Fat people (really fat people - not people who are just a bit porky) disgust me at the best of times, but fat people who are so brazen in their apparent delight at being fat, and their feeling of entitlement to other people's money, really does make me despair. I say 'apparent delight' because I simply do not believe that fat people would rather be fat than slim....

// Ludwig -many people eat pizzas and fish and chips occasionally and not to excess-why should they suffer because certain people can't control themselves? //
If they're eating them occasionally they're not exactly having to suffer much with an extra 10p on their weekly bag of chips. However, if you're shoving burgers down your gob all day, you'll be paying more. It's targeting the tax at the right people.
It's either that or everyone's tax and NI goes up the same, and the occasional chip eaters end up paying more, with no incentive for tubby people to eat healthier food, or less of it.

I have no idea retro. I'm just supporting the idea of a fat tax in principle.
The sensible eater is being penalised for the excesses of others anyway. This is just a fairer way of spreading the cost - unless you want to scrap the NHS and welfare state of course and let everyone either pay their own way for everything or starve/die. That's a different debate though.

factor -thought that was about average £3.50 to £ 4.50 for fish plus chips - last place we went on while on holiday

(A) I am fat - my heaviest weight was about 22 stone. I am a few stone less than that now.
(B) I don't work and have not done so since 2003 when I became unfit for work.
There is absolutely no connection between each of these statements. It could be that these lovely ladies have other 'invisible' problems.
Being seriously overweight stresses out the whole body - my knees creak ominously and catching the Lion Cubs to take them to the vet is a nightmare.
What I don't understand is why they are so publicly gloating about it. DWP may be suspicious about their claims - maybe they are Pole Dancers at the weekend - maybe they are not bright enough to work? We will never know.

I think slim people often find it hard to understand over eating, not that they have anything against over weight people in general.
Once I feel full I can't eat anymore. I don't think I've ever felt stuffed like some people I know. My partner would start sweating because he's eating too much. Lucky for him he has a very active job and good genes.
My mums side of the family are tall and slim. My dads side are small and fat. If you're small you look fatter.
