Coca Cola Sponsorship Of The London Eye

EDM number 723 in 2014-15, proposed by Keith Vaz on 22/01/2015.
Categorised under the topics of Companies, Cultural heritage and Health education and preventive medicine.

That this House is concerned with the public health implications of Coca Cola sponsoring a major landmark of the UK, the London Eye; notes the London Eye is clearly branded in Coca Cola livery and lit bright red; believes this prominent promotion of a high energy, high sugar product is irresponsible at a time of record child obesity, rotten teeth and diabetes levels; further notes this sponsorship deal comes after the commitment by the NHS to an evidence-based national health prevention strategy; and calls on the Government to intervene and review the implications of this decision.

This motion has been signed by a total of 13 MPs.
