Overweight people need support and diet's not benefits!

There are many people who are overweight in the UK and the number is alarmingly rising rapidly every day, month, year. This is costing the NHS and Public Billions of pounds as a result of this.

I understand that some people cannot control their weight for health reasons, such as a thyroid problem or it may just be in their genes. This petition is NOT aimed at you.

This petition is aimed at those who claim benefits for basically over eating - this is a disgusting sight to see and it MUST STOP. They are being fed thousands of pounds a year which in turn, is feeding them the fatty foods that they binge on, on a daily basis.

Here is an example from a Daily Mail story dated 15/01/2015:
'I'd rather my daughter live life on benefits being fat and happy than depressed and thin,' Janice, who weighs 26st, told The Sun's Jenny Francis

This is costing the NHS billions of pounds a year which could be spent on Oncology treatment, life saving operations, more staff, more care to the patient, more hospitals and equipment, saving children, cancer research. But instead this is spent on Lazy, Benfit grabbing individualds.

Tell me something.. WHAT MOTIVATES THESE PEOPLE TO LOOSE WEIGHT IF THEY ARE MAKING A WAGE EQUIVALENT TO AN ACCOUNTANT WITHOUT HAVING TO DO ANYTHING ?!!!!!
