Not sure how I feel about this one.
Whilst I understand the NHS is straining to provide services I'm not sure that it should be actively refusing services. In the article it does mention that people can be given surgery if they lose 10% of the weight or if they can prove they have not smoked for eight weeks.
If you were to target the obese and smokers (of which I am both) surely you should also be targeting the likes of those who go and get drunk of their faces and also those who engage in extreme sports
Hell, why not target those who use cycles or motorcycles?
Not sure on the legality of the entire situation. Hopefully it wont happen
