Nanny knows best…

It is a sad, sad, reflection on our society that we have little better to concern ourselves with than pandering to the dictat of the Health Fascists. Here is a round-up of the health scares published in the media so far this year. And this is just for this year! These sanctimonious busy-body’s have been wagging their know-it-all fingers at us for decades.

Am I the only one who is getting a bit fed up of listening to it all?
