Statement Released By Beat - The Leading National Eating Disorder Charity -On The Recent Comments By Shadow Local Government Secretary Eric Pickles On John Prescott:
"We are disappointed by this irresponsible and thoughtless comment. Any comments that might prevent someone from seeking treatment by trivialising the condition are potentially very dangerous. Eating disorders are a serious mental illness and still too often misunderstood. Mr Prescott was very brave and honest when speaking about his own condition and this has led to many more men seeking the help they need to beat their eating disorder"
