MANCHESTER, United Kingdom: A woman stands outside a sandwich shop in Manchester, in north-west England, 10 October 2006. The United Kingdom is the fattest country in Europe, according to the BBC, based on a new study of obesity rates in England to be released Tuesday. The "Health Profile of England" report, compiled from government data, said some 24 percent of people in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are obese, the broadcaster added. This compares with just eight percent in Italy, nine percent in France and about 12 percent in Ireland, Germany and Spain.
