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.

Am very surprised to learn of the ban. Otterly has always seemed like one of the voices of reason here. She must have found something she considered outrageous.

I'm not. Beware the fury of a patient man (or woman) AKA - When the Saxon began to hate. Everyone on this website has some kind of agenda and dear old Otterly is easy to keep track of, because, well, she doesn't exactly hide it. She's also one of the few people on this website that claim to be a woman, that is actually a woman as well (probably). She's an MVP of this thread and the whole site as well tbf but that doesn't mean to say she can't still get a bit worked up about things sometimes.

Pregnancy/abortion stuff is more of a hot topic for women, for obvious reasons. I'd imagine working in the health system the things she's seen might make this subject a bit harder to ignore or gloss over. Obviously can't speak for her, but hey, sometimes you just got to tie your flag to the mast. Good on her. Right or wrong. I didn't witness it so I couldn't possibly comment.

Girl needs to up her persec though because I've located her via triangulation of 3 particular specific posts to one certain town. In the UK is all I'm gonna say. But you knew that anyway. Just not exactly which town. My lips are sealed.

Few other people need to up their persec as well, as has already been mentioned.

What do you mean you don't want Nigger In A Flag Suit Nationalism? What are you? Some kind of racist?

Anyone who has been paying attention for the last oohh.. 10 years at least, will know they always play this ""I'm not racist - some of my best friends are black"" shtick. I mean, look at Red Pill Phil - LOL whatever happened to him? Oh that's right, he got cancelled by Google/Youtube when he spoke truth to power about the vaccines IIRC. He was a good bloke I think, but not so bright and certainly a little naive.

Then again I think there was a point where he saw a power vacuum in the leadership of the ""Alt-Right"" and he went for it and it kind of back-fired on him spectacularly. Anyway, Phil was black, and for those of you that don't know he was the pet-nog they used to roll out to show just how totally unracist they all were.

I mean, it's kinda getting old now, but to new people tuning in, I believe it's what they call ""good optics"" - or so they think. It gets the normies on side and alienates only the most beastly or RWDS raycissts (and those that understand the underlying reality we are actually dealing with). But there you go. It's not like any of this theater really matters, in that sense of it actually changing anything. You know. Not today, anyway.

Met claiming 110.000
I think they will down play it for the same reason they bus in hope not hate, they want you to feel isolated and outnumbered in your beliefs. I dont think its millions though, no chance.
Probably closer to 250k - 500k which is a very strong showing.

Any old hand at protests knows the game they play. It goes like this: one side that holds the protests bumps those rookie figure numbers up, the other side opposing the protests severely under counts and plays it down. If you are lucky, truth lies in the middle. But sometimes they skew the numbers so much it can make it difficult to say. Anyway, that's a safe heuristic absent any other facts (like actual photos).

Did they ever agree an accepted number on that? I remember estimates being anywhere from 600,000 to 1.5 million.

I think this is a case where the truth definitely does lie somewhere in the middle. I was there that day and I've never seen anything like it (fat lot of good it did anyway eh lads, remember them raising a glass to us all from the HoP as we sauntered by?). There was a fucking lot of people at that Stop the War protest and I would say definitely somewhere over a million, and maybe not far off 1.5 (but that's probably stretching it).

It's milling about under the assumption that a toothless show of hands matters in terms of politics. People genuinely think that if you show the government that they, their actions, and their ideology are hated, that the government will go ahead and leave. They won't. But it is nice to see so many people willing to go out and march around to demonstrate that they are pissed off.

Yeah, just like the news can't tell you what to think, but it can tell you what to think about, these kind of things are barometers and thermometers of just how hot it's getting and I'm pretty certain, that in that sense, the establishment takes these things very seriously and they are paying more attention right now than they ever were back in those heady, giddy, gay days of Stop the War etc. etc.

Enough people made the effort, knowing they would be photo'd and ID'd and probably put on some kind of naughty list, and they still did it. Cos thick morons they may be, but they aren't so stupid as to not realise in this day and age everything is weaponised against them and getting ready to be used at a later date for when SHTF.

