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.

One near me has always been pakis. I went there once and thought it was worse than getting a sandwich from boots.
Think that's bad? All the decent chippys around me have been taken over by cuzzies.

I can tolerate a kebab shop being ran by pakis and turks but I cannot reasonably tolerate a fucking staple of British culture being ran by filthy, disgusting pakis.
 
It could be the bread that smells, yeah.

I dunno, though, I feel like maybe there's another factor involved.

One of life's many mysteries...

You aren't wrong, I popped into my local Subway bare in mind I live in the middle of nowhere. One black and 2 jeets... My town has like a 99% white population until the nearest city started importing them by the boat load. The contempt people have for these "people" is subterranean. The elderly don't even interact with them. Even the local business owners hate them.
 
Like 10 years ago Subway used to use a chemical used in the production of plastic and yoga mats in their bread dough. Yummers.
This sounds like the sort of midwit talking points that terminally online worrywarts and 'diet coke gives you cancer' type neurotic women spew.

So fuck it, I'll go and research it.

Ten seconds later, I find out that azodicarbonamide is literally just a chemical used to bleach bread and that the big scare is that when baked it can cause female mice to have significantly higher chances of getting cancer. So just as expected "ingredient used in plastic" is correct, but in a complete misinformation way to make you assume that there's something disgusting and toxic in the bread.

So I'm guessing that the reason Subways smell isn't because of this chemical, but because they're staffed by fucking pakis.

Look, I like my funny little myths and I'd rather they weren't ruined. They also stopped using it back in 2014.
Besides, there is something disgusting and toxic in the bread.
The subway fillings.

It's not a curry smell. It's something with their bread for sure. It's in the same smell as when you buy cheap American style bread and it's like eating poundland marshmallows. It's overly sugary and sweet in a chemical way. Sort of like sugared bleach.
 
Believe it or not, they actually manufacture the bread smell, which is caused by heating the bread from frozen. They are then told by management to "cook" bread at increments, like at lunch time, etc.

The obvious troon who denied their a troon just casually calling someone paying tribute to a victim of a hate crime a dirty old fuck. I hate these absolute deviants.n
 
Anyone else seen how those muslims who battered those coppers at manchester airport have more or less gotten off with it and will walk free? Honestly, I was sorta miffed about it at first, but after a bit of a thought, know what? Good. Fuck them. The British police don't give a fuck when your daughter gets raped by pakis, they put you in handcuffs when a brownoid stabs you multiple times so you can bleed to death in the street like a dog, they spy on us like we're all fucking criminals, so a broken nose and a bit of a kicking is a small price to pay for the wonders of diversity, in my humble opinion. I'm sure the police and government will agree. You get what you deserve, you pig fucks.

I can garan fucking tee that if we broke down the races of the unemployed youths, they are blacks and pakis or Arabs.
Data suggests that the pakis and blacks have the jobs, and the whites have been pushed aside.
You can scream at whitey all you want, but when the whites pay most of the bill, and then their offspring cannot pay the bill, then we got a problem.
Whitey who can pay the bill have left and/or are leaving at historically high rates. The ones left behind are jobless, soon to be homeless, freezing and hungry.

RE:Subway because why not.
15 years ago the subway where I lived at the time was staffed by so many pakis that pork products were removed from the menu. You couldn't get a sausage sarnie for 3 miles around.

How the Hell a jury could fail to reach a decision on this the first time, I don't know. It makes one very, very curious to know what the jury looked like.
 
Alright faggits hope we are all enjoying the weather. I have been. That storm was pathetic. While the site was down;

Andy Burnham U-turns on migrants receiving benefits, much like his predecessor, he will be U-turning. Migrants should no longer have immediate access to public funds. The archive is fucked idk why

The Henry Nowak officers were three female police officers. (X) Polish pages are absolutely fucking livid about this and there have been multiple demonstrations/protests outside the court.
New details about Henry Nowak murder. Three female officers responded to scene."The officer who handcuffed Henry laughed when he said he had been stabbed. He was then dragged across the gravel and held in handcuffs as he bled out. Only after he lost consciousness did officers remove the handcuffs and begin CPR. Henry died at the scene. Police also seized Henry's and his father's phone and searched all messages for racist comments or jokes"

Word clouds from More in Common about what people think of each leader.

The Procurement Files, (X) twitter page, has been digging up shops across the country that are allowed to grant 'skilled worker' visas, including a vape shop and sweets stores. There are more and more 'citizen journalist' types investigating high street shops.

There are 79 vape shops on the Home Office’s public register of licensed visa sponsors. ‘Guardian Vapes Ltd’ in South Shields is licensed to sponsor overseas workers via the ‘Skilled Worker Visa’ route.

The Government is planning to find an extra 300,000 jobs for youths but has not given any guarantee they will go to, you know, British kids. I had some fag Guardian journo email me to ask for my views on why 18-24 year olds are not being hired, lmfao.

