Processed meat is classified by the World Health Organization as a Group 1 carcinogen — the same category as tobacco. It increases the risk of bowel cancer, heart disease, and early death. Yet there’s no warning on the label.

Meanwhile, everyday Brits are kept in the dark while corporate food giants rake in profits, hiding the truth behind slick packaging and faux patriotic branding.

We call on the UK Government to:

• Mandate bold cancer warnings on all processed meat products (bacon, sausages, ham, etc.)
• Protect public health by making sure families know the risks.
• Stand up to powerful lobbies that prioritise profit over lives

If Ireland can do it with alcohol, why can’t Britain lead the way on meat?

This isn’t about banning anything — it’s about telling the truth. Give people the facts. Let them decide.
