Speaking on BBC Breakfast, she said: "It does feel like we're trying to control everything. At the end of the day you've got to have a little bit of willpower, haven't you...

"If somebody's smoking next to you, you can't help but inhale that.

"If someone's got a cake next to you, you don't have to eat it, do you?"


Sums it up for me

Some people argue they have very little will power themselves.... especially on Jeremy Vine this morning. Most of them were saying they'd give in to temptation ,when it's laid in front of them.

But I wouldn't agree with completely banning it , you can't stop people bringing in cakes or buns into a office . A treat is a treat . Smokers smoke outside anyway?....so that argument isn't really valid, unless you're at a bustop or something inhaling it .

I mean we are talking about grown ups here, this is almost the equivalent of everyone winning a race in school, I get that some people have issues with food and I do get that there is an obesity/type 2 diabetes crises but preventing people from bringing cakes into the office is a bit extreme

Anything to keep dehumanising people. Don't bring cakes into the office, how dare people have a couple mins of happiness whilst wading their way through the mundane, painfully boring hell at times that is the office.

Right. All you have to do is not do it, which is less energy than doing.

Spose it's better than the entire bookies emptying for a quick piss round the back.
