[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1266975, member: 196898"] It was quite clear from the opening bars that it was going to be a snuff movie. with extra gratuitous gore added in. Shameful. The concluding section where it was brazenly declared as fact - that bariatric surgery is th ONLY way to cure T2D, and that ALL T2's need to be given bariatric surgery[COLOR=#ff0000] is a load of cobblers.[/COLOR] Unfortunately this is not the first time we have seen that message in the media recently. There is a lobbying group pushing this point of view quite strongly, and it is so sad that the media is open to supporting it. Bad news sells more newspapers! Unfortunately it seems that the other Diabetes group seem to support PHE (and were involved in that programme too) and are not open to alternative points of view either. Having tried to post on their forum, I found it to be quite closed to new ideas. All they want is for me to make donations cashwise, not thoughtwise. They are not lobbying in my name, so I do not support them. [/QUOTE]
