straight men are not the ones in charge of ads.

They won't define a minimum weight, though.

There isn't a set list of rules (i.e. the law) that anyone can read and follow, and if necessary dispute in an impartial court of law. No, they'd prefer to leave it open-ended so a panel of bureaucrats can make arbitrary decisions at any time.

Like the time everyone had to stay at home due to a pandemic. But BLM riots were OK - they refused to do contact tracing linked to the riots because they knew how to work the communist bureaucracy

If they were really concerned with health, they'd define a maximum weight too.

90% of weight related health issues are due to OVERWEIGHT. So why is the constant focus on underweight people?

The model in that image looks unhealthy. Still shouldn’t be banned though.

Looks like a tranny. Maybe UK being TERF-Central they are trying to go after them because of that? After all real women are at least 200kg.

Just like when they banned Dove for portraying morbidly obese Lizzo as a "self-esteem model", right?

UK has massive government bloat.

There is a reason they have a financial black hole that can’t be filled

Immigration costs the government money.
