Jamie Oliver’s proposed sugar tax for fizzy drinks has stirred up much debate, as the government rejected the idea.<\/p>\n

Having gained over 147,000 signatures for his petition, Jamie continues his campaign against sugar.<\/p>\n

The manager, Aly Attya, of Cardiff’s Jamie’s Italian Restaurant, is\u00a0in support of the sugar tax as he said, “For me, it\u2019s a good idea… because there\u2019s been a hundred issues and operations every week in the UK regarding diabetes.”<\/p>\n

Aly also conceded that the sugar tax implemented in Jamie’s restaurants is failing to deter customers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We decided to investigate further by interviewing people on the streets of Cardiff regarding the sugar tax issue.<\/p>\n
