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.

Jailed for a total of 20 years for doing nothing of value award
Guardian seething

A judge has imposed lengthy custodial sentences on four Palestine Action activists who smashed up drones and other equipment at an Israeli arms manufacturer’s UK factory after ruling that there was a “terrorist connection” to their offending.

Charlotte Head, 30, and Leona Kamio, 30, were each jailed for five years and Fatema Rajwani, 21, was sentenced to four years and 8 months for criminal damage in relation to a 2024 break-in at the Elbit Systems UK site in Gloucestershire. Samuel Corner, 23, who was additionally convicted of grievous bodily harm without intent for striking Sgt Kate Evans with a sledgehammer, was sentenced to seven years and eight months. Each will also spend an additional year on licence and be subject to 15 years of terrorist notification requirements.

A report relied on by the prosecution at Friday’s sentencing hearing said the raid on the factory had caused £1.2m of damage, including to 41 military assets. The report referred to £395,056 of damage to six units in an unnamed drone system as well as damage to other unmanned aerial vehicles.

Mr Justice Johnson told the four they had participated in a “carefully planned and highly sophisticated attack”, adding: “The fact that you were trying to shut down a company that you thought was acting unlawfully does not reduce the seriousness of the offence.”

He said Corner had shown no remorse and had used “extreme and gratuitous force against a vulnerable police officer who was acting in the course of her duties”.

Announcing his finding of a “terrorist connection” under section 69 of the Sentencing Act, ahead of deciding on the sentences, Johnson said: “I am sure that each defendant’s offence of criminal damage involved serious damage to property, was designed to intimidate the UK government and a section of the public [Elbit employees and those of other businesses linked to Elbit] and was for the purpose of advancing a political or ideological cause.”

Representing Head, Rajiv Menon KC had told Johnson that it was unprecedented for the prosecution to apply for a judge to sentence a defendant as a terrorist for a non-violent offence. Menon said it was “an invitation to chilling, creeping authoritarianism that undermines the very fabric of our society”.

In written arguments, Mira Hammad KC, representing Kamio, said the defendants had initially been arrested on suspicion of involvement in acts of terrorism but not charged with those offences “showing that a deliberate decision was taken not to submit the crown’s case [that there was terrorism] to the arbitrament of a jury …[therefore] the court should not allow the crown to use [section 69] as a vehicle for enhancing sentence in circumstances where it has determined that a conviction for the same offence by the jury is unlikely”.

Tom Wainwright KC, representing Corner, said a terrorist connection finding against the defendants would also mean the suffragettes, the Greenham Common women and the Trident Ploughshares movement were terrorists. “It’s wrong for someone to be sentenced for a more serious offence of which they have not been convicted,” he added.

After the terrorist connection finding Menon wept while speaking of Head’s character. Wainwright said of the destruction of drones: “They may have been involved in taking the lives of men, women and children in Gaza. That is why they acted. That’s something that – in a sane world – would be commended.”

The terrorist connection finding means the four will have to serve at least two-thirds of their sentences for criminal damage in prison.

Reading her witness statement, Evans, occasionally crying, said: “The overall impact of this incident has been profound and long-lasting,” she told the court. “It has affected my physical health, mental wellbeing, confidence, career and family life. I am not the same person I was before this happened, I feel my personality has changed.”

During the trial, Corner said he panicked after being pepper sprayed and acted to protect a co-defendant he believed was being seriously hurt.

Approximately 500 protesters gathered outside Woolwich crown court in south-east London, including some holding placards that read “Saving lives is not terrorism. I support Palestine Action”. More than 100 people were arrested for allegedly supporting Palestine Action, which remains proscribed under the Terrorism Act pending the court of appeal’s judgment on Monday on the lawfulness of the ban.

