Jamie Oliver says Boris Johnson 'seems to be the one' that has a plan for tackling obesity as he welcomes proposals to ban junk food adverts on TV and online before 9pm. Read more:

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".

"The fact is, you don't get overweight overnight from eating too much on one day, you become overweight from eating a bit extra for many many days over a period of time so eating a bit less over time is what's needed in order to lose weight." She said it"could not come at a worse time" and described"rafts of costs and regulatory burdens" as a"slap in the face".

Does this man always talk shite? I came from an ordinary background, not a rich one but not a poor one either. There was never any junk food on our table, always balanced home cooked meals made every day. Junk is an option, just like any other food, just choose something healthy.

About time obesity was tackled head on. No help to anyone to keep being too pc and flouncing around with excuses. Well done jamieoliver BorisJohnson

What a prat, anyone who believes a single word out of Johnson’s mouth needs to have a long hard look at his track record. It’s just sound bites without substance

He’s hardly slim and look at his recipes most celebrity chefs recipes are a nightmare perhaps obesity has been fuelled by bake off etc full of sugar salt cream etc

People need to know how to cook from scratch . Many don’t have those skills .

Is he still here? Just asking as he was very vocal in stating that if the result of the referendum was to leave, he and he family would be leaving the country. Or is he just one of these egotistical airheads, loves jumping on bandwagons and virtue signalling, but no action

Last time I went to Jamie’s Italia in Birmingham. He was charging £1.50 for a scoop of ice cream and £3 for a bowl of fruit. It’s still the same at Gatwick airport. Jamie part of the problem

If they really think this is going to stop people going on Just East Food hub etc they are deluded and out of touch.Uber eats delivered Mcdonalds last night.Responsibility is with parents to cook and police treats.

What's a Jamie Oliver and why is his tongue obese?

Jamie Oliver never was that bright! Johnson has an idea, a whim. It doesn’t come anywhere close to a plan. Pretty much like everything else he does.

This approach seems to suggest that there is a correlation between the presence and sales of fast foods with the occurrence of obesity. Aren’t we likely to have cases of genetic obesity

Whatever it takes to get rid of obesity is welcomed but tax on the companies must be looked into

Britain is a joke now!!!! We in Afrika are having a good laugh! Your NHS ? 😂

Nope, don't like Jamie Oliver🐍 after all those people lost jobs from closing all his restaurants ....Than he goes and buys a huge mansion....Nope.. Gave all his cookbooks to Goodwill....🤨

Oh dear, somebody felt neglected and needs a bit of attention....

He will be promoting Bill Gates fake meat soon.

I wonder how many people lost weight with anguish and worry when your restaurant empire went bust and you left your loyal staff without jobs, suppliers and creditors unpaid. You lost the right to preach about ANYTHING you charlatan.

This guy killed irn bru

Here's a bloke who'll take any opportunity he can to hear the sound of his own voice. Food's answer to Olly Murs. Crap, but just won't seem to go away.

Idiocrasy

I’d say PlayStation and Xbox are more responsible for child obesity.

Let me guess fat jamieoliver next venture is a healthy lifestyle choice cafe.

All this will do is make it harder for the people on minimum wage which is half the country.

I'll eat whatever I want thank you 😁

Is that the same guy whose places went bust well before Covid causing misery for his staff

Jamie don't be a dick. You're only backing him because he's manipulated you and abusing your idea. You've sold your soul!

He brushes his hair with toffee apple then eats it
