I have never heard anything so absurd as taxing the obese.:mad:
Low fat asian diets have you ever seen how much ghee they put in stuff.:rotfl:
No government would dare privatise the nhs unless they like being in opposition for a very long time.
Finally i think you are a wind up merchant with a dumb user name

Troll is the word you are looking for, and one of the dimmer ones at that as well.

have you ever tried eating only rice for your whole life?

why not create holiday / work camps for people so that they can do something constructive like build bridges over rivers in Thailand.

Ooh, im a pilot and fat people really take the biscuit. For every 30 pounds above the average body weight, airliners consume an extra POUND OF FUEL AN HOUR!!!!

Everyone should be 'weighed in' with their baggage, the allowance should be body mass +baggage mass. I hate being told I am over my 30Kg limit longhaul, when I weigh 68 Kgs!!!!

I dont get that. Why not just go for a run outside listening to an ipod?

You could put the tax on waist measurements, which is a much more accurate indicator of how healthy somebodies weight is. Every inch over the limit could be £500 tax at the end of the FY.

hurts the knees / trainers wear out too fast on the pavement / can't afford an ipod / children point and laugh at wobbly bits / live in an estate where people throw cider cans at you / there's a swimming pool at the gym too / just don't want to run outside in the cold, alright?
