    Very good journalism from The Guardian.

    If I wanted to hurt the NHS, I would do everything I can to make sure people are unhealthy.

    After the guidance was dropped, the Food and Drinks Federation boasted about its lobbying success, hailing the victory in a “key wins” section of its website, the Guardian found.

    “The FDF’s engagement with Department of Health and Social Care officials … resulted in the removal of the reference to ‘minimally processed’ in the HFSS promotions guidance.”

    Imagine being paid to attack public health.

    Of course, the top executives of Unilever or Coca-Cola UK do not give a shit about this. As far as they are concerned, the only things that matters is their own compensation.

    One wonders what, exactly, these fetid ghouls deployed to get their rancid snot-encrusted whinging acted upon.
