Obesity has a simple cause: the food industry is poisoning us https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/11/17/obesity-has-a-simple-cause-the-food-industry-is-poisoning-us/ A House of Lords report has made clear that obesity in the UK, and all the many diseases that flow from it, has one cause - and that is the dire food that food industry now supplies, that is poisoning us all. There is no pill that solves this problem, whatever Wes Streeting might say. Only radical reform of food regulation can solve this crisis - and save the economy.

The CBI is saying that the situation with regard to the UK stock exchange is getting desperate, because it is losing out to overseas markets and not attracting sufficient business. The question that needs to be asked is, why is that?...