Speaking of ther's a similar one onegoing in Germany with citizens from here so it counts as British news

Controversy has broken out in Germany over the trial of five pro-Palestinian activists, who are charged with belonging to a criminal organisation and destroying about €1m (£870,000) worth of property at the site of an Israel-based defence firm in Germany's Ulm.
The case of the so-called Ulm 5 has sparked a debate in Germany - a long-standing supporter of Israel - about how to deal with pro-Palestinian protesters, and could set a precedent for the future.
The five activists, from the UK, Spain, Ireland and Germany, are being tried in a high-security court at Stammheim prison in Stuttgart and have been in pre-trial detention since September.
They are linked to Palestine Action Germany, and the prosecution and defence have clashed in court over whether they should be tried as members of a criminal organisation.
Public prosecutors argue that Palestine Action Germany constitutes a "criminal organisation" as the purpose of the activities was directed at committing "serious criminal offences". This legal basis has also been accepted in recent decisions taken in similar cases.
However, the activists' defence lawyers say the the main offence they have committed is property damage. They say the charges are disproportionate and their clients' "fair trial rights were being violated", an argument the prosecutors deny.
In September last year, the five activists broke into the Ulm premises of Elbit Systems, one of Israel's largest arms manufacturers, with branches in several countries including the UK. They were arrested shortly afterwards and posted videos of their actions on social media.
The activists can be seen wearing signs saying "Palestine Action" and shouting: "Germany finances, Elbit Systems produces, Israel bombs." The video also shows them spray-painting "Baby Killers" on the walls.


Prosecutors have accused them of smashing screens, PCs, sensitive measuring equipment, and electronic devices.
The five have also been charged with using symbols of Hamas, the Palestinian militant group, which is proscribed as a "terrorist organisation" in Germany.

Their court case at Stammheim prison was also the venue of a 1970s trial against militants from the deadly left-wing Red Army Faction, and their lawyers argue that gives the impression their clients are "dangerous individuals", and risks convicting them without a trial.
Prosecutors have told the BBC they did not request any "special detention conditions".
Other aspects of the case have also caused controversy.
The charge of membership of a criminal organisation comes under section 129 of the German Criminal Code which has become controversial in recent years.
Increasingly it has been used against protest movements such as climate group Last Generation, and Yasmin Khuder of Amnesty International finds it "highly problematic" in the Stammheim trial.

"This case creates a risk that measures actually intended to combat organised crimes are now being used against political protest," she said, arguing the five activists were exercising their freedom of expression under Germany's constitution.

The German case coincided with a UK trial earlier this month where four Palestine Action activists were convicted in the UK of criminal damage, after breaking into an Elbit Systems factory near Bristol in 2024.
There have been extensive protests in the UK by Palestine Action. In July 2025 it was proscribed as a terrorist group.
The break-in happened before that, and the activists were charged in relation to damage to property.
One of the activists was also found guilty of inflicting grievous bodily harm.
The ban is contested in the UK. In February, the High Court ruled that the terrorist group designation was unlawful, and the UK government is appealing against the decision.
Khuder said that the UK designation "applied explicitly to Palestine Action UK and had no international usage". She added: "We are also deeply concerned by the repeated references, in this case, to the UK ban within the German proceedings."


In 2023, the German government banned various slogans as "symbols of Hamas", and it has increasingly monitored pro-Palestine protesters, but it has not designated Palestine Action a terrorist organisation.
Although there have been some convictions in Germany over the use of banned phrases and symbols, in most cases the courts decide on an individual basis, as they were not banned by law.

The five have now been in custody for eight months, and activists and human rights groups have criticised the conditions at Stammheim. Their families say German authorities are trying to make an example of them.
Kit Tricks, whose 25-year-old sibling Crow Walt Tricks who is on trial, told the BBC Crow was alone in a cell for 22 hours a day.
"The UN considers [this] solitary confinement," said Tricks, insisting that Crow and the others had "not harmed anybody".
The Public Prosecutor's Office in Stuttgart told the BBC it had "not requested any special conditions of detention in these proceedings", and that the restrictions were standard under German law.
However Nicky Robertson, the mother of 25-year-old British citizen Hannah Hailu, known as Zo, said she was "absolutely disgusted and outraged" by the treatment of her daughter, especially when she was brought into court in handcuffs.

