"Labour wants to give millions of obese, unemployed Britons free fat-busting jabs used by celebrities in a desperate bid to get them off the couch and 'back to work'.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting is planning to offer jobless Brits free jabs of the controversial 'miracle' weight loss drug, Ozempic.
Sir Keir Starmer today backed the idea, insisting it could help ease demands on the NHS and boost the economy."

Meanwhile up to eight care facilities, either for full time residential care, or care facilities where people with special needs visit 3 or 4 times a week, to keep them mobile and give them a purpose in life and also offer their carers a few hours respite, are under threat of closure.
One of the main hospitals here was last week refused the funding they badly need to make it safe. A couple of months ago patients had to evacuate as a ceiling fell in, then last week, on the same day that it was announced funding had been refused, a light fitting fell from the rotting ceiling in a delivery room in the maternity block, narrowly missing a birthing mother.
But let's give the people who stuff themselves too much and excercise too little , expensive slimmng aids funded by the ones who actually do work, or have worked all their lives without draining the country by expecting freebies..

Whilst you are as predictable as ever.
No intelligent response, no offer of an opinion, just snide comments in every thread you enter.
You should stick to the quiz, at least you made a contribution there.

That's a fairly expensive drug. Damn sure ain't free to the taxpayer..
Also, it has a lot of side effects in many who take it. Those will require more medical attention.
Stupid idea all the way around..

Obesity is a huge problem.
Maybe instead of giving the lazy over indulgent workshy free jabs, the government would be better off concentrating on all the sugary crap that's disguised in many foods.
Step up sports and physical education in schools, at the minute it's 2 measly hours a week....fit kids grow into fit adults.
Prevention is better than cure.

Put The Proclaimers in charge of weight loss. If you walk 500 miles, then 500 more, you're bound to lose weight..🙄😉

It's not so much how much these people eat but what. They need to be educated. Not given drugs that fuck up the microbiome.

I suppose when people are really overweight it can cause various disabilities....obesity is a killer.
Giving free jabs away, (at taxpayers expense) is an expensive sticking plaster not a cure. Unless people retrain their eating and excercise routine, the weight will just pile back.
Once more Starmer proving he is a bloody idiot.

If the obesity is caused by over eating, and it usually is, I agree.
But the best way to stop this fat epademic, is to regulate the amount of crap that's put in our food, get kids off their arses and into the gyms and sport fields, and NOT pander to idleness with rewards.
I also think it would be a good idea for the press not to pretend flab is attractive....it isn't.

Also those fat jabs are mainly for Diabetes. Apparently not safe for weightloss.

The NHS are already saying they will not be able to cope with the demand for the free jabs.
They are already crumbling in many areas, this will just be an added burden on them.

Maybe free yoga lessons, for the non white ones anyway?

Did you mistake Yoga for Sumo?
I think Ms Stanley did
I clicked on her name, mainly to see what else she was babbling about.
The content of her other vids (I just read the titles, that was enough) and the images they provoked, would make a really good diet aid.
Yeah, she's a weirdo in several fronts..
A very large weirdo..
