| Re: Obesity Fight in the UK: Minister Announces Physical Activity Role They have to do something. Uk is at the top in Europe:
A quarter of women and a fifth of men in the UK are now so overweight that their health is at serious risk.
British women head the EU league, with 23 per cent clinically obese, and men fare little better, with 22.3 per cent classified as obese -behind only Malta.

EU's statistical office, will fuel fears that Britain is facing a public health timebomb created by a growing reliance on fast food and time-saving technology.
