Air France are looking at making people who eat more than others pay more, seeing as they take up more of the limited space on offer. As the population grows and we all start to crowd each others personal space a little more, should this sort of discrimination be more wide spread?

Well strictly they do pay more in life for the more food they eat. But then we pay for the NHS to look after their fat-related health problems....

You'd always get people dodging the system. Look what that Ricky Hatton chap does at his weigh-ins! Before he looks like Gandhi, a day later he's Ricky Gervais's twin brother.

Perhaps they should tax them when they smell like ass, too.

While we're at it, charge more for people who don't wash often enough, people who cough a lot, people who bring their wild-animal kids on board and let them loose, people who ... the list is endless.

What about high cholesterol? Shouldn't these miscreants be made to pay more, as well? Or child molesters? Couldn't the airlines find a way to charge them more?

I suggest having TSA screeners do full body scans of obese passengers and then have them weighed in full view of the other passengers on an industrial scale while laughing loudly and snorting like pigs at them.

Then have the flight attendants give them the fat pinch test every time they walk by them on the plane. And only allow them to drink diet coke during the flight.

Public shaming works best.

Extract their fat using liposuction prior to the flight, and use that fat in oil burning boilers to heat the airport in winter. Everyone's a winner!
