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.

Any bets on how long it will take for these bogs to be vandalised?

Also can a mod get rid of the poll at the top of the thread? I'm unable to.

Let me guess fatasses won't be able to use them because of "weight sensitive floors."
 
WHEN BRITAIN DIED
Welcome to Sharia.


In the words of Maulana Syed Raza Rizvi, an eminent preacher in the city, “London is more Islamic than many Muslim countries put together.” Yes, that London, as in the home of red buses and posh accents. The "traditional" picture of London has been replaced with a more worrying one. According to Giulio Meotti, a researcher at the Gatestone Institute, by 2020, “estimates are that the number of Muslims attending prayers will reach at least 683,000, while the number of Christians attending weekly Mass will drop to 679,000.” Next year, Islam looks likely to be the dominant religion in the capital.

Demographically, the Britain of today is very different from the Britain of the '90s and early '00s; the most common name in England and Wales is now Mohammed, including spelling variations such as Muhammad and Mohammad.

Outside of London and Birmingham, other major cities have huge Muslim populations: Manchester (15.8%) and Bradford (24.7%). In the latter city, half the children are Muslim. The cultural, demographic and religious revolution in which Christianity declines and Islam advances is almost complete. The future of the UK is one rooted in burqas and strict interpretations of Islam

In April of this year, in an article titled "4 Reasons Why London is The Worst," Maria Ebele had this to say: "London has the reputation of one of the greatest cities in the world. But I’ll let you in on a secret: if you ever want to make friends with a Brit who is not from London, casually drop in conversation that London isn’t your most favourite place in the world. Then sit back and watch. Most likely, you’ll see his or her eyes light up with glee at the opportunity to rip into the nation’s capital."
The author has a point. Over the past couple of years, more than 340,000 people have moved away from London amid rising levels of knife crime, according to reports. Extortionate property prices and poor air quality are also cited as reasons for people choosing to leave the capital and set up a new life elsewhere in the UK. Obviously, people want a better quality of life; also, people would prefer not to get stabbed.
However, could there be another reason for the mass exodus?
I ask this because London is acquiring an increasingly Islamic face.

As Meotti notes, since 2001, more than 500 London churches of all denominations have been turned into private homes. During the same period, British mosques have been proliferating. The proportion of Britons who identify themselves as Anglicans continues to fall, while, according to a NatCen Social Research Institute report, the number of Muslims continues to grow by the thousands. As Jean Patrick Gunberg laments, “Churchgoers are declining at a rate that within a generation, their number will be three times lower than that of Muslims who go regularly to mosque on Friday.”
Of course, Islamification doesn’t occur in a vacuum. In Birmingham, the second largest city in the UK, an Islamic minaret dominates the skyline. The "City of a Thousand Trades" has a huge Muslim population (22%). There have been petitions to allow mosques to place loudspeakers throughout the city. Why? To call people to prayer three times a day.
Imagine this occurring in Los Angeles, the second largest city in the U.S.

An exaggeration? I think not.
As Innes Bowen noted in a piece for The Spectator, of the some 1,700 mosques in Britain, only two - yes, two - now follow the modernist interpretation of Islam. The Wahhabis control many mosques throughout the land. Call it what you will, "ultraconservative," "austere," "fundamentalist," or "puritan," but Wahhabism is premised on an abhorrent doctrine.
Worryingly, major British cities are full of sharia courts. London, for example, has over 100. How did this happen?
According to the aforementioned Giotti, “The advent of this parallel judicial system has been made possible thanks to the British Arbitration Act and the system of Alternative Dispute Resolution. These new courts are based on the rejection of the inviolability of human rights: the values of freedom and equality that are the basis of English Common Law.”
Acquiescence bordering on capitulation has also played a role. Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, and Chief Justice Lord Phillips have previously suggested that British law should "incorporate" elements of sharia law – you know, the law based on the religious precepts of Islam, not the actual law that civilized societies in the west recognize.
British universities have also acquiesced. Take a quick look at the report titled "external speakers in higher education institutions," published by Universities in the UK. There you will read that "orthodox religious groups" may separate men and women during events. As The Daily Mail reported, females at Queen Mary University of London had to use a separate entrance and were told to sit in a room without being able to ask questions or even raise their hands. Remember, this took place in London, not Lahore.
According to reporters at The Telegraph, the Islamic Society at the London School of Economics held a particularly notable gala. Here, like livestock in a shed, women and men were separated by a seven-meter panel.
This should worry us all, especially those of us who care about the UK as a bastion of civilized values.
 