A doctor in his 50s was stabbed 'multiple times' in the early hours on the 27th while on duty in Hillingdon Hospital, it is understood he was treating his attacker. The Met has charged 27-year-old Mahdi Abdullahi with causing GBH with intent, possession of an offensive weapon and theft of knives. He gave an interview af, and guess what? he's the Reform candidate for Greenhill. (X)

There were three other reported stabbings in London over the heatwave, including Notting Hill (X)

Irish news has been fucking shocking. A woman was found with her throat slit behind a migrant hotel. There have been multiple shooting threats issued to schools. I had more articles and points saved but I'm a bit tipsy. Cheers cunts

You always make good posts. Post the Irish news when you're done getting sloshed please.

We all knew the heat would get things rowdy.
 
You can buy this on Amazon right now.
This is like the demonic version if women laughing with salad, somehow
Low-molecular-weight esters of butyric acid,
Ahhhhhhhhh… ok. That’s a chemical found in sick, and also used to sour the abomination that is modern chocolate and it’s why hersheys smells of vomit.
I'm guessing that the reason Subways smell isn't because of this chemical, but because they're staffed by fucking pakis.
No it’s not - like overly says, it’s a really reproducible and specific smell. If it’s manufactured and pumped out deliberately then I can only laugh in horror because it’s an absolutely disgusting smell. I know many supermarkets deliberately vent their bakeries out near the doors and front of the shop to draw people in. Baking bread does smell good. Whatever subway have smells revolting and I agree with @Overly Serious - I get it’s one of those things people taste/smell differently like coriander
He gave an interview af, and guess what? he's the Reform candidate for Greenhill.
Curiouser and curiouser. Well I hope he’s ok

Iranian woman slashed up behind the hotel, ft other front pages. She was working in the hotel at the time and her attacker had already committed violent acts, for which he was moved to another hotel. She leaves behind two children.
A woman found stabbed to death near an IPAS centre had been attacked by her alleged killer on several occasions in the weeks before she died, Extra.ie has learned.

The victim, Iranian mother of two Masuma Sohrabi, 31, was discovered near the Waterloo House International Protection Accommodation Services centre in Clifden, Co. Galway, yesterday morning.
She had suffered severe injuries to her neck and throat, and her remains were found in a wooded area. A man, also in his 30s, was discovered a short time later with injuries. He was arrested and can be held for questioning by gardaí for up to 24 hours.


Sources said he was ‘covered in blood’ and also had injuries to his own neck. He was known to Ms Sohrabi and had previously been staying in the same IPAS accommodation as her. However, he had been moved to another facility due to violent incidents involving the victim in recent months.
Gardaí stressed that the attack did not happen within the accommodation centre building.


Ms Sohrabi had been working at the Alcock and Browne Hotel in Clifden.


It is understood she had also been reported missing by staff at the IPAS centre. She had two young children who attended primary school in the area. The principal of Scoil Mhuire, Dara McAleer, issued a statement to the community yesterday, saying: ‘On behalf of Scoil Mhuire, Clifden, I want to acknowledge that this is an incredibly difficult time for our school community.


‘Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with the family and friends of the deceased.
‘The wellbeing of our pupils is our absolute priority.


‘The National Educational Psychological Service are onsite with us today, and our staff are working to support every child in their care. We would ask that the privacy of the family and of our school community be respected at this time.’
Extra.ie understands that Ms Sohrabi was seen being assaulted by the arrested man the day before her body was discovered.


Security sources said she had been assaulted several times by the arrested man since she had arrived in Ireland. They explained: ‘The woman had come to Ireland from Iran in 2024 along with members of her family.


‘She was placed in accommodation as is protocol. But there were some serious incidents of violence that she was subjected to, so the person who attacked her was moved.’

They added: ‘She had been working in the Alcock and Browne Hotel while her application for asylum was being processed. But the man who had attacked her had kept following her and attacking her, which led her to go through the courts to get some protection from him.


‘The day before her body was found, she had been attacked by this same man in the streets. It was only that someone walking by saw what happened and separated the pair of them.



‘Her body was discovered away from the property and it was obvious she had been the victim of a very violent attack.’


In a statement yesterday, gardaí said they were investigating ‘all the circumstances of a fatal incident’ near Galway Road, Clifden. The statement read: ‘This morning, gardaí attended an emergency at residential premises. The body of an adult female (aged in her 30s) was discovered at a nearby location.


‘An adult male (aged in his 30s) was arrested and is currently receiving medical treatment. An Garda Síochána is not looking for any other person in relation to this incident at this time and is following a definite line of enquiry.


‘The scene has been preserved, and the body will be removed in due course the results of a postmortem will assist in determining the course of the ongoing investigation.’

