Re: Sugar tax

[QUOTE=Big Joe;1215378]Did anyone see Mondays Panorama entitled get rich or die young. Based in Stockton which is only a couple of miles from me where because of poverty you will die 20 years younger.

think this has always been the case but for different reasons nowadays. those who did hard manual labour were old before their time. lack of money meant their wives were always scrimping and saving on everything. there was not the modern day fast foods around but i knew of kids who had their best meal when they were at school. funny though the pubs never shut down then and i remember queues waiting for opening time on sundays. has junk food taken over from ale for those who are poorer.
