UK British News Megathread - aka CWCissey's news thread

https://news.sky.com/story/row-over-new-greggs-vegan-sausage-rolls-heats-up-11597679 (https://archive.ph/5Ba6o)

A heated row has broken out over a move by Britain's largest bakery chain to launch a vegan sausage roll.

The pastry, which is filled with a meat substitute and encased in 96 pastry layers, is available in 950 Greggs stores across the country.

It was promised after 20,000 people signed a petition calling for the snack to be launched to accommodate plant-based diet eaters.


But the vegan sausage roll's launch has been greeted by a mixed reaction: Some consumers welcomed it, while others voiced their objections.

Cook and food poverty campaigner Jack Monroe declared she was "frantically googling to see what time my nearest opens tomorrow morning because I will be outside".

While TV writer Brydie Lee-Kennedy called herself "very pro the Greggs vegan sausage roll because anything that wrenches veganism back from the 'clean eating' wellness folk is a good thing".

One Twitter user wrote that finding vegan sausage rolls missing from a store in Corby had "ruined my morning".

Another said: "My son is allergic to dairy products which means I can't really go to Greggs when he's with me. Now I can. Thank you vegans."

TV presenter Piers Morgan led the charge of those outraged by the new roll.

"Nobody was waiting for a vegan bloody sausage, you PC-ravaged clowns," he wrote on Twitter.

Mr Morgan later complained at receiving "howling abuse from vegans", adding: "I get it, you're all hangry. I would be too if I only ate plants and gruel."

Another Twitter user said: "I really struggle to believe that 20,000 vegans are that desperate to eat in a Greggs."

"You don't paint a mustach (sic) on the Mona Lisa and you don't mess with the perfect sausage roll," one quipped.

Journalist Nooruddean Choudry suggested Greggs introduce a halal steak bake to "crank the fume levels right up to 11".

The bakery chain told concerned customers that "change is good" and that there would "always be a classic sausage roll".

It comes on the same day McDonald's launched its first vegetarian "Happy Meal", designed for children.

The new dish comes with a "veggie wrap", instead of the usual chicken or beef option.

It should be noted that Piers Morgan and Greggs share the same PR firm, so I'm thinking this is some serious faux outrage and South Park KKK gambiting here.

If this is to be believed: YouTube is supressing videos talking about the recent court ruling on transgenders in the UK

According to the channel anyone covering this issue seems to take a massive view hit only on videos talking about this subject. Troons at YouTube seething and dilating that they will never be legally real women? YouTube is an American site operating in the UK so is this an example of the American troon state supressing us?

He shot a retreating child in the back with an unlicensed shotgun.

As much as I hate gypsies, housebreakers, and our retarded laws regarding self-defence and firearms, Tony Martin is NOT a hero.

The shit he pulled would have got him a long time in prison in Texas.

"Barras had already been convicted of a total of 29 offences by the time of his death at the age of 16, including assault, seven convictions for theft and six for fraud. He had been sentenced to two months in a young offenders' institution for assaulting a police officer, theft and being drunk and disorderly. On the night he was killed, Barras had just been released on bail after being accused of stealing garden furniture."

Poor child.

Jim Davidson is saying he's seen CCTV of Kier and Alli mashing faces outside Lord Alli's penthouse. No verification or proof, but I'm willing to believe it because I used to watch Big Break.

Labour now demanding the Tories apologise for pandering to the transgender community

The absolute fucking cheek of it. It was Labour that brought in the GRA in 2004 and the Equality Act 2010 that amended it to remove even the slightest hint of "medical need". Starmer spent a great deal of his career supporting troonery. I don't understand how Labour think they can just lie their way through this whole thing when they were instrumental in getting it started to begin with.

He wasn't a child and the family had threatened martin's life on multiple occasions.

As much as I hate gypsies, housebreakers, and our retarded laws regarding self-defence and firearms, Tony Martin is NOT a hero.

Yes he is. He's one of the few brits in recent memory who said "fuck this, I'm standing my ground". He didn't cuck or pussy out to some lowlife scumbags, he fragged them good.
The country wouldn't be as shit as it was if everyone stood up to the gypos, pakis and rampant wogs.

We want people to stay in this country and stand and fight for their country, their land and to defend their family. He did all of that. He was the canary down the mine of what was to come.

Give me puzzle pieces.

"Please vote Reform saar! Reform saar!"

I'm starting to think Reform might not be a British right wing party lads? Who else has had this feeling as of late?

Cutting heads always, always, always sends a company on a downward death spiral that, without intervention from someone with a fucking brain between their ears, usually signals the end of the company.

It depends on the company or department. The NHS and other public organizations could cut their DEI departments to save money and lose nothing. A famous example was Elon Musk firing 80% of Twitter staff and nothing changing.

Yesterday I was in Sunderland, to see a show. I've never been there before.
I was followed for half an hour by group of 5-6 men, who were saying leery creepy things to me ("SexyLady", "I can be good husband", "Come with me, we can fun" etc) then speaking in whatever language they spoke.

And yet, I'm told time and again that "oop norf" is a land of white people relatively untouched by "diversity".

I'm starting to think Reform might not be a British right wing party lads?

Hasn't this been the case for a while? I don't follow them, but don't they keep cucking in the name of optics?

Allegedly, when it came to the Jim Davidson footage, it was so bad that Victoria Starmer, when shown by a friend witness at the event, filed for divorce. She has barely made a public appearance since. If true, which I suspect, then it is pretty major. Cease and desists are being handed out like candy, and they have been scrubbed.

I keep seeing TRAs post about cis women having to share bathrooms with burly trans men now as if it's some kind of gotcha.

Sorry poonochio you might pass on your carefully curated Instagram but you will never be a real boy.

Why do you keep posting these fanfics?

CCTV footage of starmer and Ali would be hilarious. I have no idea if it’s true but I want it to be.
There will be many ‘taking power by the back door’ jokes

Is "muh pakis" really the best you can do?

I mean at the end of the day I can say nigger and visit Kiwifarms without a VPN(?) and you can't.

I'm actually visiting without a VPN right now (I'm going to turn it back on in a moment, but I wanted to prove a point). Dear feeder seems to have turned the block off.

I can also say nigger. I won't get arrested for it. We have ridiculous speech laws, but merely being racist in Greggs isn't actually illegal.

Recently, Irish nationalists on Twitter have uncovered that a member of the British Homeland Party, Carter McAfee, was a "former femboy". Who had a homosexual interest in BAME (Black, Asian, and minority ethnic) men. Here some of the images.

Here is the Twitter thread and archive of the links.

How can the Homoland Party recover from this?

You spent so much time gloating that you can, that you never stopped to wonder if you shan.

They'll do anything to one-up PA.

It's only a Kiwiflare block, as soon as you get the token from that you can browse without it again.

Who had a homosexual interest in BAME

Average right wing loyalist protestant activist.
