 New #ONS data suggests that White British people's mortality rate is above those from different ethnic backgrounds.

Partly this is about #class & wealth - deprived areas (often populated by white #workingclass) have higher mortality rates;

Partly this is an issue of the 'healthy migrant'; it seems that #migrants to UK often have better health than life-time residents.

Both, point to our dysfunctional #foodsystem that offers rubbish to the poor(er) sectors of society as a key factor