Meanwhile, in Birmingham, in the country once known as England, Paki's fight each other in the street. something to do with a family feud over a wedding, probably over a child bride.

This is so accurate though, it hurts.

I had been going to London since the early 00s for tourism & tennis tournaments, and it felt like such a great place to live. The streets were clean, the people were nice... I legit dreamed of someday studying & living there.

Then came uni time, and guess what? I ended up in London, as I wanted. And having come back to that shithole, I realised, just how bad it had gotten in under 10 years.

We had some pakis living in government housing on the same street as our student residence, and they used to literally beat their wives out in public in the evenings, and throw shoes at them and shit.

Right outside the tube, you had some bearded islamists proselytising and giving out free Q’ran brochures and what not. Every fucking morning. And that was 15 minutes out of central London on the Victoria line.
I shudder just to remember the looks and catty comments they were giving me every fucking time, what with my “Western” mini skirts and whatnot.

Anyways. There was just garbage everywhere on the streets, so many puke puddles in the evenings, and you were basically stuck between raging trannies and queers in nightclubs and the tube at night, or else hardcore Muslims on the way back to your student residence.

It’s actually the Pakis or whatever shithole country they hailed from that kept loitering right outside the tube that dissuaded me from going out at night. Like, in between the comments, the looks, the yelling, and the general “we could rape you right here and there, and no one would care” vibes, it was pretty frightening.

Anyways, if you’re ever in London and live somewhere outside Fitzrovia or any other “good” neighbourhood, even if it’s right next to the City center, just take cabs.
Or better yet, don’t come to that shithole at all.
 
We gonna talk about Royal Paedogeddon?

Prince Andrew (alive) - pally with Epstein, even after his first conviction/ woman claims to have been made to sleep with him at 14 (judge didn't believe her)/ somehow now even worse than Prince Edward

Lord Mountbatten (blown to bits in 1979) - shipped off to be Top White Guy in India for unknown reasons/ not very repressed gay tendencies / assassinated by boat bomb by IRA / alleged by some to have been grooming teenage boys inc. the local Irish "boat boy" (also died in 1979 bombing)

Edited to emphasise allegations not proven.

Can't find anything from the mother, my apologies (will edit my post) but here is a speculative blog post

 

Fuck off.

I've just been sniggering slightly over one of their stories linked to that because she's a teacher that swears in front of her pupils. She's from Birmingham, so I can guess the ethnicity of the rapist.

'Rape triggered my Tourette's'



And she's a dyke.
 

Fuck off.
I don't know what's worse: that the joke is so painfully unfunny outside of later context, that it was voted top joke of a comedy event, that people decided to randomly complain to an unrelated a charity, that the charity escalated the complaints, that BBC decided the whole matter is article-worthy.... Britain can't sink fast enough.

Yep, you're right.

  • Ex-footballer Andrew Akingbaje, 24, repeatedly punched woman in the head
  • He viciously beat Krystal Mission, 21, in the head in early hours of New Year's Day
  • Attack came after row over queue-jumping outside south London nightclub
  • Akingbaje was jailed for 32 months after pleading guilty to the assault

A thug who repeatedly punched a woman in the head before dragging her along the pavement by her hair in a sickening attack assault has been jailed for more than two years.
Promising footballer Andrew Akingbaje, 24, was branded 'dangerous to women' at Inner London Crown Court after admitting the attack on 21-year-old Krystal Mission outside a south London nightclub in the early hours of New Year's Day 2019.
The brutal assault was caught on camera and footage showed shocked revellers watching on as the former footballer rained down punches on Miss Mission before fleeing the scene.

