Successive governments criticised for doing ‘virtually nothing’ to reduce risk in the decade since cancer link found

Bacon and ham sold in the UK should carry cigarette-style labels warning that chemicals in them cause bowel cancer, scientists say.

Their demand comes as they criticise successive British governments for doing “virtually nothing” to reduce the risk from nitrites in the decade since they were found to definitely cause cancer.

Saturday marks a decade since the World Health Organization in October 2015 declared processed meat declared processed meat to be carcinogenic to humans, putting it in the same category as tobacco and asbestos.

    white savior complex…what? I’m offended becuase i dont like the word as to how it relates to people with autisum, and my son who has it is why i take it personal. your getting words outta left field and making this into some game im playing. I don’t see the USA as fascist. They are crazy, and RFK JR is a joke, but calling someone a retard becuase they dont agree with you is childish levels of conversation.

      Once again you refuse to listen to someone with Autism and insist that the fascistic threat isn’t real which furthmore discredits you being offended over the word retard. You have fundamentally demonstrated that you care significantly more about bad words than real bad policies. You are little more than a standard liberal and you fall into a perfect stereotype of a liberal parent of a child with autism who thinks that they’re significantly more important than anyone else.

      Therefore it is precisely because of liberals like you that fascism is taking power, liberals who refuse to take the threat seriously. In 1938 Liberals were talking about “peace in our time”, today its “they may be crazy but we have to reach across the isle”.

          Wow eveyone look, its a smug centrist who cant even bother to do the absolute bear minimum yet still thinks they can look down on others for saying naughty words. Yes I aknowlage that the system is fundamentally corrupt yet still I went out today and voted for Mamdani. From my point of view my political participation doesn’t start or end with voting.
