Anti formula marketing/advertising petition.

Can I ask for your support and to sign and share this petition? http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/24494

if it gets at least 100,000 signatures, it will be eligible for debate in the House of Commons.

 

The petition is not anti-formula it is anti the marketing/advertising of it  (For every baby born Approx £20 is spent to promote Formula by its companies compared to about  14 pence spent by the UK government to promote breastfeeding).
It’s part of a bigger picture that strives for formula to be the exception not the norm and to encourage breastfeeding and the support
offered to mothers to succeed at it. The ban IS in place throughout Scandinavia where the breastfeeding rates are far far higher than here in the UK. This is an important issue to me but it is in no way meant to offend anyone at all.

Thank you
