 A fatuous survey - CGNorwich
At last we know why people are getting fatter:

www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-13948071

"They suggest efforts to prevent obesity should focus on reducing the number of snacks and meals a day as well as portion size."

Who would have thought it?

...Another shock headline on the BBC news site at the moment: "Births fuel UK population rise"...

It's another BBC right-on message, albeit well hidden: "It's not the fault of immigration."

Just the prior immigrants having lots of children.

The BBC has a very noticeable bias..

It could just be facts without any message

But being a Daily Mail reader that's probably not part of your experience.

From the horse's mouth. The 2011 Census will home in on the data as well.
