In case you hadn’t noticed, we’re all getting fatter. Or to put it politically correctly, ‘wider at the waist’. Now you can harp on about genes all you want, but let’s face it - here in the West we eat a hefty helping of junk food. And to prove this point and highlight the growing epidemic of obesity, the Government has released this - the UK’s very own ‘fat map’.

The full list and explanation is at SkyNews, but I’ll just very quickly gloat over the fact that London is one of the slimmest places - ha!