The fracas kicked off due to a 'queue-jumping' row between Miss Mission and her friends and a group of women wearing blue wigs, who later approached Akingbaje before the assault.
Miss Mission told the court she now suffers panic attacks and says she has been too frightened to go out in London since.
Patricia May, prosecuting, told the court that Miss Mission was out for New Year's Eve with three of her friends.
She said: 'They were queueing up when some females distinguished by wearing blue wigs barged into the queue and then accused Krystal and her friends of having pushed in.
'Everyone went into the club and there was no trouble in the club, but there came a time about 3am when Krystal and her friend were in the bathroom when one of the women in blue wigs came in and threatened them.
Footballer repeatedly punches woman in the head in vicious attack.

'It's at that point that they decided that they should go but the blue wigs group came out to them, accosted them outside the premises, and by the conclusion were apparently trying to provoke them.
'The girls were having none of that. One went to call a cab and in the meantime the blue wigs group got into a black range rover and Krystal and her friend walked back towards the bar.
'It was at that point when they were crossing the road when the defendant came up and punched Krystal several times causing her to fall to the ground.
'Her friends tried to rescue her, but in the course of fending them off he hit both of them as well and then dragged Krystal along the ground.'

Ms May added: 'It was at that stage when she managed to get up from the ground and get herself upright when somebody, who turned out to be a street warden who was mistaken for a bouncer, saw the aftermath of this, grabbed hold of her, thinking that he was protecting her.
'It was by this stage that the defendant and the blue wigs group again came up to Krystal and it was a this time that the friend started recording on her phone.
'While she was being held the defendant handed his mobile phone to another person then came right up to her as she was being held and punched her very viciously on the face several times.'
The attack left Miss Mission with bruises on her face and arms along with grazes in her legs.

She was taken to hospital where doctors thought she might have concussion so gave her advice before sending her home.
In a statement read by Ms May, the victim said: 'My face took a couple of weeks to heal. It hurt to put my clothing on. For the first couple of weeks it hurt when I bathed.
'I was upset for a week constantly. I would break down into tears. If someone brought it up to me I would get very upset and cry.
'I would have flashbacks that mimicked him hitting me that would wake me up.
'I had a panic attack when I went out the next time. I have not been out in London since.'
The 15 second video went viral after Miss Mission posted it to social media in a bid to trace her attacker.
Akingbaje previously pleaded guilty to one count of ABH having disputed some facts, claiming he had been provoked and spat on by the victim.
The father-of-one, from Brixton, previously played for non-league Peckham Town and had trials at Accrington Stanley.
Mitigating, Bethany Condron said: 'He accepts that there were two assaults and he accepts responsibility for them.'
Two other counts of assault by beating against two of Miss Mission's friend were ordered to lie in file.
Sentencing Akingbaje to 32 months in prison, Judge Mark Bishop branded him a danger to women.

The judge said Akingbaje had previously claimed he was not responsible for Miss Mission's injuries and said she had spat at and attacked him.
Judge Bishop added: 'You then confirmed in open court that you were pleading guilty in a full facts basis, in other words that you were not maintaining your previous plea.
'However, in a pre-sentence report after that I read that you were maintaining to the probation officer that same version of events minimising your culpability.
'That demonstrates a continuing lack of insight into your continuing violent behaviour towards a woman.'
Akingbaje also had previous convictions for drugs and domestic abuse and was handed an 18-month jail sentence for wounding his partner in 2017.
The judge added: 'The writer of the pre-sentence report says that you are dangerous in the meaning of the law, there was an emerging pattern of violence - particularly towards women.
'I'm satisfied that you do pose a serious risk, particularly towards women. You are dangerous to women, in my judgement'

Niggers + alcohol + London nightclub + blue wigs = OTT street violence.
 
