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.

The protest videos have been entertaining, my favorite is this one:
A protester walks up to the cops full of confidence, then he gets hit in the head from behind, turns around and is hit in the crotch.

I don't pretend to have all the answers but torching police vans and smashing up innocent peoples communities ain't it, just cause theirs a mosque there doesn't mean it's exclusively Muslim in the local houses.

What the fuck are you talking about man, smashing up a random mosque is retarded and will in no way help any cause to reduce migration.

This KKK LARP is cringey as fuck.

More and more people are waking up to the issues of our immigration policies and it's becoming a lot easier to talk about it in public. That needs to continue, not chimping out like retards and giving the media exactly what they're dreaming of to counter the narrative of a muslim butchering kids

Oh yeah, because siting back idly and watching their government import Sub-Saharan niggers and Muslim rapists by the boatload, while persecuting the native population has worked wonders for the people of Britain so far... Something that you cucked and emasculated little bitches need to get through your heads is thet sometimes violence is the  ONLY solution to a problem, optics and perception be damned.

Violence doesn’t come out of nowhere. The mental barrier of just talking about it and being ALLOWED to be mad about it without having your life ruined needs to be overcome as well. Right now we live in a police state where mild statements like ‘maybe importing a few million people and not building any corresponding infrastructure is why we can’t get a doctors appointment..?’ Will see you fired and unpersoned and unbanked. There’s a massive amount of inertia, caused by what is essentially speech control (via social media and cancellations) which leads to what is basically mind control. When everyone around you ‘seems’ to support a thing few are brave enough to oppose it. We just lived through Covid and the crazy shit surrounding it, we’ve seen this up close
The Troubles was unique because there were two very clear sides, with a ready made base who believed very very fervently in what they wanted. You’d not get impersonated for saying your piece, becasue your whole community thought it too,

As soon as the UK hits that point, where it’s acceptable to say it, things will pop off. That’s why the news is censored so hard, it’s why you’re made to feel alone. As soon as a critical mass of people said ‘fuck you im not wearing your fucking masks and QR coding into the fucking pub’ it stopped. The British government is terrified of the masses. They know things are sliding down into violence and they have no way of controlling it if it genuinely pops off. Their control point it stopping people even considering it.

Tbf that Machete fight is because Southend is half an hour out from London - apparently gangs from there decided to come down for the week as it's the second week of summer holidays. Chalkwell fair coming up as well.

That said this is worse than normal for Southend. I guess now they feel emboldened to fuck around because Labour might give them softy sentences if they get caught.

I am familiar with Southend and can comment on the background to last night's sorry events.

In recent years, over the Summer holidays, there have been outbreaks of youth violence in and around the town. The mass brawl on Chalkwell beach a few years ago, or the running battles just along the cinder path in Old Leigh are very much the feral youth of the borough running amok. The more centralised gang violence that has become an annual July/August fixture along the Golden Mile is mostly perpetrated by out of towners. Every year it gets a little bit worse. In the aftermath, the Council wring their hands and you maybe see a few more police, but they do nothing to the point where their sideline presence adds insult to injury. A life-size statue of PC Plod from Noddy would be more efficacious.

The biggest lie ever told was that the Nazis were evil. They weren't, they were just efficient and not very subtle, typical Germans.

The Nazis spoiled Fascism for everybody.

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

The Nazis spoiled Fascism for everybody.

The Nazi's could have been brought under control with the help of the British and Russian diplomacy, if we had have ignored the yanks, who back-stabbed us anyway.

National socialism works and it works so well that you can't even say that it works without serious IRL consequences.

 

[SirCliveSinclairdabbing]

Oh yes, this is and has been a tactic for more than a decade. In more direct ways even. Just go to a gaming site and try to talk about fighting, doing or even talking about the censorship of something.

Civil disobedience is more than fighting.

I will not support people from a culture who consider other cultures less than human I will not use their businesses where possible (looking at you Asda).
Wash your own car instead of taking it to the illegals at the car wash
Buy fresh food from an allotment instead of the pesticide sprayed crap in tesco.
Only use supermarkets for their loss leaders.
Guerilla garden, apple trees can grow anywhere.
Pay in cash, usuary is a sin never apologise.
Take what you can off the grid, temu does single room solar lighting kits.
Make your hobby into a side hustle a cash in hand hustle.
We are at war with a government that wants us gone and not just in Minecraft.

I 100% agree. Granted, I'm a typical Amerimutt/ redneck/hillbilly/low-IQ/world-ignorant/insert whatever stereotype here, but it cannot be understated just HOW MUCH the 1st and especially 2nd ammendment are unique and special compared to most governed societies in the world. The founding fathers of the US realized that the government's fear of it's population was paramount, and understood that very well, to the point that the very first parts of our constitution were specifically called out to allow the citizens to criticize the government, and to arm themselves against that very same government. And anyone who is critical of the need for guns, or wants to criminalize nebulous "hatespeech" cannot see the forest for the trees. You Britbongs are a perfect example of that, sadly. Mudslimes are free to gangrape while you'll be jailed for calling them out. Its bizzare. Hell, it only took 25 years for Australia to go from a near total gun ban to draconian lockdowns and jailing their citizens over the bullshit Covid mandates.

