Something we need to grasp is that Establishment power meant imperialism. Imperialism is a system of thought that sees upper class white men as the pinnacle of humanity, with a sacred duty to control the lives of others. What we now call the far right is an extension and revival of imperialism.

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences? Only one explanation now remains. They do. And it is what they want.

Obesity is the single largest risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes. Many individuals with type 2 diabetes are also overweight or obese, with some studies indicating that 90% of adults with the condition are in these weight categories. Maybe lifestyle changes are needed, rather than drugs.