"What we are looking for is a fair trial," she said, "and what we have seen so far is not very fair."
Robertson is looking for support from the UK government, and says she has contacted her MP and written to the UK ambassador in Berlin. The British Embassy in Berlin confirmed that it was "providing support to two British nationals detained in Germany and was in contact with the local authorities".
Joel Crisetig, an analyst at Armed Conflict Location & Event Data says Germany's very different approach to the case stems from its Nazi past and a "never again" doctrine since the Holocaust in World War Two that has shaped its politics and society.
He pointed to former Chancellor Angela Merkel famous statement that "Israeli security is Germany's 'reason of state'", where Germany's government and society take special responsibility toward the State of Israel and the protection of Jewish life worldwide.
For these historical reasons "the pro-Palestinian movement is much weaker in Germany than countries like Britain or France", he said.
His research shows that in the past year Germany has had half as many pro-Palestinian demonstrations compared with its neighbour France, and significantly fewer than the UK.
Berlin's response to the pro-Palestinian movement and demonstrations is also "harsher" than other countries, Crisetig believes.
"These types of actions are very shocking to the German public, property destruction on an Israeli firm," he told the BBC. These factors had led to authorities taking the Ulm incident "as seriously as a terror case", Crisetig added.

The trial itself had a chaotic start in late April, with supporters of the five defendants chanting and shouting" Free Palestine"; defence lawyers refused to sit down, because their clients were behind glass.
The case continues, and if found guilty the Ulm 5 face up to five years in prison.

Janet and John book has had a trigger warning added in a museum (no, it's not a Wogan version).

A museum has issued a trigger warning over “outdated views” in a Janet and John children’s book.
The Black Country Living Museum (BCLM) allows visitors to immerse themselves in different historical periods, and recently expanded its timeframe to include post-Windrush decades in an effort to boost ethnic diversity.
A 1960s public library was built and stocked with contemporary reading material. Some books in the library were given trigger warnings.
Volumes such as a Janet and John book had a trigger warning inserted next to the illustrated title page about cultural attitudes deemed to be “wrong”.

The Janet and John book is intended as a reading aid and tells the story of the eponymous brother and sister playing with their dog.
The book’s plot follows the pair through similarly innocuous activities, but visitors flicking through the volume are warned: “This book may contain negative depictions of people or cultures, and outdated views.
“These depictions were wrong then and are wrong now.
“Rather than remove the book, we want to acknowledge its existence and impact, learn from it, and spark conversations to make for a more inclusive future.”
The book, first published in 1949, includes passages describing Janet and John looking at planes and speaking characteristically simple dialogue, such as “look at the airplane, I want to fly in it” and “the aeroplane can fly fast”.
A range of children’s titles have been given the same warning about potentially offensive content, as have a number of adult books, including copies of Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels.
The Telegraph revealed in 2023 that Bond spy thrillers had been edited with the help of sensitivity readers over concerns about racist language and attitudes in the popular works.

The BCLM has also inserted a warning in a copy of Murder at the Gallop by Agatha Christie, whose works were also edited recently to avoid offending modern readers, and a collection of short stories by HG Wells.
The memoirs by First and Second World War veterans, including The Road to En-dor by Elias Henry Jones, have also had warnings placed in them about outdated attitudes.
These books are among 6,000 in the collection of the Woodside Library, a new feature at the BCLM in Dudley, one of a family of immersive attractions.
These sites often focus on Victorian and Edwardian periods, but the BCLM expanded its scope to reflect British life from the 1940s to 1960s, decades of higher immigration that would allow displays and recreations to be made more diverse.
Visitors can now immerse themselves in the post-war period, which included the foundation of the NHS, the arrival of Caribbean migrants beginning with the HMT Empire Windrush, and the settlement of a South Asian diaspora.

New characters, played by actors, were introduced to reflect these social changes, including the 1950s figure Fitzroy Barrett, who informs visitors of his Jamaican heritage and the racism encountered in the UK.
An NHS midwife character Cicilyn Miller tells stories of her Jamaican heritage, while market trader Mr Singh will teach visitors about his Punjabi heritage.

Andrew Lovett, the chief executive of the museum, previously explained the expanded timeline, saying: “We felt that we needed to be more representative of life around us.
“We are in one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse bits of the country, and yet we would readily have admitted that the story we were telling previously wasn’t representative of the modern-day Black Country.”
The museum has been contacted for comment on the addition of warnings to its book collection.

