The government's pledge to turn around rising obesity rates in England over the next decade is set to fail unless the prime minister personally spearheads a major reset, a cross‑party committee of MPs has found. The health and social care select committee said there is no evidence that the so‑called "moonshot ambition on obesity," embedded in the 10‑year health plan, will produce significant change. The Guardian reported that MPs concluded the current strategy needs a fresh plan driven by direct leadership from Downing Street if the decade‑long ambition is to stand any chance of success.
