If healthier food was as “ cheap as chips “ people might be encouraged to buy it . A lot of people would choose strawberries or various berries in general but they’re far more expensive than chocolate, cake and biscuits.

Descending into nanny-statism at quite the pace.

its hard work..

no supermarket i go i has ANY healthy food,,the so called healthy stuff often replaces fat and sugar with chemicals..organic is good but the world cant be fed on organic food not enough capacity..

I understand the plan and I do believe in a extremely healthy diet but you can't force people to not eat certain foods. Obesity is a crisis and I am always helping people lose weight. Boris needs to always lose weight himself before unveiling a obesity plan!

When did Michael Bloomberg become PM of the UK?

Ah a dictatorship..... they don't usually end well

Hope Boris is going to practice what he preaches.

Hope he’s going to take note himself.

Restrictions on oxygen levels now food in take.......

Where does his booze consumption fit in

I’d rather you ban illegals , deport foreign criminals and help OAPS and veterans rather than play nanny to grown ups who now wear nappies on their faces ! BorisJohnson Conservatives DVATW darcybbc

Bore off boris, we each have our own minds, if we want a chocolate bar we know it should be a treat only and moving it wont do anything

onyourbikeboris 😜

Oh fuck off we don’t need babysitting sortyourownshitout

So is he going to ban the sale of 7 spoons of sugar cans of Coke

BLOODY DICTATOR

Wondering how much ur PT costs... if ur paying yes please id take one

What do the exercise tablets do?

We’re not telling him what he can or can’t do so don’t tell us what we can or can’t do in our own time

Who's gonna buy me the bike?

Why is everything been done a tad to late with this country!!!!!!!

So which of his ministers have hands in the WW pie? All this is not going to come cheap for any of us & a lot of people don’t have the time, energy or inclination to exercise after 10/12+hr days slogging away to earn enough just to survive

More referrals to weight watchers? My GP referred me a few years ago. (Ignoring that the people at the meeting were horrible and excluded you from group activities if you lost more weight than them). My shopping bill increased by £300 a month when on weight watchers.

Whisper to your friend in W.H whats his real problem and it cant be solved with just Golf!Because it seems you two have miles to go together.If he does these exercises in the camera,he will win vote of Doctor,nurse & paramedic!Time he needs more of spirit,good health than fluff.

So its OK to be a fatty monster if its caused by expensive cheeses and meats. If you can afford to be fat then you're more then welcome I guess

The point is freshfoods need to be cheaper as junk food is so cheap and easy justsaying

Or the government could just leave people alone and let them live, and eat, as they see fit. But hey, I'm just an American, none of my business I suppose.
