Government anti-obesity proposal includes levying VAT on cheese, butter
http://society.guardian.co.uk/publi...1151421,00.html
I posted the complete story in the LC Research/Media section of the forum.
This is only at the "proposal" stage right now, but if it goes through it will effectively penalize UK residents who choose to lose weight via a Low Carb method.
I find this unsupportable, but alas I cannot vote here so my opinion won't make a damned bit of difference to the powers that be.
Don't let them force us to subsidize the casualties of the "deadly saturated fat" dinosaur theory and the stupid high-carb diet fad! Let this government know what you think!
