UK British News Megathread - aka CWCissey's news thread

https://news.sky.com/story/row-over-new-greggs-vegan-sausage-rolls-heats-up-11597679

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.

This guys sucks up to every brown person under the sun as long as they wave the UK flag lol

Because he understands that most British people aren't anti all immigration. For normies it's not about what immigrants look like, it's about their ability to integrate and be 'one of us' in their values and sense of humour. Whatever his personal views, going full-blown mask-off racist against the south asians and blacks that have been integrated here for literally decades would destroy his movement.

Null should make the site embed the documentary in every single reply in this thread, just to piss off the Bri'ish government.

This. The Farms is already hated by the UK establishments due to sucking Keffals's tranny cock so seeing them seethe at this would be funny.

UPDATE: Tommy has been released on bail. The police finally rubbed the 1 and a half brain cells they collectively have together and realised how badly they fucked up yesterday. Apparently his phone has been taken as well.

I'm calling it now that they're probably going to arrest those who have been sending him messages of support next. Lots of his followers have no idea about the importance of hiding your powerlevel and unironically use shit like Facebook so they'll be easy targets.

The majority of people outside of London would be happy is London was cut off from England and sent to France.

I hate the French as much as any American but what did they do to get saddled with London?

And today Tommy Robinson has been arrested* under the Terrorism Act [ X ], reportedly for screening his own banned documentary at yesterday's event.

I know very little about Tommy Robinson and he could be an opportunist grifter for all I know, but it sure is starting to look like he's a persecuted unfavorable. Which is to say: regardless the truth of the matter, the silly fuckers are building the man his own legend.

ETA: There is a protest on Downing Street, currently being livestreamed here.

* ETA 2: The Met deny it [ X ]. Quite the puzzler.

ETA 3: This posted yesterday suggests otherwise [ X ]. The social media monkeys must not be in the loop.

Niggers never heard of the Streisand Effect?
Whats the doc about, how they just let thousands of children be raped because they didn't want to piss off the fucking Hadjis?

Anyone got a link for the documentary, sounds worth watching.

EDIT @snowdunes thanks for the archive

I remember there were two kids arrested for skidding their e-scooters on a rainbow flag painted on the road leaving tyre marks. Kids. Not late teens. Kids.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13513907/amp/washington-spokane-teens-jail-lgbtq-rainbow-mural-vandalism.html

Likewise a bloke in a pick up burning out the rear tyres on a rainbow flag whilst turning at an intersection.

https://youtu.be/19z3o97dBq4?si=JCeZ1cgtrrXgyAsz

Just googled videos of such events, and there are lots of them.

The US also has their patriot act that lets the government throw anyone in prison for any reason they want, as long as they say the magic word "terrorism". Mutts might have guns, but that doesn't currently seem to stop the feds rolling right over them with impunity.

All of this "I hate the british" "i hate the americans" bullshit is people falling for a pervasive, very successful psy-op; one designed to divide we, the people so we don't stand in common cause against the corporate-owned ruling class.

Well that's absolutely horrifying. At least I live in the US, not the UK.

lol at the Brits making excuses and claiming he committed libel for exposing a bully. This is why your country is in such a sad state that it makes US at its worst still look good.

I wonder why they went through all this effort to suppress the truth about the kid. He theorized it was to protect the narrative about innocent Syrian refugees, but if they were involved in releasing the clip to begin with it seems like it's something else. My best guess would be - since this is the school that had the teacher who made an image of muhammud and it ended up closed - this was just a way of making an example of the school.

It's class-conscious snobbery on their part.

Yes, we know what yobs are. We know Tommy Robinson looks and sounds like one, and that the EDL was composed mostly of football hooligans. We know they probably didn't get the best grades in school or come from money.

We also know that faggy Limeys wrinkle their noses up at them because they're scared to death of being called yobs themselves. Being considered lower class than you are is a nightmare for them.

We Yanks don't quite have that sickness as bad. What we see is that the lower-class poorly schooled builders are seemingly the only people in Blighty who have backbones to stand up to shit-skinned mongrels.

Imagine being called racist for flying your country's flag:
View attachment 6247250

You are completely and utterly retarded if you think the issue people have with the likes of Tommy Robinson is the fact that they fly the flag of the country or because they come from poorer backgrounds.

I don't like Tommy or the EDL because they (along with the pompous ruling class dickheads in the UK) jointly drag the country down and perpetuate the class wars. Groups like the EDL are used by the ruling class to justify calling everyone who is poor a chavvy uneducated cunt if they happen to be critical of the government or immigration because "That's what the EDL stands for". They're useful idiots who cause more harm to disassembling the establishment than they solve. The lower, working, and middle classes in the UK aren't likely to unite under a group like the EDL, because despite agreeing with them on a lot of their principles, they act like fucking niggers. Niggers are bad for your cause, because niggers can't help but throw shit around like literal apes, and nobody wants to be a fucking nigger so they (unfortunately) distance themselves from everything the EDL stands for as a result.

