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.

They charge a grand a week if you’ve worked all your life until your assets are gone and treat you like dirt for the privilege.
It's a fucking disgrace elder care,along with hospice care isn't covered by the welfare state. This said the breakdown in traditional family home and networks because of geographical mobility is the root cause of this.

The pakis and browns however, can and do look after their aged relatives (I'll begrudgingly admit this is something they get right) and if they can do it,so should we.

One thing that chapped my arse over our neighbour was this: she was in the last week,dying. Clearly so. And her family, who are all local,sent her to a care home instead. Had it been me, I would have told work I needed time off and moved in with her until the end, like I did with my gran in the few weeks before she passed.

It's unconscionable to me to do this to a loved one. I can't understand it.

>"adoptive father"
>look inside
>it's two gay men

Fuck you BBC.

Eta:
This has particularly fucked me off because I let miladdo watch iPlayer earlier and when I walked in he was watching some new show called "Rafi the Wishing Wizard" which is yet another BBC show (the other one being "Vida the Vet") where the main character has "two
dads". These are shows on Cbeebies for fucks sake. STOP pushing that gay shit on kids.
The Telegraph's coverage of this story made me sick. These monsters deserve nothing but a death sentence!!!
 
Here's the full story, if anyone can stomach it:

Baby taken in by gay couple died after torture and sexual abuse, court told​

Prosecution claims infant was smothered or choked at home less than four months after being placed with proposed adoptive parents

A 13-month-old baby was “routinely physically and sexually abused” by his proposed adoptive gay parents before being murdered by one of them, a court has heard.

A post mortem examination revealed he had suffered at least 40 traumatic injuries during his time in the defendants’ care, Mr Wright explained.

The jury was told the injuries included at least 30 external bruises, internal bruising to his mouth and throat, internal bruising to his bottom, bowel and bladder, lacerations to his rectum and a fractured arm.

A 13-month-old baby was “routinely physically and sexually abused” by his proposed adoptive gay parents before being murdered by one of them, a court has heard.

Preston Davey was placed with Jamie Varley and John McGowan-Fazakerley in April 2023 when he was nine months old.

Less than four months later, he was taken to A&E in a state of cardiac arrest and pronounced dead a short time later.

A jury at Preston Crown Court was told the cause of death had been an obstruction to his airway, either by smothering or having something placed in his mouth that prevented him from breathing.



Mr Varley, a former high school teacher, is accused of murdering Preston at their home in Blackpool on July 27, 2023.

He is also accused of sexual assault, cruelty, grievous bodily harm, assault by penetration, taking indecent images of a child and distributing an indecent image.

Mr McGowan-Fazakerley, his partner and co-accused, was not at home when Preston was allegedly killed.

He is charged with allowing the death of a child, cruelty to a child and the sexual assault of a child.

Mr Varley, wearing a cream suit, open-necked white shirt and shoulder-length hair with blond streaks, sat beside his co-accused, wearing a green top and jeans, in the dock, metres from Preston’s mother in the public gallery.

On the opening day of their trial Peter Wright KC, prosecuting, told the jury it would be a “highly emotionally charged case”.

He said: “Preston Davey was born on June 16 2022. In April 2023, then aged nine months, he was placed with the defendants Jamie Varley and John McGowan-Fazakerley with a view to him being formally adopted by them.



“At the time of these events, the defendants were living together as a couple at an address in Blackpool.

“Less than four months later at around 6.30pm on the afternoon of Thursday July 27, 2023, Preston Davey was brought to the accident and emergency department of Blackpool Victoria Hospital by the defendants.

“Preston Davey was unconscious and in a state of cardiac arrest. By now, he was aged just 13 months. Despite the best efforts of the medical staff on duty at the hospital, Preston Davey was in terminal decline and at 7.18pm, he was pronounced dead.”

Mr Wright went on: “As terrible as it is, this tragedy was not the result of some dreadful yet unforeseen accident or natural phenomenon … we say the evidence demonstrates that he was murdered by one of the people entrusted with his wellbeing, one of his proposed adoptive parents.

“We say the person responsible for killing Preston Davey was the defendant, Jamie Varley.”

