Mike Rayner has publicly called for [[The_Tobacco_Template#Higher_Taxes | increases of, or special taxes on,]] food deemed to be 'unhealthy' in order to dissuade people from buying as much and magically reducing obesity.

In [[The_Tobacco_Template#Mike_Rayner_-_Department_of_Public_Health_at_Oxford_University_-_food_-_May_16_2012|May of 2012,]] he called for up to a 20% increase<ref>http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2012/may/16/fat-tax-unhealthy-food-effect?newsfeed=true</ref> in the price of 'unhealthy food,' or up to 12p<ref>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-17741124</ref> on a can of soft drink (At the time, a 24 pack of Coke could be obtained for £9.99<ref>http://www.theofficesuppliessupermarket.com/p/coca-cola-coke-soft-drink-can-330ml-ref-a00768-pack-24?tc=gbase&utm_source=base&utm_medium=shopping</ref> which is just under 42p a can, so an increase of 28.5%)

Mike believes:
{{quote|You may not believe that I have heard God aright but '''I think God is calling me to work towards the introduction of soft-drink taxes in this country''' and I am looking forward to the day when General Synod debates the ethical issues surrounding this type of tax rather than some of the other issues that august body seems obsessed by.<ref name="blogger-secular" />}}
