“It’s not a weight issue, does a size 20 dress use more material, yes or no? Yes!” she argued.Using bedding and curtains as an example, Lizzie argued that more material should mean a higher price. Her argument caused uproar among the panel, with Piers Morgan attacking her for what he called ‘essentially a fat tax’ that shames women of bigger sizes. Piers referenced a number of viewers who wrote in about their medical conditions which have impacted their weight and why it was unfair to punish them for that with the price of clothing. Lizzie responded saying that “if they have a medical condition they could take their prescription to the shop.” Viewers were left furious with Cundy’s remarks and took to Twitter to share their shock.

No. It’s ridiculous. We don’t charge more for bigger shoes!
