( e call for the ban. Marina Palomb...)Junk Food Advertisements To Be Restricted In All Forms of Media,Health

e call for the ban.

Marina Palomba, a spokesperson for the IPA, said: "It is nonsense to accuse advertisers of making people fat, when some well-known food brands have been advertised on television for over 40 years. There is no such thing as bad food, only a bad diet. Obesity is about a calories in and calories out issue. And obesity levels have increased since playing fields have been sold off and compulsory sports removed from school curriculum’s."

The Ofcom public consultation will close on the 30th of June and the IPA will be making a submission by the deadline.
