Well make the break then! She'll be hurt, but sometimes you have to do what's best for you. Originally Posted by Lord Shrek

Obese people should be made to change their diet. They are a constant sponge on the NHS and a waste of my taxpayers money. If they can't mend their fat ways then its off to a big island where they have to stay till they get slim. Could be televised too especially when the food crates of soup got dropped and watch those lard ***** windmill each other for a can of heinz

Fat bar stwards should be given 'advice' by the NHS. Like exercise and eat healthily and *LESS* but shouldn't get classes paid for by the rest of us. All they exhibit is lack of will power and I don't see why I should pay for that!Originally Posted by sarasquares

Or, if I do, I can show lack of will power in not being able to pass a Porsche showroom without buying a brand new Gt3 .. will the NHS pay for that????

Quite right Dave, tell them all the advice and how it will affect their lifespan etc, but its not right to pay for the activities. There are far more important priorities than that. Yet another stupid attempt at a groundbreaking initiative!

You can't pick on fatties just because it's visible if you aren't going to do something about the alcoholics and smokers too - both also a huge drain on the NHS. Ridiculous, superfluous and gimmicky policy making at its worst.

But, what if it worked?
What if fatty and co. actually became healthier by getting a kickstart care of our taxes. If ten of them went along and one of them made a go of it, the process would still make economical sense.
Should smokers get patches on the NHS? Drinkers get 'support'? Smackheads get methadone? All of things are designed to save the NHS cash in the long-term. My philsophy on this ignores the principle and focuses on the outcome. Trial it and if it doesn't work scrap it.

They are doing something about smokers. Here in Wales, we can't smoke in public from April and England will be July.
So if its unfair to treat fat people and smokers differently then by this time next year the streets will be alot thinner.
Supposedly, the income the government makes on *** duty outways the NHS cost to treat smoking related illness. Maybe a study could be carried out to see if its the same for the extra food fat people consume and thier NHS cost.
