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.

Hard :disagree: because nowhere is gayer than l**ds, nowhere has a greater concentration of knob gobbling homos, it's not just the uni dropouts who stick around cause mummy doesn't appreciate them wanting to lop their cock off and wear dresses; it's a migration location for faggots from all over the place, it's the queer version of what happened to Detroit demographically speaking.
Manchester?
 
Spot on but to add on to the sentiment; l**ds is the gayshit capital of the UK, it's very much our version of LA with all the corrupting influences omnipresent there, and it's an utter magnet for Everything We Don't Like for... some reason.
Manchester has the likes of cAnal street and the malignant influence of le bbc, Birmingtsan is browned, l**ds? All that and more, it's some leyline nexus shit and I'm not sure why.

Have you ever been to Brighton ? Obviously I'm not risking a nose bleed and going that far North to Leeds to compare, but I can't believe it's got the Gay, Green, Liberal Bell End Capital of the South beaten on pure gayness. I only ever go to Brighton if I have to. The same way Cartman goes to San Fransisco.

Amerimongrel education strikes again.
Ah, I love the delicious taste of Bongoid cope whenever they desperately pretend the War of 1812 was a success and not ultimately a failure since they were forced to a draw against their former subjects despite their prior and well-demonstrated ability to make the entire European continent beg for mercy. Its the only food worth eating from your entire misbegotten island.

Brighton is fucking gay alright, it's poncey soufen pooftery defined; but it ain't fucking l**ds, it's not got the troon shit/the gayshit/the commie shit/the gyppos/the browns/the yuppies/the everything combo.

if you say so buddeh, I hear Shanghai is nice this time of year.
 
And more! There’s something really rotten in Leeds, like it’s some kind of outpost of hades
Perhaps, given Mermaids, the prostitution zone, Saville and the like all going in there, it might be accurate to say that while other areas have a larger gay community Leeds is the one with greatest concentration of actual predators?
 
Sentenced in 2018 for 7-12 years.
7 years for rape of children. They should have been hanged

Yes. If Brighton is Hell’s shop front, with all the visible pozz on display in bright colours, Leeds is the regional head office. There’s something very much amiss with Leeds that goes beyond just ‘gay.’ Brighton is gay, but it’s just very demonstrative woke rainbow shit. Leeds is darker, and Leeds is nasty. Bristol I think is also some sort of nexus. There’s something that links a lot of nasty stuff together in Leeds IMo. lots of disturbing sex/violence/depravity seems to collide there.

Bristol is trying to be the UK's version of Portland.

So, the USA gets what it wanted (no more impressment), meanwhile Napoleon dies like a bitch in English custody.

Not a very convincing argument that we lost anything.
 
Well if there's one thing I've learned about Leeds today - at one point they used to be with it, then certain people forcibly altered what "it" was. Now what Oldloiners are with isn't it, and what's "it" is fucking terrifying.
 
This is what used to wake Leeds and Yorkshire up in the morning, when they were more or less faggot free:


Bring this belter of a tune back, fuck the Call to Prayer, this is the Call T'Yorkshire instead.

Hmm.... X to disagree, personally, I think they're very much out and it's not if but when.
 
I haven't been to Europe in a long time, are their towns as ruined as ours? Have their governments intentionally spread the diversity to the rural areas? I've had a quick look around in Brittany for example and can't see an infestation of "turkish" barbers and vape shops, and not many browns roaming the streets. I'd like to go touring but am trying to work out where to avoid.

So "safe routes" is their jargon/PC way of saying "make it easier to come into the country to begin with". Facilitate and aid with their coming here, essentially.
A quick look into it serves this website.

I shared this extract because they're definitely infantilising the pair because these are grown-ass men - assuming they're not made up. Here's the extract alongside the image it was paired with.

Here's what they want, and it sounds fucking horrifying.
