According to official statistics the inhabitants of Scotland are the second most obese in the 'developed' world, next to America.
Looks as though they are getting fat at the expense of the English taxpayers who subsidise them.

I'm surprised to see the Czechs so high up the table: when I was there, all the women looked like supermodels and the men were slimmer than rakes. Looks like consumer terror is finally catching up with them.

You know why the United States is tops? Because we have so many Scots, Mexicans, Brits, Canadians, Greeks, Australians, New Zealanders, Hungarians, Czechs, Germans, French, Italians and Norwegians living here.
