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.
