Government action on food can improve the nation’s health, protect the NHS & bolster the economy.
Like the smoking ban, citizens support policies that set guardrails for businesses so that public health is put before private profit.

Our diet is as great a threat to our economy as it is to our health. Nine times as great as previously thought. Whichever government is in power in 10 years time will be crippled by this if we don’t act.
