Victoria Atkins says her husband's sugar job is no conflict.
That’s welcome news, because voluntary action from industry to cut sugar has been an abject failure.
The sugar levy has forced their hand on reformulation.
Govt needs to go further and faster.

Did you know it's National Smile Month? Poor oral health has been described as a "disease of poverty". It's one that has a knock on effect on the whole body.