I see the incremental creeping on these rights in the US as troubling, and the reason why the media switch all of a sudden flipped on Elon Musk the moment he bought Twitter and actually allowed people to have an opinion that wasn't pre-approved by the globohomo governments. You are right in that just allowing people to truly speak their minds freely is a really powerful tool, and the faggots in charge really hate that.

Huw Edwards pleads guilty to child porn. He had Category A images of children - that's sexual penetration, sex with animals or sadism. It wasn't just the coke-addicted 17 year old he was messaging either that the nonce apologists were handwringing over ("nooo the age of consent is 16, it should be legal to have pictures of 17 year olds"), that was bad enough: these were of kids age 7 to 14.
How the BBC kept this quiet so long, I do not know.

Any American will tell you to go to a poor neighborhood and whether it be black or white, Indian, Iranian, Chinese or icelandic, my best wishes after 11PM in what you find yourself in for. Poor = crime. They are by a huge margin (like triple, quadruple) going to be more criminal.

This is just laughably untrue, by such a huge margin it's silly to deny it. Do I need to find the table showing the *poorest quintile* of White majority districts (literal post-industrial Appalachian poverty towns) have lower violent crime rates than the *richest quintile* of black majority ones (DC-VA-MD suburbs of 6-fig DEI jobs)?

What the fuck are you talking about man, smashing up a random mosque is retarded and will in no way help any cause to reduce migration.

Notice how the fat drag queens and troons at things like the Olympics only attack Christianity but not Islam or Judaism? How do you think Muslims would respond, and what does that say about Christian responses to being attacked?

 

[pot of sneed]

Because they protect their own, until things get too hot and they have to throw out a sacrificial crumb under the wheels. Make no mistake, if it hadn't gotten out he'd still be protected.

This is it, isn't it. And that's the wider problem I think: some cultures, like the BBC's corporate culture, the Royals, Islamists, troons, coomers/gooners/"sex positive" wokelords, all have this priority of protecting the in-group even if one of their own has been raping children. Especially if it's out-group children. Sick degenerate moids and weak pathetic foids who cover for them or hand the victims over to them.

You get people like that in every culture but the good cultures will punish them and kick them out, bad cultures will excuse and tolerate it. Multicultural and multiethnic societies work IF the cultures all agree on a few basic principles, and "ate nonces" is a very good place to start as a definition for civilisation.

edit: civilised vs uncivilised is probably a bad term for it, literal animals protect their young better than some groups. If you've ever been on a farm, one of the first things they teach you is "never get between a mother and her baby", because no matter the species, even a nice cuddly herbivore like a sheep or cow will go berserk if she thinks you're a threat to her children: she'll raise the alarm and the entire herd will surround you and chase you away or kick you to death. You can judge people pretty well just by how they treat and protect their young, if they're better or worse than a dumb animal.

1. The licence fee pays for very expensive lawyers to stop the public who pay the licence fee knowing about the child abuse images their presenters (who are paid by your licence fee) possess.
Perhaps our licence fee would be better spent on the eradication of pedophilia in the ranks?
2. The British establishment is riddled top to bottom with child abusers. They all look out for each other,
Frankly the sooner both are scraped out like a gourd the better.
I haven’t paid licence fee in years. I do not watch terrestrial TV. I will never, ever pay the licence fee again, and when people ask why I tell them. Which brings me to point 2, which is stop being so bloody afraid to express your feelings.

but it cannot be understated just HOW MUCH the 1st and especially 2nd ammendment are unique and special compared to most governed societies in the world.

It is VITAL to talk about this stuff. The more reasonable and decent people just talk about it, and get angry about it, the more that mental barrier is broken. You’re NOT the only person who thinks like this. You’re NOT bad for pointing out a fact, or objecting to your country being stolen. You are NOT bad for being proud of your Britishness. Talk about it, for goodness sake people. Don’t be a retard, don’t be going full 1488 at work where you’ll get fired for it. Just talk.
‘Those poor girls. Apparently the parents are from Rwanda. Came over here the same year the genocide trials started and after it was safe, makes you think doesn’t it? No the riot started after a bloke from that mosque was found with a knife at the vigil. Wonder what he was doing with that…?’
That’s all it takes. You’ve planted a seed. Keep talking, keep criticising, stop obeying. Stop funding and contributing to your own eradication

Plod out in force in cov today. Wonder what that's about. 6 foot roamers near the centre, two cars and one civvie car. Didn't know we even had that many officers employed total.

It's as I said before, the powers that be is getting all the plods out to intimidate the native class. Where are these powerful plods when niggers and pakis are running riot? No, they are not around, just policewomen who meekly accept getting their noses broken but when it's the native class kicking up a fuss, out comes the full might of the law. They will scrape officers from around the country to quell unrest because what they are scared of most of all is when the working class plebs stop being afraid and realize that yes, they can do something about it, so skulls must be cracked until whitey is forced back into compliance. Somehow I think the genie just escaped from the bottle, it's a long hot summer after all and people know Labour's full of shit.
