First tobacco, now sugar. Next they’ll be regulating our trousers

“Do you know that fizzy drinks and chocolate are bad for you? For that matter, do you know they are bad for you because they have lots of sugar in them? Of course you do – not least because both facts are blindingly obvious to all but the smallest child. And yet the latest batch of public health busybodies, Action on Sugar, think differently.  Launched on Thursday, the pressure group helpfully explained to the nation that sugar consumption is ‘linked to obesity’. Like all those with a need to nanny other adults, it intends to save us from the threat, whether we like it or not.  Its formula is drearily predictable: regulation and taxes ought to be brought in – for our own good, of course.”
