I just saw this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3ewq00zlvdo
Apparently there's 500000 people in London who would get weight loss drugs under the NHS scheme but only 3000 who actually are.
I would how much those people are costing the NHS anyway - I really think they should be supported?
Anyone agree?

Hmmm. That's £2.5bn - I think that is about a third of what is spent on cancer treatment in London....you can see why it gets political in what the NHS should or can cover. I think extreme cases with co-morbidity should, serious cases.....