At least 40 traumatic injuries​

The jury was told that in the four months that Preston had lived with the defendants, he had been ill-treated physically and psychologically as well as being sexually abused.

“After he was placed for adoption with the defendants and residing with them in Blackpool he was admitted to Blackpool Victoria on three occasions,” Mr Wright said.

A post mortem examination revealed he had suffered at least 40 traumatic injuries during his time in the defendants’ care, Mr Wright explained.

The jury was told the injuries included at least 30 external bruises, internal bruising to his mouth and throat, internal bruising to his bottom, bowel and bladder, lacerations to his rectum and a fractured arm.

The prosecutor said the person principally responsible for the sexual and physical assaults was Mr Varley but there was also evidence that implicated both defendants in an earlier sexual assault of Preston as well as neglect.

The court was told that Mr McGowan-Fazakerley was at work on the day Preston was allegedly fatally assaulted.

Mr Wright said the prosecution’s case was that he should have known the danger the baby was in but he failed to protect him.

‘Indecent images of Preston’​

The court heard that when Mr Varley’s mobile phone was seized, a number of indecent images of Preston were allegedly recovered.

Mr Wright said they were not the usual type of snaps taken by a doting parent and explained that some of the pictures had been shared with Mr McGowan-Fazakerley.

The jury was told there was also a recording that showed Preston left seemingly unattended, slithering around uncontrollably in the bath for 14 minutes without any adult intervention.

Mr Varley is also accused of deliberately depriving the baby of sleep and violently spinning him around on a child’s playground roundabout, leaving him feeling disorientated.

Mr Varley denies murder and an alternative charge of manslaughter, two counts of assault by penetration, five counts of cruelty to a child, grievous bodily harm, sexual assault of a child, 13 counts of taking indecent photos or videos of a child, one of distributing an indecent photo of a child to his co-accused and one of making an indecent photo.

Mr McGowan-Fazakerley denies allowing the death of a child, three counts of child cruelty and one count of the sexual assault of a child.

The trial continues.

Not to imply they're all leeches but in some instances they more or less have to.

You see if they bring a family member from abroad, and then get said family member a prescription in the UK, then that family member—who would have to pay for their medication back home—is now given indefinite leave to remain in the UK because they'd be "deprived" of medical care back home. This is a faster route to citizenship since if you can fenangle a prescription for some bullshit from the NHS, then argue the need to remain for humanitarian reasons, you can stay in the country and claim benefits in faster time than it would take to apply for citizenship the normal way.

Fully agree on sending parents and grandparents to care homes. Good on you for living with your grand for her last few weeks.
 
Here's the full story, if anyone can stomach it:
I would strongly advise against reading the details, it is devastating

What I wonder is, what was their long term plan? How long did they think a one year old baby could survive the shit they were doing? They'd already had to take him to hospital at least once, and there were clearly other bad incidents based on the dropped 999 call, so they knew they were really harming him. What did they think was going to happen, long term?
It's not like they were 2 junkies living rough, they had careers, property, reputations: they had a lot to lose. And they didn't find the baby under a bramble bush, he was legally adopted, there was a paper trail and he would have been on the radar of social services, so questions would have been asked eventually. I just don't understand how they thought this was going to play out.
Anyway, I hope they are tortured to death.

Because it has probably been done to them, and sodomy and abuse is how they reproduce.

It's why it also seems to override all logic and reason, making them commit crimes in the most obvious way possible.

If faggots were "careful" then they would cease to exist.

I just find it really hard to understand their reasoning. If you do those things to a baby, the baby will sustain injuries and need treatment. Eventually, doctors and nurses will ask how a baby who cannot walk yet is sustaining traumatic injuries to his anus and bowel (although of course, they will hesitate if you're a member of a sacred caste, quite possibly until it's too late and the baby is dead). Even leaving aside how demonic you must be to want to do those things in the first place, I don't understand the willingness to absolutely destroy your entire life for the sake of a sexual thrill. It's literal insanity.

It's why a lot of people, including me, think it's a genetic thing that could be culled out of humanity if we had balls.

It's very similar to how parasites can make rat attracted to the smell of cat piss for the sole purpose of getting eaten by them so the parasites can go to the cat. Gay people are no different, especially with AIDS.
 
