The only problem with the slippery slope….

Is that the bottom eventually arrives:
A radical plan to improve the nation’s health - including a workplace “exercise hour” - has been unveiled by a leading Government adviser.New figures today show England is the fattest country in the EU. Now Professor Julian Le Grand, chairman of Health England, hopes to encourage people to improve their diets, give up smoking and exercise more.
He proposed the introduction of a smoking permit, which smokers would be required to show each time they bought tobacco. It is then their choice to go smoke free and not buy a permit.
Companies with more than 500 staff would have an ” exercise hour”. Employees would have to deliberately choose not to join in…
Not join in for now, they mean. It’s easy to say that this is just England. And it’s easy to note (as the article does) that this is still the opposite of current government policy. But the problem remains that it is still obscenely logical. And if it follows from the premise, it will eventually arrive.
