That’s the article I was reading, it’s just up the road from my old stomping ground. Thump does the sarcasm better than me.

Wegovy: what you need to know about this weight loss drug

THECONVERSATION.COM

Overweight or obese patients who meet certain criteria will soon be able to access the much talked about weight-loss jab.

 

Thoughts?

 

Doesn't seem like a good idea to me, far from a sustainable solution. Much better to tackle the root causes of the problem.

What would be your solution Mark, how many of these predominantly military age male illegal ( often economic) immigrants would you be willing to fetch in, bearing in mind they have to be fed and housed at taxpayers expense. Please no citizen smith Tory bad Labour good shite ok.

Why not let them work for their bed and board? Military age male illegal people would be ideal for filling the labour shortage that is one of the many things grinding us down. Our lazy overweight benefit beneficiaries can't do anything, let alone hard manual labour.

Unbelievably I don’t even think your joking, link the receipt benefits to attendance at work schemes or something along those lines rather than paying such types to be at home. Mind you watching my local council teams do pot hole repairs is pretty much how I’d imagine it going. But still at least they’d be off their idle arses.