Previous nonsense trigger warnings​

A 'loud bell'​

In August last year, the Royal Opera House put a trigger warning on the "loud" and "startling" curtain-up bell used to tell theatregoers to take their seats for a production.
Online listings for shows at the Covent Garden theatre state that the handheld bell “is loud and can be startling”.

'Problematic' 1984​

George Orwell’s estate added a preface on a new US edition of 1984 – the classic dystopian novel – warning modern readers that its protagonist, Winston Smith, was "problematic".
The introductory essay says they may find his views on women “despicable”.

A trigger warning about trigger warnings​

In June last year, Museum Development North, a heritage organisation, put a trigger warning on a new training manual about trigger warnings.
The body saw fit to tell readers that the document contained "potentially triggering content".

Archaelogists, beware human remains​

In 2022, archaeology students at the University of York were warned they would be exposed to images of “human remains”.
Those embarking on the university’s “mummification” module were told that lectures will contain images of dead bodies and human skeletal material.

They finally got around to evicting the First Lady of Sierra Leone from her council flat. No doubt the next occupant will be just as deserving.

A social housing flat rented by Sierra Leone’s first lady has been seized by a London council.

Southwark council confirmed it had repossessed the two-bedroom home in Walworth previously occupied by Fatima Jabbe-Bio, whose tenancy was reported by the Times last year.


Jabbe-Bio, who is married to Sierra Leone’s president, Julius Maada Bio, had been listed on the tenancy since 2007. She has divided her time between Sierra Leone and Britain since her husband was elected in 2018.

Housing rules state that council properties should ordinarily be a tenant’s principal residence. The Times investigation raised questions about whether the south London flat met that requirement after neighbours said they rarely saw Jabbe-Bio.

Announcing the recovery of the home, Reginald Popoola, Southwark’s executive member for council homes, said: “We can confirm we have taken possession of a property in Walworth following a 12-month investigation by our housing investigations team.”

He said the flat would be handed to a family on the waiting list. “I look forward to bringing this council property back to its original purpose, which is to provide a safe and secure home for people with legitimate housing need on the council’s waiting list,” he said.

The case drew widespread attention after reports that Jabbe-Bio had retained the tenancy despite living for much of the year in the presidential lodge in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

In an interview with the BBC last month, Jabbe-Bio defended keeping the flat, rejecting suggestions she had acted improperly. The former model and actor said: “My children are all British citizens. I’m paying for my council house myself. I have not committed any crime.”

There is no suggestion Jabbe-Bio has been charged with any offence.

The recovery of the property comes at a time of acute pressure on social housing in London, with growing waiting lists, rising homelessness and increasing demand for temporary accommodation.

In Southwark alone, more than 18,000 households are on the waiting list for social housing, council figures show. About 4,000 households are living in temporary accommodation while waiting for a permanent home.

Local authorities have stepped up efforts to tackle tenancy fraud and recover properties where tenancy agreements are being contravened. The council said it investigated all allegations of tenancy fraud and unlawful occupation and had recovered 107 properties over the past two years.

Southwark council did not disclose details of the results of its investigation into Jabbe-Bio’s tenancy.

YoungBob has apologised for filming the Southampton protests, which led to multiple arrests. He will only film if he can blur faces (idk how, ai?) or not film at all.
 
I pay for a private pension, because my NI contributions, which I have no choice on paying, will be going into the ether and there will be no state pension for me. I pay tax which goes to the NHS and I can't access a dentist or my GP so I also pay for private medical and dental which I am also taxed on


You bet I'm fucking resentful of people who have never worked, ever,getting a state pension and pension credit.
Also important to keep in mind that due to the current shitshow that is the NHS, a lot of those people who've never contributed a penny in their life are getting access to the same private healthcare that you and I are paying for ourselves... albeit at the expense of the British taxpayer.

