halving childhood obesity by 2030. Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UK Hospitality, which represents the industry, criticised the timing of enforcing extra calorie labelling costs on restaurants and pubs while they battle the challenges posed by COVID-19.
Two-thirds of UK adults are above a healthy weight, with 36% overweight and 28% obese, according to government data.
So he wants us to reduce weight and stop buy one get one free on meals, yet we’re about to have a month of eat out, help out, half price food 🤔
Clearly Boris Johnson wife is not turned on by his looks , or like him as a nice guy , it's his wealth and bank balance .
DEFLECTION
How about making the streets safe to exercise in, stop selling off school playing fields, stop making public exercise facilities more and more expensive to use and make roads safe to cycle on. Bogof is normally on cheap food not sweets people eat it because its in budget.
I'll eat what I like, when I like, thanks. 🖕
Why should I pay more because of idiots
Obesity if not heretical it's all about eating and how much you eat with satisfied mind gym is not must but learn to do daily choruses for yourself with little walks for physical fitness
We have a pandemic to deal with first, why always try to distract attention from the main issues and government incompetence!
It feels a lot like this is the *only* pet policy that Cummings is allowing the PM to have...
I don't think Aldi or Lidl do such deals so I guess they won't have to make any changes.
He needs to research more because it is not solely sweets that cause obesity.
Can he not because I enjoy those deals and am underweight not over. People can make their own decisions, we do not need a nanny state!
He needs to get to the root cause of why someone is struggling with weight. The person might have been abused they might have other problems. Putting a sticking plaster over a person's mental health will not make them healthy.
There are calories on all food, fat, sugar. Etc.He needs to get the root cause of why people over eat don't exercise. More money spent on mental health access to all who need to see a mental health experts the waiting list to see someone is months.
If they were bothered they would make obesity in illegal
Why is he not helping people with mental health.
Boris running the most left wing government of my life time. And doing it terribly too.
Vote tory, get Labour
How does the government not realise that targeting the supermarket to stop obesity is the wrong point it’s too late then. Should be targeting the education system to better educate our youth on the best ways to fuel their body and why they should fuel their body better
Both of which have been addressed
Fat boy running away from his responsibilities
How about he targets getting our reported infection rates under control and gets a better grip on data accuracy and information, as this, along with the lack of confidence in Track n trace (Or rather lack of ANY real clarity around it) would be more useful😒
And another ineffective Johnson gimmick is on the way....... These measures have already been carried out by the industry voluntarily. He ha NO idea.
FINALLY he's starting to deal with the real issues in the country! No more worrying about this virus or coronabollocks. Let's get our cheap-ass sugar intake lowered!
Im beginning to think he’s lost the plot...
Can he start by losing weight? Not being funny but he has got quite a few lb to lose!! 😂
it is not only sugars but also heavy metals ..... parasites....... plastics........ bugs.......... etc...........obesity is just one symptom of many causes and running or going to the gym won't sort it out.......
Why does the nanny state want to punish others just because fatties have no decency or self control?
He needs to be careful running cause a earthquake
How long before this idiot PM bans ALL food?
Looks like he has been shoplifting sweets and is being chased by security.
What next !!
Checkout Sweets have been removed by most supermarkets already. Not that elite politicians would notice.
If he nearly died of coronavirus I'm Abe Lincon...
Now going to starve the poorest in society who rely on bogof deals to.feed the family. Tory mass murdering continues
Why don’t you leave people the fuck alone ...they don’t need you making decisions for us
The more you can breathe the more calories you burn.
Sweets what about illegal immigrants first
So all because some people are fat greedy pigs it fucks it for everyone else.
Buy one get one free. They never do them with bottles of Scotch.😜
Pish he is aff the wagon or his missus will leave him and she disnae want to sleep with a frying pan~
Que,stain from a Scot, that has free prescriptions, but if you pay the prescription chmarge do you get the bike Lycra and safety gear?
Maybe that's why the psycho is planning to Muzzle all school kids.
That'll sort it then. :-/
He needs to try and sort the country out first or has he realised that is to difficult for him so he will battle with sweets and make sure everyone gets a bike!!
I doubt this nanny state approach will work. This country has become one thanks to covid
I bet he does
Bravo at least he creat image for us to follow smart genetic information
Looking at the state of that must make all fat people want to lose the weight for sure.
Does he mean wives or children? 🤷♂️
Put all the bad stuff at the back of the supermarkets and shops only do buy one get one free to get rid of stock or stock coming upto sell by date
He thinks because he's on a diet the rest of us should be, he's a tosser.
Nanny state. Embarrassing that people can’t make the right decisions for their own health in the first place.
Sweets are not his obesity problem ! It’s his alcohol intake !
And all that food coming from America won’t have any of that nasty sugar or other quirky chemicals in it.......
No need the 14 % wto tariffs will do that
Fair play he's fkn useless and I voted for him.
Bojo is nothing safe u lot at downing street just leave things alone god sake what's wrong with u like pissing public off u getva bloody kick outta it
He's working on some backdoor tax? Tell him to check the increase in US obesity after our annoying calorie labels. Nasty getting rid of buy one/get one deals.
