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.

The nudge unit is calling for common. I assure you that the family wants blood.

Here is the common sense the locals are adopting in response to the coppers being pro-shitskin.

I don't condone violence but if Britain is to survive this globalism niggery being forced on them they need to adopt more tactics from the IRA and make their slogan Ourselves Alone.

Otherwise they're fucked.

I'm now fretting because I used to help clean the church with my grandma as a kid, and they had bats. I remember sweeping up little poo pellets from the choir carpet.

You will be fine, that’s a long time ago.
ETA: Good grief, let the mum with the pushchair get past before you go chucking molotovs, lad!

About two and a half decades, but you don't have to rub it in!

Is there more info on this? Location, time, etc?

Not that I could easily find. I suspect it happened within the last 24 hours and the press might be keeping to quiet while they hunt down the patriots who took a stand against the bent coppers. I do believe it is footage from this latest protest related to the Punjabber murderer and not from some older incident.

Solid 6/10, they should have had people waiting to jump them after they bailed from the car, maybe a nearby car could have played Frogger or something. Good effort, nice to see them shake the rust off, yadda yadda.

If they've hit the "firebomb the fuckers" stage then I hate to see what Keir Starmer does when he realizes he's not going to be allowed to just arrest random whites upset that they're being ethnically cleansed until things simmer down and go back to bumfucking brown rentboys until 2029. Do we see them shut down their internet and mobile phone services to try and stop this?

The patriots will get more efficient in their tactics the longer this goes on and the harder the coppers try and suppress their very understandable rage about white replacement.

I'm not well versed in British politics but I have a hunch these restore Britain chaps might have a legit chance since they're the only ones truly pro-remigration. But God help them if they get elected and then turn heel like many other anti-immigration politicians have been doing recently.

Natives have a right to preserve their communities and cultures.

I can't believe that petrol suddenly decided to ignite that man. We're going to need to have a serious discussion about banning petrol.

Nah mate that was the bottles fault. Glass bottles are naturally unstable, only a matter of time til it threw itself at a bobber. Deport all them radical glass bottles and everything will be right again.

5Pillars, who I posted about the other day as they were criticising Sadiq Kahn posting about London Pride (this weekend iirc) and been getting a lot of flak since they've gone mask off about how much they hate fags and have posted a guide on 'how to navigate pride month' (X) for Muslims living in the West . 5Pillars is getting a lot of 'if you don't like this you can leave' attitudes from leftists, who are still retarded to the actual problem here.

No white person should ever use the word "y'all"… niggas.

You must some low iq Euro or maybe an exceptionally retarded Yankee if you don’t see the irony in you using niggas instead of niggers in a comment saying I shouldn’t use a contraction originating from white southerners.

I’m pressing X to doubt on this one, it looks about 10 years old.

"Oh god that cop's on fire"

"Nah I don't think he is mate"


The traitors are going to hate, absolutely hate, that an organ of their state gave such a pithy, memeable reply to a diversity victim dying for the multicultural fantasy.

I seem to remember that this was a scene bing shot for a film or TV programme, not a real life event. I think it is at least a year old.

Trying to find the details now.

It DEFINITELY did not happen within the last 24 hours.

It’s definitely “wardrobe” with the fancy pram and that. TV show. Agitprop.

Niggas or niggers, same thing?

"There is conflicting popular opinion on whether there is any meaningful difference between nigga and nigger as a spoken term. Many people consider the terms to be equally pejorative, and the use of nigga both in and outside black communities remains controversial. H. Lewis Smith, author of Bury that Sucka: A Scandalous Affair with the N-word, believes that "replacing the 'er' with an 'a' changes nothing other than the pronunciation" and the African American Registry notes, "Brother (Brotha) and Sister (Sistah or Sista) are terms of endearment. Nigger was and still is a word of disrespect." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People [NAACP], a civil rights group, condemns use of both nigga and nigger."
