A McDiploma and a quarter of Jelly Babies please! And no I don’t want to go large!

My local MP Stephen Hesford has had a story published in one of the local newspapers deriding supermarkets for selling sweets and causing childhood obesity!

This from a man whom took hospitality from McDonalds for the World Cup in Germany! I think he is entitled to the first McDiploma in “Spin”!

    Another example of Labour having no solutions (of their own) for the major problems
    facing us today. Back in 2006, David Cameron highlighted the argument for removing
    sweets/chocolate from the supermarket tills (”the chocolate orange” debate). Instead of
    gimmicks and press releases, what about some action? Although we have dieticians on
    the Wirral - there are no specific services available for children. This is a growing problem
    (please mind the pun) which really needs to be addressed today - I really don’t think
    writing letters to shops and asking them to move a few sweets is the solution.

    Torymedstudent… firstly sorry for not having any jobs for you in the UK… perhaps you should try elsewhere?

    The points you make are valid and far reaching… the threatened closures of Leisure services facilities by the Labour - LidDem Council on The Wirral are a cause of trouble with the youth of tomorrow… never mind the middle aged of today like me!

    Perhaps if you fail to win a place with a Hospital you could write a letter to my MP expressing your frustration?

    And you never know you could be one of the first to get a fast track place to the McDonalds University doing Classics? And by Classics I mean a MRM styles Rib sandwich with a Mc before it, and a not as big as it looks in the picture “Beef burger” type burger and fries, oh and tickets to a FIFA hosted sporting event!
