What the fuck is this nigga Kier's problem?
Sugar causes obesity, which puts an unecessary strain on the nation's health services. If fatties want to stay fat, they can pay a premium for that privilege.
>>215800446literally the only stores that have those are KFC and burger king and only people who use it are obese
>>215800446thought the elites hated US citizens, but the elites in the UK seem to have an even greater hatred for their own people, like wtf is their problem?
>>215800481Don't you believe in a free market economy in the UK?
>>215800446>>215800481Good. Fat people make unhealthy society and no one wants to be around them even another fatties
>>215800568No we're a Communist authoritarian state under our glorious leader Sir Keir Starmer
>>215800446Free refills aren't a thing here unlike the US so nobody cares. I don't know anywhere that does them.
It's retarded. A refill cup, outside of a set, costs equivalent of a 2L soda bottle. How many people actually drink that much? Very few. Even a fatass who would, if given the chance, would have to stay there all day to actually get his money's worth.What this is outlawing is actually switching your drinks up, which is the real benefit of refills.

>>215800878A lot of economist care more about ideology than about empirical evidence.
>>215800535>pay more for sugar>hateI guess an american would see it that way
>>215800446I'm sure they will lose weight after eating a deep fried ham steak, bacon, black pudding, beans, butter bread, mushrooms, scones, biscuits, and a pitcher of milk tea every day for breakfast
>>215800568Free market doesn't work in the real world, the only reason you can afford to buy food is because the government heavily subsidises farming. Governments aren't businesses, they are supposed to offer basic services and infrastructure for every citizen (not just those that can afford to pay the market price for it). Many of these services will operate at a loss, so they need to be funded by taxes. And if a certain activity or behaviour is costing one of these services a lot of money, it makes sense to tax/regulate that behaviour out of existence.
Oi golly gubnah, I do hope me Prime Ministah puts a stop to them fizzy drinkerino refill contraptions as we’ve the self-control of a nipper in a sweet shop, we do
>banning refills >not just taxing sugar why are they so comically stupid

What about coke zero and other diet sodas?
>>215800446Britannia has fallen.
>>215802919>>215803025It effectively is a sugar tax. This is Domino's Pizza's drinks menu as a random example. If you compare 1.25l bottles, "Classic" Coke costs 32p more than Diet Coke. For 500ml bottles, the difference between Classic and Diet is 13p. Note that other soft drinks like Fanta don't have the same price increase because their sugar content is below the legal threshold. Additionally, the price difference is based on the size of the drink, since that determines how much "taxable sugar" there is to account for. With free refills, this becomes difficult to measure because the amount of liquid (and thus the amount of sugar) being consumed is variable. So it's easier from an accounting perspective to just avoid free refills entirely.