Huge pile of manure dumped outside country pub with sign stuck in it saying : THE LANDLORD IS FUCKING MY WIFE

A large pile of manure was apparently dumped outside a country pub with foul-mouthed signs accusing the married landlord of having an affair.
Police last night launched an investigation into the heap of dung, which was decorated with hand-written signs accusing the pub's landlord and chef, Simon Emberley, of cheating on his partner.
Five placards stuck into the two-metre wide pile read "the landlord is fucking my wife". It was left outside the award-winning Hawkley Inn overnight and was so wide it caused delays for motorists trying to pass through the village.
Mr Emberley yesterday denied the allegations, claiming the manure and messages were a smear campaign against him and were 'unfounded and untrue'. He added that he was stunned to discover the manure and insisted he and his wife had no idea who dumped it.
Speaking from his pub, Mr Emberley said: "All I know is I turned up for work at 7.30 this morning, and there was a big pile of shit in the road.
"I don't know where it's come from or who has done it, but something like this can turn somebody's life upside down.
"Whoever has done it is trying to ruin our business."
He added: "It is unfounded and untrue."

Mr and Mrs Emberley appeared to try and make light of the incident yesterday afternoon by placing a sign outside the pub reading: "Limited Offer! Free local horse manure donated by generous supplier."

One resident on the quiet country road said his brother heard a vehicle pull up outside the pub at around midnight yesterday. The pile was quickly cleaned up by workmen and washed away with a hosepipe.
Police yesterday launched an investigation into the 'malicious communications' written onto the five signs stuck into the heap.
The pub is described as a 'jewel' on its website, which 'nestles in an area of outstanding natural beauty' and attracts those 'drawn to the beautiful views of its South Downs National Park location, its selection of seven real ales, and its fresh, locally sourced seasonal menu'.
Less than a fortnight ago, the pub boasted of its successes on Twitter following a positive review in a Sunday newspaper, in which it was said the chef's 'hand-raised steak and kidney pies will fuel hours of exploration'.
The Hawkley Inn has also been recognised by Trip Advisor, Trivago and the AA for its food and service.
A spokeswoman for Hampshire police said: "We can confirm we are investigating an allegation of malicious communications following an incident in which offensive signage was placed outside a pub in Liss.

"The five placards were placed in a pile of manure that had also been dumped outside the Hawkley Inn in Pococks Lane.
"It is believed they had been placed there overnight between 10.30pm on August 18 and the following morning."



This story, involving the smashing of a few windows was heavily reported on the news because it was a mosques windows that were smashed & this was automatically reported as being a crime that only the far-right would commit.
They even wheeled out some talking heads to spin "the rise of the far-right" rhetoric & white nationalism was mentioned along with Brexit related hate crime, Islamophobia, racism, etc. & I'm sure Tommy was blamed too, even Boris's niqab/letterbox comments were brought up. Al-Beeb were creaming themselves over this, which wouldn't even be newsworthy if it was my house windows that were broken.

But ... the smasher was also a Muslim, so probably a Shia/Sunni related thing but I'm sure it'll be eventually blamed on mental health.

Man charged after five Birmingham mosques 'had windows smashed' in a single night
Arman Rezazadeh, aged 34 and from Handsworth, charged with religiously aggravated criminal damage

A Birmingham man has been charged with religiously aggravated criminal damage after five mosques had their windows smashed in a single night.
Three Aston mosques - the Witton Islamic Centre, Witton Road, the Al-Habib Trust, off Birchfield Road and the Jamia Masjid Ghausia, on Albert Road - were allegedly attacked on the evening of March 20 into the morning of March 21, this year.

Windows were also smashed at the Masjid Madrassa Faizul Islam, off the Broadway in Perry Barr , and the Jam-E-Masjid Qiblah Hadhrat Sahib Gulhar Shareef, off Slade Road, Erdington.

Arman Rezazadeh, aged 34, from Greenhill Road, Handsworth, was originally detained under the Mental Health Act .
He has since been deemed fit to face court and today (August 20) was charged with religiously aggravated criminal damage.
He will appear before Birmingham Magistrates on September 12.