Garda Patrols after threatening emails sent to Carlow Schools 1780071608630.png Sounds like some weird discord 764 adjacent shit, 'kitty mafia'? Sounds like those weird radicalised femboys (especially if they were groomed online by yanks, hence the school shooting threats), but its weird it keeps happening across the Isles. (X)
Gardaí say they have carried out high-visibility patrols near all 42 primary schools in Co Carlow after a number of schools did not open in the county.

Gardaí said that a threatening email had been sent to 20 primary schools in the county, with up to 10 schools making the decision to close.

An image of a high-powered machine gun and two handguns was included in the email that was sent to the schools in question.

However, a reverse image search of the picture shows that it is a stock image widely available online.

The image of the machine gun and two handguns is included in a YouTube video first posted six years ago.

The same image is also the cover image of a song on Spotify that dates back to 2021.

It is understood that one line of inquiry that gardaí are following is that the email may have been sent to the schools by a group that deliberately sets out to create a large-scale policing response through the spread of false threats and disinformation.

This group has previously targeted other countries using the same methods and such threats have turned out to be a hoax.

Gardaí said the threatening email was believed to have been routed through another country and that the credibility of the message was still being investigated.

They have been in contact with the schools affected and are also in contact at a senior level with the Department of Education.

The principal of St Joseph's National School in Carlow town, Fergal Browne, said he believed the threat was a hoax, but that it was "very upsetting" for children and parents.

Mr Browne, who is also a local Fine Gael councillor, said that a "generic email" was sent from an unknown account threatening that there would be a shooting.

He said he decided to keep St Joseph's NS open after liaising with gardaí.

He said: "We want to reassure all parents and guardians. These things happen, unfortunately. It is very upsetting for school staff and parents. We are being extra vigilant today and are liaising with gardaí at all times."

A Department of Education spokesperson said: "The safety and wellbeing of children is the department's first priority and An Garda Síochána is in direct contact with the affected schools to assess the situation and provide support to them.

"The department will continue to work closely with An Garda Síochána and affected schools throughout the day."
'Why would somebody do this?'

Aine, a parents whose children go to school in Tullow, told RTÉ's Liveline that she had decided not to send them in as she had received a message from the school saying it was closed as a precaution.

She said the message came in at 9am, but some other children had already arrived at the school, and that there was a lot of confusion over what the threat was.

Another parent, Denise, said it caused mayhem in her house as she and her husband are self-employed, so they had to rework their childcare.

"It’s a bit of an inconvenience to say the least," she said.

She said: "You’re wondering, ok, this can’t be real, this is a hoax or it’s just there to cause fear and to cause chaos rather than an actual threat of something happening in the school itself."

She said it was strange - "why would somebody do this, like what’s their purpose behind it?"

The Irish Times also released statistics that six out of ten jobs go to migrants. (X) Just a little before our figures came out... and days before the Economist reposted an article (original article, archive) about how we should 'rebuild' the asylum system to house refugees in their own countries (which is cheaper, and more effective (and was something Cameron was lambasted for))... the world marches madly on

Curiouser and curiouser. Well I hope he’s ok
It was bound to happen by sole virtue of him working in A&E. Staff are attacked daily here in Bham, I can only imagine London is a warzone.

Remigration Now with this poster. They are continuing their sticker campaign; I noticed Tommy Robinson posters on the lampposts outside Moor Street. Only one had been torn down.

In related jeet news; I've stopped going to a cafe near me because the Indians are fucking rude as shit, the drinks are never made the same way each time, and I've been feeling sick after drinking them for some reason, the other day my drink was grey. I sent a complaint in as it's a chain. Maybe i'm just paranoid.
 
what? why would they do that? why should chocolate be sour at all?
No it isn’t, but some recipes need something like buttermilk, which is the same idea. When you make real chocolate you use milk fats, and when you make the hideous sick flavoured slop that is chemical chocolate flavoured product you use butyric acid as part of the process to stabilise the lipids in the milk. This is why Europeans think hersheys tastes like sick. Because it does, and it’s why we are incandescent with rage that Kraft and mondelez fucked up cadbury so much. They used to use milk and have some other way of stabilising bit now they use palm fat (gross) and stabilise with souring. It tastes far worse, you can taste the stale greasy peanut taste of the palm oil and then the sourness.
When I’m queen, the entire board and executive structure will be told to put the recipe back how of was and anyone objecting will face a vat of boiling palm oil.
 
@Heinrich Maneuver Wasn't a Nero, was it? I used to go to one in the nearest city to me pre-jeetification, the coffee was tolerable, I saw an all jeet staff, and went to the nearest Starbucks. One place I will say is shocking now is UK Tim Hortons, the quality used to be amazing, but I bought food not realising all jeets, and it was diabolical.

Good to see the Police are shitting themselves over this, they deserve it. Racist fucks!
