lower prices for fruit and vegetables and raise taxes on junk food to help improve the obesity crisis
The obesity crisis in the UK is never going to improve whilst the price of healthy foods such as fruit & vegetables remains so high, whilst the price of junk food is so low. This petition is to force retailers to lower the prices they charge for healthy foods and to raise the price of fatty junk items.