I have some relatives - one mum (cumulative work history probably a couple of years total from the mid-80s to present day), two adult daughters (first marriage), and an infant son (second marriage). My mum has always told us that the mum is a munchie - both daughters "have" Ehlers-Danlos, which the mum suddenly developed, presumably after seeing how much money she was getting for the two girls. She spent years doctor shopping for the girls before someone would diagnose them with something to get her to fuck off (as I understand from a doctor family member, Ehlers-Danlos is the classic 'fuck off and leave me alone' diagnosis). She's managed to get her son diagnosed with autism and a few other things, but is still doctor shopping for him, as she clearly isn't happy with whatever money she gets... especially with her former money makers now adults and moved out.

All this to say, one of those two daughters has a boyfriend who had a decent, albeit entry-level trade job; he quit a few years ago to become her full-time carer. They now do fuck-all all day and sit on their arses at our expense. They both drive '25 reg specced-out BMWs, and they're about to buy a house in an expensive part of the lakes. Meanwhile, I, a high-rate taxpayer, am having to live in a shitty part of a shitty city so that I can both put enough together to buy my own place, pay off some debt to the parents who helped support me while pursuing a postgrad, and keep people like that living in luxury.

The funniest part of it all, as far as I'm concerned, is that they all seem to think that they can manage their totally real and not made-up Ehlers-Danlos by 'wild swimming' in lakes. As everyone knows, the best thing for someone with allegedly chronic joint disorders is to plunge themselves into freezing cold water. Ultimately, too, if you can manage it, it's time to join the workforce retards!

Whenever anyone brings up Jews to those migration debates it's 100% trying to divert the topics to reduce heat from Muslims and Pakis/Jeets. This is especially retarded as if one person from 30 years ago somehow had a real impact across decades of political parties.
In my mind there's functionally no difference between a Jew and a Paki.
They both immigrate here, or are the children of those who have, and instead of deigning to integrate they do all they can to advance their group's own interest.
Pointing out Blair had an immigrant/child-of-immigrants in charge of immigration and she made it worse is just typical of immigrants.
Just focusing on the Jews alone is kind of weak shit in modern times. At least when Addy H hated them it was because they were the only major minority within Germany after Versailles but nowadays we've got an eclectic mix of problem causers and it's honestly easier just to shove them all into one big pot.
 
You know what they never seem to mention about that? The company is Israeli, but the equipment they smashed up was destined for Ukraine. I wonder how they feel about that? Or are they the lefties who side with revanchist russia because the notionally independent donbas territory has "people's republic" in its name?

Is Habib a fag? He acts like one.
He's public-school educated, but also from a culture whose men tend towards more effeminate behaviour compared to the west. Makes him hard to read.

Further proof that all these fucking groups are just kremlin operations. Just stop oil and palestine action are almost identical in character for a reason
 
I hope they sell the house and spend all of the money on cruise ships and scratch cards
The true english boomer way
They’re not like that at all. I kind of wish they would spend money on themselves but they’re frugal northerners. Boomers paid in. Most have small modest houses and working class level pensions, and I begrudge them nothing.
Why am I then paying it?! Why should I? That's why people are pissed off at "The Olds". Because the country is in ruins, and all the things we are paying for, and into, we cannot access. It's money pissed up the wall, to pay for other peoples things.
then they need to be pissed off at the people who have made the pension system an impossible pyramid scheme, not the boomers who are reaching the end of their lives.
I’m assuming I won’t get any kind of state pension assistance and I’m only Gen X. I believe a country should and more importantly CAN look after its own. I’d reform pensions - totally ringfence the money, no more dipping into it. invest it properly. Massive tax breaks for your own pension contributions, reform how we are taxed on that.
Other countries do it. It’s possible but it’s NOT possible if we are spunking money up the the wall on outsiders, globalist projects, and frankly treasonous things like destroying our industry for net zero.
Not a single illegal migrant should reach our shores. We have a navy. Use them. Intercept, take to third place or repel.
Give me absolute power for five years and immunity from prosecution and I will deliver you an Eden of a country. It can be done. They just don’t want to, and the system is entrenched. It needs ripping out by the roots, scraping out like a rotten gourd,
Some ditches may need to be dug,
 
It's that time of the year where I can't work out if my neighbour with an England flag in their window is a racist fucking cockwomble who supports the fascist Reform or just a room temperature IQ football supporter. Either way I've put in a PREVENT referral so hopefully they get taken away in a black van and are never seen again.
 
