There’s been a push for New Zealand to follow England's lead in combating obesity rates. 

NHS figures suggest England's turned the tide on rising obesity rates for the first time in two decades. 

Obesity rates in adults have remained stable for the past five years.

He says we've been told by WHO and panels across the world on what to implement - but the country hasn't listened.
