Unfortunately I know that too well Mick. My son was diagnosed with testicular cancer at 17. Fortunately it's one of the most treatable cancers. He's fine, but it's been 5 years of scans, endless appointments, false alarms, that we could all have done without. It's screwed up his education more than anything.
There are cancer risks like age and genetics that we can do nothing about. But it makes sense to limit the lifestyle risks we can control, like diet, smoking, sunburn. An increasing number of people are going to get cancer in an ageing population, but not necessarily die from it. It'll soon be seen as a natural part of old age.
As for chips and the EU, I don't want to give either up