Not everyone who is opposed to Tommy and the EDL disagrees with Tommy and the EDL on their beliefs, they just don't want to support a fucking football hooligan firm as it's a bad look from an optics perspective. It makes your cause look like uneducated nigger shit.

Never mind England entire; we only wish London's accents were London accents. Instead, your capital city and one of the capital cities of the European patrimoine is full of hideous foul-smelling Third-World-savage filth.

I ain't Brittish but you're adressing all of Europe so i can weigh in. January of last year i visited both Philly and NYC you do not have a leg to stand on with this argument. Philly was considerably worse than NYC tho but seeing the homeless sleeping on the middle of the sidewalk or homeless niggers jacking off was something i could definitely do without. I will freely admit our capitol cities (and other major cities as well) are infested with muslim vermin but yours are completely nigger infested is there a meaningfull difference? But more than that WHY DOES THE WATER TASTE LIKE CHLORINE?!

According to the daily mail he has now noped out of the country and the police force that arrested him was Kent.

It's not at all shocking that the MET and the Government would use the events of Saturday to arrest him on something, they've been desperately looking for an excuse for years to get him on something that would stick. More so now that Labour has full control and there is certainly no one within Labour who has any sympathy for him or his cause.

Though to go off topic a little, it's a really sad state of affair for England that we just aren't allowed to talk about the insane racial change in this country. It's all the more noticeable with just how dense our towns and cities are and now it's being exported into the country side. If we weren't such an island of NIMBI's then we may have been able to have done something about it a lot earlier.

you are overestimating how smart this guy actually is lol, we are way past the point of being nice Stave Laws gets the same engagement or more and he is completely for sending all of them back legal and illegal

I like the concept of the British people and their legacy, their history, I don't like their current version.

Europe as a mix too, except the Balkans or the East where national pride was a backstop to survive cultural genocide by 70+ years of communist rule.

It's a disgusting mix of being still nose up entitled while hating the ancestors and their hardship that made you feel superior and entitled, it's the French socialists crying about Napoleonic statues and imperialism while they still held Africa by propping up dictators to secure oil and uranium supplies (until Russian mercs managed to topple them)

Europeans have no balls anymore, they are ashamed constantly, bullied in school by a Jewish curriculum that forces even the saviors of the Holocaust to feel guilty for it.

It's maddening, it's shameful.
British nationalism has been watered down to waving British flags in pubs when there's a world cup, or when some old fart who is a monarch passes by, but if you feel anything when you look at Nelson's column, you should be ashamed and constantly reminded of him owning slaves.

It's even worse than communist rule, because while the people were oppressed on the outside, they still kept their internal pride, their sense of self.
Today I bet most Europeans self censor in their own thoughts.

Very interesting documentary.
The guy needs to get out of that shit hole third world occupied country and move to the US, to a Red State with Stand Your Ground and Castle Doctrine, somewhere he can at least to steps to protect himself and his family.
What that documentary revealed about the UK disgusts me.
Fucking corrupt as fuck, the place is like a 3rd World Banana Republic, disappointing as fuck to see how far its fallen. I've got a lot of love and respect for the Brits, even if I do joke on them, and their history, but their government and current self destruction is sad to see.
They should be proud. They had the greatest Empire the world has ever seen. They're allowing themselves to be overtaken and replaced and their government is complicit while they tesch their children to hate themselves and their history.
This is why we can't ever allow the Left to take our guns. This is what happens to a people when they allow the right to self defense to be made a criminal act.

“In 2021, Syrian refugee Jamal Hijazi successfully sued Robinson after the then-schoolboy was assaulted at Almondbury Community School in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, in October 2018.

After a clip of the incident went viral, Robinson made false claims, including about Mr Hijazi attacking girls in his school, leading to the libel case.

Following Mr Hijazi's successful libel claim, Mr Justice Nicklin ordered Robinson to pay him damages and his legal costs, as well as making an injunction preventing Robinson from repeating the allegations he made against the then-teenager.” Source

The thing that amuses me is the crossover of Robinson and everyone’s favourite twitter transwoman and thread haver Fat Tone.
ChaCha heels puts it better than I can

But even better, that Nicklin is the judge that Null submitted this to

Which has always tickled me.

Are there any niggers over there trying to etablish a caliphate and sharia law, or are they just content with being absolutetly worthless criminals? This is important.
