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.

Homosexual behavior ain't the same as being homosexual.

ALso, LOL at the zoo's reaction to penguins stealing the offspring of others being "They choose now to live as gay penguins".

Just leave the little fag penguins along. They're not political actors.

They can't do that! Knives are illegal!

Hang in there, little dude/dudette.

And yet violence against women keeps fucking happening in your city.

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

Yep. I'm mad. Don't even need to read the article, headline is good enough.

It takes a real microdick faggot to stab a pregnant woman.

Just unreasonably, fuck-ass mad.

The United Kingdom is Europe's ghetto. I'm just surprised the ambulance didn't just leave the dying infant in a trash can.

 

[Arm Pit Cream]

I wonder where the father is? Should have been protecting his pregnant wife.

 

[Sexy Senior Citizen]

Damn those Buddhists! Always with their knife attacks!

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

Damn those Buddhists! Always with their knife attacks!

No shit, I actually heard people calling Buddhists terrorists for fighting Muslim insurgencies. You would never hear that description in the inverse scenario. When did it become politically incorrect to call jihadists terrorists? Even the people who swore to no-murder have fucksnapped because of mudslimes.

Islam is shitting it up but London has always been a violent shithole run by moral busybodies.

Buddhism has always been violent. Tibetan Buddhism enabled a literal slave society and Mahayana Buddhism had warrior monks. The most feared warriors of the Sengoku Jidai were Monks and the most elite soldiers of South Vietnam's army were monks.

Nobunaga tried to take a Monk fortress but gave up - he lit the mountain on fire and took the karma/honor penalty.

 

[Slimy Time]

Given that they didn't publish the name of a guy who has already committed murder, it's probably a Muslim man or African.
Some additional information.

Croyden, another area to stay the hell away from. They arrested another guy for allegedly being involved in the killing.

 

[PastryWitch]

OK so which one are you thinking of?

There are a few tiny islands in oceania. Pohnpei made their gays crossdress and change their names. There is another island that had sissy boys do housework and act as surrogate aunts when they got older. They also had to crossdress.

Haha dude it's fine it's just like a parasite anyway

I am slightly angry.

Nah you're wrong tweeting about the problem fixes it instantly the immigrants will read the tweet and think twice about attacking a woman

 

[Wraith]

"Baby"?
* angry feminist noises *
Still I hope the kid lives so little dude / dudette can avenge their mom.

 

[Poiseon]

You should get your fucking head stomped American history X style for attacking a pregnant woman. The people who did this are muslims, no doubt about it. She probably told them to fuck off after they informed her wearing a hijab is mandatory in the Caliphate.

I really am happy to be American. We aren't in the British commonwealth, or the EU. We can watch it burn down around them. Only real problem I foresee is the nuclear armed sand-nigger states of Europe being our enemy in fifty years. It'll be our problem.

What do you think will happen first?

The woke admitting that a lot of 3rd world migrants are shitty people, or making lobotomies mandatory so that the public can't use pattern recognition to judge migrants?
