Labour — Stroud

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 January 2025

Debate

Obesity: Food and Diet

Contribution

I thank the Minister and all who have spoken because this has been a genuinely interesting debate about an essential topic. I would just like to say in summary that the hon. Member for Chester South and Eddisbury (Aphra Brandreth) needs to go into the supermarket when she is really busy and pick up a tasty healthy snack. If the Government can get people doing that, it will be fantastic. I say to the Minister that the House is behind him being radical; it is not the time for non-intervention. I thank all who have contributed. I missed supper and am starving, so I am going to go and have a healthy snack.
