Fat Tax on Junk Food

Recent research produced several economic models to encourage healthier diets by increasing the cost of unhealthy foods. Is this a way to encourage healthier diets and weight loss in Britain, or are we becoming the ‘Nanny State’ Tony Blair was worried about?

Blair rejected the idea of tax on fatty foods in 2004, as it would make Britain too much of a ‘nanny state’! Perhaps we should all forget the healthy diet and keep popping diet pills such as Acomplia instead?

Spitbank Fort

In case anyone has not seen it, I nearly broke my neck again going out on RIB, it was good fun. but sitting on the side of the Quay getting in with the Solent underneath my paralysed legs was not good.

Smoking in the Boys Room

Smoke Free England is here. Or is it? The smoking ban in England officially came into force at 6.00am on Sunday 1st July 2007. Why 6.00am? Who knows. But there it is. Makes as much sense as the draconian measures the government have taken over this blanket ban.

The original White Paper on Public Health issued in 2004 stated that public houses and establishments selling prepared food would be the target of the smoking ban. This made total sense, and gave businesses such as non-food Pubs the option. Whatever happened with that turnaround? Was there a referendum? A public vote? Even a general consensus debate with the businesses affected? If there was, it was kept very quiet.

According to current PC hype and statistics, there are now 146 countries that are ‘happily smoke-free’. Closer to home, we are led to believe that the bans in Scotland and Ireland were met with open arms, and have had a positive effect on the pub trade. So how come when you actually speak to individuals rather than statisticians the opposite appears to be true? Just try searching the non-PC forums for a small sample of the feedback and a much more honest picture.

If we (the smokers of England) are all so happy to be dictated to in this fashion, why haven’t we all done the ‘sensible’ thing and given up? Why should a pub Landlord be driven to declaring his business an official consulate for a tiny island off Antigua, just to maintain his freedom of choice?

There are plenty of non-smoking establishments such as cinemas, restaurants, cafes and public transport. Why pick on those public houses that wish to exercise their right to choose. Where will it stop? Did you know that Westminster City Council have already applied to ban smoking in the streets? How soon before other local Councils follow suit? When will it become illegal to smoke in our own homes? Well, it is already actually if you work from home and share that space with colleagues or visitors to your business!

So what is the answer? The government is making sympathetic noises with regard to helping those who want to stop smoking. There is a plethora of smoking cessation aids to help you quit smoking, and now that Champix has been approved for UK prescription, perhaps now is the time to consider quitting smoking once and for all. Me? I’m off to see Sir Bob Beech in Southampton to get some tips on setting up an Embassy at my local.

Anita Sarawak

If you are into your older women you might want to check out the profile of Anita Sarawak. I saw an image of her on a slimming pills blog where she has stated the only reason she is slim is down to hard work and good diet.

She has got a fit body on her - she is currently being boned by some bloke from the UK

No - This is the greenest car ever

I'm sorry Webbloke, but I have to disagree with what you are saying with that. I did some simple research and I found the greenest car ever.