These aren't just the lumpen proletariat now though, there's a whole swath of middle class strivers who've had their dream swept up from underneath their very feet, and they are pissed off. They might have been "standing on each others' shoulders kicking each others' teeth in" a decade or so ago, all in order to strive to get ahead, but it's academic now - the child has grown, the dream has gone, and now they all have just become not so (Ahh ahh ahh) comfortably numb.

They aren't quite at the stage that the Poll Tax rioters were in the early 90's, but again, beware the fury of a patient man (or woman). When the Saxon begins to hate, and when the levee breaks and all that. Plus they've been told in no uncertain terms by the recent psyops and propaganda that even shouting at a police horse is a custodial sentence. Btw, saw a woman empty a kettle of BOILING water over someone pushing their kid in a fucking wheelchair the other day in the DM. Did she do time? No, suspended sentence. Gotta keep those jail spaces for those that might ferment/foment dissent.

I mean, they did, but it was half-arsed. They were throwing bottles and cans at the police cordon where the counter protest was. There was no big surge and I didn't see anyone getting yanked out of the crowd either (which was a surprise). The police have been a lot more light-handed than I would have expected so far.

When I saw the numbers it reminded me of a prison, where there are 2000 inmates and maybe (if you're lucky) 200 prison officers/warders/wtf they call themselves these days. Everyone in that situation knows it's the prisoners who run the prison and they govern by consent.

But yeah, if old plod had been able to give a few uppity huwhyte niggers a bit of a shoeing, they would have. But nah, not today CIA.

I've been in a police riot where protesters were murdered in cold blood by the police and their horses. I've been kettled more than once too. Speaking from experience, it kind of dampens your enthusiasm for that 'sort of thing', if you know what I mean.

sort.webp


Considering the numbers, this has been about a billion times more civilised than the Notting Hill Carnival.

There probably isn't a thing on earth less civilised than that rotting decaying corpse. Imagine the smell! Then again, make the most of it because it's one hair's breadth away from a copper being killed or an acid attack on a famous person (or insert wtf here) before it gets shut down and the police won't have to deal with it and the expense of it anymore. It simply won't be financially viable to police in the coming years. And who knows what will happen then. Will it still go ahead in some kind of Apocalypse Now fashion? We live in interesting times. Even if they do smell funny.

And why wouldn't it be more civilised? It's mainly huwhyte people who as we know are not as murderous or quick to rage as your average nigger.

Yeah, the police haven't waded in like they normally like doing, because as thick as they are, the cunts can probably still count.

Quite simply, they didn't fancy their chances. And good luck with doing an old fashioned police riot when you have those kinds of numbers. Correct or accurate numbers, or not. There is safety in numbers. Today was one such day by the looks of it.

Probably due to the sheer number of protestors. As dumb as the UK police force is, even they are not retarded enough to piss off that many gammons all in one place.

Again, this guy gets it! Plus it would have been bad optics when now more than ever the cameras are rolling and no pig can be absolutely sure that the truncheon to the head he delivers isn't being fucking live streamed on jewtube.

I don't need that man to turn around, talk or even type out his beliefs. I can tell just by the back of this mans head his entire belief system and world view.

Yeah. That's the sort of guy that if you were in a pub having a piss and he called you a 'perfumed ponce', you'd just start crying, and with a mouth full of cheese and onion crisps, you'd calmly explain to him about how your wife's having a baby and that you have a serious heart condition!


Then run like fuck out the doors!

LOL.
 
So was the whole parade a success? I dipped in seen a nigger in a union jack suit. Seen a bunch of NZ savages waving the new zealand flag. Seen the jew avi yemeni spout a bunch of shite. Did fuck all happen? Did tommy tell the crowd to overwhelm the police and burn down every mosque/kill every shitskin like he should have done? Was it a wet fart like every other gay rally hes held in london? What was the point of it all?

