Calls have been made to ban the Coca-Cola truck from Liverpool this Christmas amid concerns about obesity levels in the city.
Liverpool's Liberal Democrat leader Richard Kemp said the city is "in the grip of an obesity epidemic". He believes Coca-Cola's popular festive vehicle promotes a product which is "grossly unhealthy", as first reported in the Liverpool Echo. A Coca-Cola spokesman said the truck also promotes sugar-free drinks.
Mr Kemp has written a letter to managers of the Liverpool One shopping district, setting out his opposition to the "cynical event" His concerns come four months after a study by Public Health Liverpool naming and shaming what it said were the most sugary breakfast cereals.

VLM lives in constant fear, might be easier to ask why he is just plain phobic. Even Christmas probably sets him off as he arms himself for the upcoming "war". Happy Holidays ya big freak!
