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.

How long do you think it's going to be before this left wing political violence spreads to the UK? We follow them like a lost sheep and especially the leftists online do. Are we going to start seeing extreme leftist violence here copy catting the increased usage there?

It will happen.
It is already happening.

The point is tolerance.
Will the centrists and right tolerate the violence?

Wasn't the S Club tv series basically just a vehicle to have enough of a budget to create some extravagant music videos? Or am I getting muddled up with the timeline.

rapey Epping migrant is only getting a 12 month sentence.

Don't forget that there are people still in jail right now for saying mean words on facebook. According to the government I can rape three kids and that's just about equivalent to one niggering in a facebook comment section. Can't even say I hope the prisoners deal the proper sentence because they'll all just be asking for help to do it themselves.

She (Charlie Dimmock) never wore a bra, that’s why.

I can never remember who most of the people on here are. They're all just nebulous names to me. I google that name and the fucking first image that shows up very clearly has her nipples poking through her clothes.

He later told police he was protecting his religion, Southwark Crown Court heard.

Hypothetically if I was a muslim and saw two gay people holding hands outside a mosque could I do the same? Afterall burning the quran is about as bad as being gay. What would win the government wanting to suck up to muslims or gays?

I swear the left wing media class make better arguments to vote Reform then Reform themselves

Idk about you guys but when I was in school all the browns kept to themselves. There was no mixed race friend groups, there were whites and there were browns. Removing them doesn't 'break up' social groups because they never wanted to be in them to begin with.

I went down a rabbit hole after watching this video on twitter.

So you can't cut some grass because of the wildlife. Was there any proof of any rare flowers in that area? Is the land in any way protected? I know there's a few pieces of open land near me, one of them you could easily hold a kite festival on, the other there is no chance because it is protected. Is that the case? And is there any proof that cutting the grass would even cause problems? You know considering grass is basically a weed and will actually choke out rare flowers it might be better to cut the grass (obviously not to 1cm tall) than to leave it as is, even the actual national parks go around cutting down plants every so often. The entire thing sounds retarded, if it's public land they should be allowed to do whatever on it short of erecting structures, if it's private land then just ask whoever owns it and no one should be allowed to intervene, if it's private land owned by the government then fuck it where's the hammer and sickle? Are a group of people not allowed to walk around without needing a license from the government nowadays? I cannot think of anything less destructive than a load of families with their children mostly just standing around. It's not like someone's going to start a fucking moshpit at the kite festival.

More importantly if disturbing this greenbelt plot is so critical then why the fuck are we shoving dogshit plastic walled mosques on giant cement slabs in those exact sorts of areas?

Halliwell's tits are a British treasure

Which one of you is this?

They're brownoids. Look at the facial features.

I will say that some of them from a distance do look indian but considering the recording quality that isn't saying much. There's one that even though you can only see his back looks almost 100% indian. But if you think that these people are brown you are fucking retarded as shit.

Clearly some sort of coastal mediterranean group. Also you can see the incredibly pronounced tan lines when they're swimming, that's not their actual skin colour that's a tan. I'd be more willing to bet spanish than anything bordering on the third world, greek at the absolute worst. There are two types of racist, those that just hate anything that doesn't look like them because of instinct and those that know the exact differences in races and why you should hate them beyond instinct, be the latter not the former. Also fuck her tits for a second her armpits are pretty hot.

It's not miscegenation if you just really like the personality damnit.

She looks like that one spastic from tracy beaker but black. I do not know if this is anywhere near accurate but that's how I remember her looking.

And it's Posh, btw.

You can't mention her and not this absolute classic ali g interview smh. Also none of them are that attractive, they're all too overly plasticky and airbrushed. Ginger from that one video is the best, most of the images that come up they all look just too overdone. I also can't explain it but I always found posh's face to just look wrong, her entire bone structure is just kinda ugly, I don't know who it reminds me of but my mind went straight to noel edmonds if that means anything. And if you want to talk about early 2000s hotties you cannot ignore the cbbc show raven even if he does look a bit like a downy richard hammond cross billy mitchel. My first actual crush was raven but the one from teen titans, shame the cosplays of her never turn out good unlike asuka ones which are some of the hottest just in general. Both David tennant and rose are also hot. And it's more late 2000s but ian stirling and inbetweeners simon are also pretty hot nowadays and yes from what you're probably thinking of and yes alex horne is also pretty attractive too.

point of contention, YOU can't rape three kids and get 12 months, your white (i assume) you'll get the max sentence.

The ability of men to find the most random things sexy is sometimes terrifying and sometimes almost charming.
Better than feet anyway

Already does happen, their just not quite as ballsy over here since they for the most part do not have guns.

Though compared to the US, they have the left in control and as much as the current left complains about how Labour has treat them as of late. They have gotten mostly what they want or they are being funded by them.

This is hentai exposure to the point where weird shit becomes normal to them. This isn't the typical weird interests men have. It's a loser who consumes so much pornography they end up creating fetishes to masturbate to out of boredom.

 

[Geoff Capes Vapes Apes]

The armpit is the groin of the upper torso

 

[SirCliveSinclairdabbing]

TBH, wasn't my sort of music anyway.

It’s not any blokes sorta music.
That sorta music is there to remind you of the one that didn’t work out for you and she loved that album so you had to listen to it cross eyed thinking about Phil Collins and your fixed interest rate so you could last long enough.

It’s why you can find yourself singing along to Taylor swift on the M6 instead of driving into the central reservation.

Also, changed my vote. Diane yewdale.

Yea no man would ever find shaved smooth armpits attractive, no man has ever said that before. It's so weird and strange unlike back in the 2000s when everyone had fucking bellybutton fetishes, that's normal instead.

If you think that is bad, I will raise you a lad (not me) who cut a hole into his mattress and then glued a life size cut out of Britney Spears in a bikini to it.

You can guess where the hole was.

Wasn't one of those old wool lined mattresses was it welshie?

You get a Manchurian Candidate inspired tile cutter when the EastEnders outro comes on too?

I have no idea, I still can't get over the fact that some guy would do that - fuck his mattress thinking he was cooming in Britney's lady parts...

We've given the world some great people, but there's a lot of total and utter degenerates as well...

@Muad'Dick Now that's interesting, mixing the 'Doof Doof' from Eastenders with the drums from 'In The Air Tonight'... it actually might work!

A faggot finds it attractive. A smooth belly is not a belly button fetish. And yes, finding a woman's figure attractive is normal. Finding an arm pit attractive is not. They're specifically smelly and sweaty. An unhygienic part of the body.

Why would you shag your mattress.

Don't cum. Don't cum.. then little moe whacks Trevor with the iron and you're shooting rope to the drum beat. At least the wife was nice enough to let you shag her while she watched the soaps instead of got into petty fights with you while they're on. Got to look on the bright side.
