Fat shaming poster row - has billboard crossed the line? #BBCNolan
A gym billboard poster warning fat people that aliens will 'take them first' has been slammed for being 'offensive', according to an anti-bullying charity. The 20-foot high advert in Derbyshire, promotes the Fit4Less gym and shows aliens beaming up a person into their spaceship alongside the words 'they'll take the fat ones first'. Leisure bosses said the billboard was intended to be 'light-hearted and humorous', but it has caused outrage with a local charity. What do you think - harmless tongue in cheek marketing or downright bullying? Enda was joined by the chief executive of the gym's parent company Energie Group, Jan Spaticchia, commentator Emma Woolf and size acceptance campaigner Kathryn Szrodecki
