Enemies of Reason Poundshop potshots at the media moral maze.

Yes, it does say that

Leave aside for a moment (in fact forever) the fact that this week's purulent guff from Amanda Platell - in which she says that fatties shouldn't be treated by the NHS because they're fatties - is dismally argued, tiresome and all-round shite. No, have a quick look at the Mail's front page.

Yes. Yes, it does say that. It really does offer a free box of chocolates for every reader, above a plug for an article slagging off tubbies.

  1. Platell’s article is actually a lot more reasonable than the headline suggests. When I read it the tone was much more concerned with not giving operations such as stomach stapling so readily, suggesting that other routes (such as counselling) should be given a lot more priority. I was more in agreement than against when I read it.

    It was still available on the Mail’s website a few days ago – probably still is.
