Revoke the new obesity regulations
Rejected

What the petition asks
The government should consider all circumstances not just the obese portion of society.
Revoke the new obesity regulations. The prime minister has not considered the estimated 1.6 million people suffering with eating disorders in the UK and this may trigger, prolong recovery and eventually cause relapse in some cases. The UK should be considerate ALL circumstances not just the obese.