So it seems Starmer has bottled the emergency debate on the mandy affair this afternoon. I expected him to squeak through until may 7 to justify his exit with the locals, but I dont think hes going to last the week now.
 
Just heard they're banning smoking for people born after 2007. I've seen a fair bit of pushback on it but honestly I'm the opposite, I think that we should strip all fun from people born after 2007 and shoot them in the head if they complain.

But in all seriousness, I think it's insane that the very same generation who criticised boomers for having a better life than they did and deliberately went "I'm not going to let that happen to my kids"... ended up being even worse than the boomers. There's a distinct difference between "I lived a better life than you" and "I'm going to make things worse for you for your own benefit" and if I'm a 13 year old growing up in modern Britain, I wouldn't just hate the late 80s/90s generation, I'd want them to fucking die in a horrifying way.
 
The insane thing about the immigration argument is that if we literally only accepted women (no children) then everyone would be happy. We wouldn't recieve men from third world countries who treat women as rape objects, and ugly, uneducated women will fit right in in the care sector.
There’s a good point to be made in your post, and that’s the demographic reality of the immigration the UK has suffered from.

I remember checking on the gov website a couple of years ago, and according to their figures - up to you whether you choose to trust them - something like 78% of the over a million people that came to the UK in 2023 were male.

This is demographically devastating for a number of reasons, and the politicians that have hand waved this shit away - let alone encouraged it - must be tried for treason.
I think I can safely assume you've never had an elderly relative "cared" for in a hospital or residential home by lazy, resentful African women who have taken anti-white propaganda to heart.
I’ve heard of an increasing number of shellshocked looking elderly or mentally disabled native people being wheeled or escorted round town by sub-saharan ‘carers’ in the last few years.

I mean granted, I was being a little facecious, but it's such a silly situation to be in where extreme misogyny is on the rise, yet nobody is brave enough to ask "which demographics?", as if the sudden rise of sub-saharan men and genuine fucking retards from um-bongoland who came here because England has the white girls like they see in extreme porn, aren't doing anything towards that. I don't want women or children either, but at the VERY LEAST you'd think that a straight ban on men would at least be the most easily obtainable and would see an instant reduction in crime.

In other news, I was blessed by two fantastic once in a lifetime encounters today, and I blame my post before. The first being a full blown drooling screaming retard of adult age doing the weird toddler cry, being dragged by two (guess the nationality) carers who were entirely out of their depth. The second being an extremely fat black schoolgirl who was straight up wobbling from side to side with every step, she's well on the way to becoming another useless fucking carer if she manages to make it to 25 without a life altering stroke.
 
then get said family member a prescription in the UK
Yea as if the nhs waiting lists aren't longer than the immigration waiting lists. Go try get an appointment and your home country will have started and ended a dozen wars before anyone sees you.
We’re gonna have our own version of bootlegging with e scooters aren’t we?
Fucking hell got to apply for a yeast license now. Would be a shame if you could harvest yeast from fucking literally anything and ferment just table sugar with it. No officer I'm not brewing beer look here's the flour and here's the butter it's just bread I promise.

Nobody asked for this, it's just an excuse to introduce another system to control purchases.
Think about it. How do you legally verify if a customer was born before 2009? How do you do it online?
 
As a voter who is increasinly comfortable embracing his growing enthusiasm for racism I find the below tweet to be music to my ears.

Imagine an updated "Labour isnt working" poster, but instead of a line of unemployed British people, its a snake of dusky delivery drivers, doctors, engineers and their retarded children. Just the text "Millions must go". Would be utter dynamite and it would get my vote.

I know this thread is missing its daily Reform shilling, so i thought i'd bring a bit of that energy back.
If Reform have actually stated that removal of illegal women is off the table, then they're tacitly saying that they're removing no-one. Every illegal male will magically turn out to be nikkah-married to an illegal female and claim the right to family life or whatever the fuck it's called, and there you go: what a shame, no-one can be deported, guess we're stuck with them after all, haha.
What grotty, lying cunts they are if this is really where they stand. I wonder how far they think they can push people before there's a reaction.
