Nanny has pledged to "help close the deprivation gap" by looking at why children from poorer areas are more than twice as likely to be overweight.
Nanny's plan is to encourage all primary schools to introduce a daily "active mile" for children. Official advice recommends children should do 60 minutes of activity per day.
The measures, which will open for consultation by the end of the year, include:
- Banning the sale of sweets and snacks at checkouts, shop entrances and in buy-one-get-one-free deals
- New restrictions on advertising unhealthy food to children on TV and online, which could include a pre-9pm ban
- Clear calorie labelling in restaurants, cafes and takeaways, to help families know what they are eating
- Ending the sale of energy drinks containing high levels of caffeine, to children
The above restrictions won't make the slightest difference; it is not the state's role to manage what kids eat, it's the parents who should manage their kids' diets.

Those politicians who persecute business and lifestyle are not fit for public office. They are a disgrace.
ReplyDeleteyes, it is a travesty of what a conservative government should be. Time to get them off our backs, we did well until this shower got some power and then started to abuse it. Little people with little or no minds!
