When industry lobbyists win in New York, evidence from Geneva loses. Last week’s UNGA High-Level Meeting on #NCDs was a reminder of their potential & pitfalls. While summits can raise political priority, they risk undermining ⁦@WHO⁩ consensus

Hi Kai, In our view, #obesity is not getting the attention it deserves. The lack of attention is an own goal to health of people & economies - but great news for food & beverage industries. Member States negotiating agreement are being tremendously short-sighted. @WorldObesity

"In its refusal to renationalise water, it’s clear the government operates in the interests of private capital and not of the country." As usual George gets to the nub of it in a single sentence. Government is no longer acting in our interests but that of the markets.
