People using weight loss injections still have “a responsibility to look after their own health” by exercising frequently, according to Wes Streeting. Following a healthy diet and regular exercise should be adopted by individuals with obesity, even if they are using weight loss jabs, the Health Secretary has said.

I don’t think suddenly we’ve got X amount of unemployed people and we all give them Mounjaro and once they start losing weight, that’s it, they’re all suddenly going to be in employment'

Health Secretary Wes Streeting has been lambasted for his "unfair" move to trial weight loss jabs with unemployed Britons, as GB News host Andrew Pierce stated that the latest Labour initiative is "punishing hard-working Britons".
