Tax fatty foods and lower prices on fruit,veg,meat, cereals and nuts

Additional Information

Obeasty rates are increasing so are health problems, I'm proposing that we tax unhealthy foods, fizzy sweet drinks, sweets, crisps, biscuits,frozen junk food, super tax for chain fast food companies and ban children during school hours visiting fast food chains etc

In return make fruit,veg, meat, cereals and nuts lower in price and therefore affordable to everyone. (currently its cheaper for low income families to take the unhealthy options) In turn this will save the Heath service millions as people will opt for the affordable option and you may just see reduction in obesity and a healthier nation with less sick days and Heath
Problems.