Here's a funny thing I learned today. The BBC reported at the time that the Stop The War march was peaceful but that there were a handful of arrests. It was one small paragraph at the end of a long article. As I was reading that, they were reporting on tv about 8 arrests today but really 'concerned' about how awful that was. Makes me wonder how many 'a handful' was, in the context of a million-ish attendees, 8 sounds about right.

(And there were hundreds of arrests at the NYC Stop The War march, but I can't remember if I knew that at the time or not.)

I have been seeing retards calling the protesters ordering Indian food hypocrites (someone took a video of one guy buying from a food vendor).
Why yes eating foreign food means the bongs need to let gorillions of foreigners into Britain. 🤦‍♂️
 
@Morethanabitfoolish I don't recall that person sorry, must have been before my time.

As for Reform UK and voting for them, though I am a voter and member of the party I respect and accept the right of people to say 'No' to Nigel and voting for them.

Your vote is your choice, and there's plenty of people on the Right who won't be voting for Reform UK - they're seen as too 'milquetoast' or not tough enough; for these people it's Britain First as the BNP and National Front are no longer credible options having become almost forgotten about entities.

Reform UK has the mileage and has the stage presence that the BNP and Nick Griffin never got to have - whatever you think of Griffin, he at least gave it a go. His problem, however, was that the BNP was ultra far right and it stayed there - it didn't pivot to ordinary voters, many of whom voted for the traditional big three of LibLabCon... three parties in one.

I would only say that there is only Reform UK available as an option - it's not a perfect one, granted, but no other Right Wing party is ahead of Labour, Tories, Lib Dems etc. If they were and if Britain First were outdoing Reform UK then maybe there's a case for backing Paul and Ashlea... however they are only likely to win the seat of Tamworth IF Reform UK stand aside there at the next GE. It won't happen.

Tamworth, Nuneaton, Tameside constituencies and Nottingham constituencies do have a high mark up of Britain First supporters, but whether or not they'll remain loyal to them and not switch to vote Nigel because he has more chance and the popular vote and populist thinking is with him remains to be seen.

Just remember that no other party apart from Reform UK can offer you anywhere near what you want - and if Reform UK is a no-no then maybe consider backing your local Independent PPC if there's no other option to you that suits what you want.

The funniest take I saw posted was from some salty lefty whining about an 'eccentric billionaire wishing to overthrow our Government' arguing 'we just don't do this in the UK!'

Oh my sweet summer child... for your homework, do please look up 'Lord Mountbatten, William Rees-Mogg, Heathrow Airport 1974, Harold Wilson and alleged links to the KGB.'

Or, if you're a fan of 'The Crown':

Chanting "there are many many more of us than you" at the police while utterly failing to even attempt to push back at the high-vis clad assortment of dysgenic mutts, those bullied at school and tiny women waving batons almost as long as they are. Sa

Also had it confirmed to me earlier that Nick Lowles has issued threats against Sarah Lang, a Reform UK councilor from Pontypool who was recently in the news for 'posing in provocative photos'.

These were:

1) Wishing death on her
2) Wishing migrants would rape her kids

Wales Online (specifically Will Hayward) won't run with the story because 'it's not a story of interest and she most likely made it up for attention'.

Yet it's enough for Gwent Police and the Metropolitan Police to investigate and take seriously.

I hope that if Mark Rowley has had enough of the woke bollocks that Lowles is taken in for questioning at the very least - if the ISP matches etc. then it is him or somebody at HNH who sent it.

If the Met has leaked info out, then they will be investigated by Police Standards.
Will this come out widely?

This is what you say when you have no argument. If you can accept Germans and Franks being British then you can accept a black man being happy to be here to be British, and if you can then you just don't like black people and are too cowardly to just say that instead you couch it behind all these other reasons.

I know your kind too well and you do more harm than good. You'd sooner see us all suffer a complete collapse than entertain the idea that a non white could be normal.

Is "I don't like em' other colours" not a valid answer for you? Besides, they are (shockingly!) part of the immigrant problem. So, uh, get out me house ya fag?

No it's not a valid answer, Its an answer a child gives. Then focus on the ones causing problems, not a random black guy looking happy wearing a English flag suit.