I will never grow tired of skimming over dozens of pages of dumb stupid ignorant foreigners creaming themselves each and everytime there's a little ooopsie ethnic tension in Ulster, the shit going on in Belfast is a regular weekend for those lads, this is the place that has to stick up mini Berlin walls between neighbourhoods so they don't murder each other en masse overnight for fucks sake.
Where is @isalaide
I imagine @Fareal is doing just fine wearing whichever skin xhey're currently wearing, nobody ever leaves for ever for real.
 
Massive tax breaks for your own pension contributions, reform how we are taxed on that.
All they have to do is make S&S ISA withdrawals free after you hit 60 as they do with LISAs, and tax relief on deposits (maybe up to a deposit of £10k p/a if they want to apply a limit) on deposits as they do for SIPPs. Your average Joe is never getting anywhere near the current £20k p/a ISA deposit limit, but they could also consider upping it.
 
The average pensioner is 65 ?!!!!!

The UK State Pension age is currently 66 for both men and women, but it is gradually increasing to 67 for those born on or after April 6, 1960.

You must be the dumbest motherfucker in the world. Did you dress yourself this morning on your own ?

Perhaps you should post less and actually consider making a contribution when you do post, rather than shitting up the thread with your retarded shit.
Interestingly we can roughly determine the average pensioner age using ONS data, although annoyingly anyone 90+ is just lumped into one category, so the numbers are off. Anyway, you just multiply each age 66+ by the count of age, and then divide by total count.
So very approximately the average age of a pensioner is 75 for men and 76 for women.
charta.png
The mode is 66 because people who retired at 66 are the least likely to have died already. There's a gradual decline in numbers until an uptick around age 77, which is the lingering trace of the baby boom directly after WWII (this data's a couple of years outdated).
If we had access to the full datasets we could probably do some further number crunching, around average age of non-working pensioner (10% of people over the age of 66 still work).

wow, 2 years off, I guess I should kill myself. You're correct, the British government should give pensioners whatever they want, they paid into the system and voted for policies that guarantee infinite third world migration. You're a pedantic faggot who won't engage with any of the issues I've talked about because boomers fought against the hecking nazis or some shit.

The average British worker today will never have a pension, but you don't care about that because boomers are based or something (ignoring that they not only allowed but actively participated in the system of wokescolding that led to where the UK is now) fuck boomers and fuck you. The UK is in the situation it is in now because infinite migration is required to pay for pensions for people who mostly own their own homes and are demographically 1/4 made up of millionaires. What about the countless young people who can't get a job because they're competing against the entire third world for an entry level job? Do they not matter? Should they just work harder?

I believe the issue being raised was that you said the "average" pensioner is aged 65, but the minimum age for even receiving a pension is higher. Data from The Office for National Statistics from the 2021 Census suggests that the actual "average" pensioner age is 75. That's still not enough for them to have fought in world war 2, but whatever. Boomer Hatred is something that only really works in the US with the evangelical boomers who have been pavlov'd into being golems. Meanwhile, in the UK, the older generations were duped by lying politicians and the media just like everyone was prior to new media finally breaking the stranglehold they had on information.

Spreading hatred for the elderly of your nation is such a fucking kike trick meant to erode away your own faith in your people so you accept the new order with less resistance. Don't be jealous of Keith and Debbie, be jealous and angry at John the Hotel Manager making bank housing a billion rapepakis from the third world, of the human rights lawyers ensuring he can continue to do so. Of the subversives and malevolent making up the support for such things.
Very few elderly people actually support the state of the United Kingdom, but what do you really want them to do? It's taken this long to get an actual serious alternative that is interested in the future for their family.

in the UK, the older generations were duped by lying politicians and the media
Yes, boomers are such innocent angels who dindu nuffin, they just wanted pensions n shit. They are completely incapable of second order thought and can't possibly imagine how the policies they fight tooth and nail for will lead to infinite migration. They are the more sensible and rational generation after all.
