Calls for Coca-Cola lorry to be banned from Liverpool over 'obesity epidemic'

Nice idea :thumbsup
And sugary drinks should be taxed like hell :2 cents:

Ps: fellow British people, which of the telegraph.co.uk and independant.co.uk is more libby? I had both links and wondered which one to give a backlink to :winkwink:

I add extra sugar to my fizzy drinks to make sure they are extra sweet :)

Sounds like an opportunity for underground cola trade.

Ban Mac Donald's too!

And what is your height/weight? :winkwink:

Big corporations are allowed to slowly poison people. Too much salt, sugar, etc. They never pick up the bill for the damage they do.

:2 cents::2 cents:

Weight is just north of 600 lbs and my height is about 2 feet.

Thats the height of the bed I lay in, (Shitting myself) unable to get up...

Nah, seriously. I saw your picture that you posted, you are not 600 pounds.

lol at 2 feet tall

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh ...

Won't be long before the shitty Coca-cola Christmas commercials will be on our tv screens...

Telegraph is the most conservative paper there is in the UK. Behind a paywall though.

Independent, liberal, owned by Russians I think.

just drink healthy drinks god damn it...water is the best

but it's still delicious ... :)

Point is moot anyway as I dont live in Liverpool nor do I have any desire to go and visit a lorry... :2 cents:

I thought you were all about personal responsibility. This sounds very liberal of you next you.

Not really so. It is not personal responsibility because other people/society will be paying medical costs.
If you are irresponsible and fat - other responsible people will share your medical bills basically (not directly).
It is not isolated incident - every society member suffers from higher total medical bills.

So basically it aligns exactly with my anti leftist views (rip off highest earners and "redistribute" to lazies). In this case rip off those who take care of their health to pay those who deliberately do not take care of it.

As for liberal, when I did the political leanings test posted by mark prince, I came out +- in the center, very slightly to the right. Meaning on some issues I was on the right, on some on the left, on some in the middle.
