Another risible obesity prediction

Have you noticed that Cancer Research UK has been putting out a lot of politically motivated junk in the last couple of years? Remember the bathfull of cola nonsense? The trend began when they started working with anti-smoking activists like Linda Bauld, coincidentally enough.

Their latest piffle is an obesity forecast that doesn't make sense even if you accept their own stupid methodology. Every newspaper has lapped it up, as usual, and I've written about it for Spectator Health. Do have a read.
