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.

The fact that no one even attempted to stop him from laying a wreath angers me. The people who let this happen do not get to lay a wreath for children they let die.

Everytime I start to pull away from fedposting shit like this happens and I'm right back in. I don't want to be like this, I don't want to be radicalised but it seems like the powers that be are laser focused on making regular people go crazy so they can then arrest us for being crazy.

FUCKING STOP.

 

[Morethanabitfoolish]

FUCKING STOP.

Avoid the news about it today and tomorrow then because people have taken the bait and the media slime will be running with it.

This. I've had to walk away from checking up on things constantly and just do any other fucking thing to stop myself from thinking about this. It's nuts.

(Seriously. Go do chores to take your mind off of this shitshow - your house will look spotless!)

The lads are booting off outside the mosque with the "who the fuck is Allah" chants.
Apparently the media statement that the attacker was born in Cardiff didn't trick Daz

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

Do you ever get the sense this stuff is set up to enflame us?

Yes. I believe the 'white man', that is, those with the British/European mindset of a peaceful, lawful, God-fearing nation; one of unity, freedom and prosperity, need to be exterminated to help usher in the digital social utopia/communism.

The 'White-man' has never stood for tyranny or oppression, even from his own brothers - see 1776. The white-man doesn't die to foreign hands, instead, he launches crusades, purges and persecutions against those who hinder, halt or interfere with the spreading of true science, social and political advancements - see every European empire that trotted outside of Europe.

Unfortunately for TPBP- whoever they may be, the white-man is a pesky menace who needs removing. There are no nations strong enough to stop us, never have been, it's why Europe has ruled the world for millenia, and paved the way for a better future, year after year, decade after decade, century after century.

How then does the white-man get removed? By pitting him, brother vs brother - see WW1 and WW2. So effective was that at wiping out swathes of white-men, that the same tactics are being deployed again. The biggest lie ever told was that the Nazis were evil. They weren't, they were just efficient and not very subtle, typical Germans.

Took a look East, see white man vs white man, a war pushed on whites by whites for the benefit of non whites. Ironically, the only one who we can look to for inspiration is Ghandi, who famously said "Wut? fuq dat, ain't no1 got time for dis shit." When it came to the British. He dealt more damage to the empire without raising a fist or firing a bullet than any man in history.

The hippies in the 60's and Frankie Goes to Hollywood were right. Make love, not war.

So while you glowingly say "X immigrant is 4 times more likely to...." I'll wager the same statement "Your lower 20% of your indigenous population is 4 times more likely to...".

You're some variety of shit-skin, aren't you? No, our indigenous poors are NOT just as likely as the racially inferior Third-World imports (from the slave days to today) to commit crime.

Poor-as-fuck hillbillies (like JD Vance's family - I did read the memoir) are more likely than midde-class whites to commit crime, but they commit far less crime than even middle-class niggers, on average.

I'm willing to bet the same is true when it comes to yobs vs Pakis.

The shit-skins of the world have inferior genes.

Somewhere in my meme collection is the table of crime stats by US zip code and income. The poorest 20% of White-majority areas have a lower violent crime rate than the richest 20% of black-majority areas.

When it first made the rounds, "fact checkers" pointed out that black income distribution is lower. Problem is, we're not talking about adjacent quintiles where that difference would matter...

It's Appalachian towns whose entire industries were sent abroad, making $20k/yr, versus communities in DC-VA-MD on their fourth generation of turbo affirmative action, where the entire black population have 6-figure government jobs they are never at risk of losing.

Top 1% of the world in terms of stable environment and affluence, but still more violent than the former.

The biggest lie ever told was that the Nazis were evil. They weren't, they were just efficient and not very subtle, typical Germans.

The Nazis were idiots who bought into an ideology that was both ridiculous and insanely self-destructive, and they only got into power because the French decided to destroy Prussian culture as vengeance for the Franco-Prussian war without stopping to think about what would replace it. Once again the French ruined everything for the rest of us.

Et les conséquences ne seront jamais les mêmes.

It’s all kicking off in Southport.

Hundreds of people seem to have traveled there for the purpose of trashing a mosque and fighting with police.
Lots of comments saying they have been botted into doing this via social media, and that there’s no evidence the attacker was in fact a Muslim or immigrant.

And there is no further official information on that I can see on that other than the “born in Cardiff” statement.

Armed police here showing up right and prompt just in case they need to shoot down people upset at children being stabbed to death by a mudman.

I'm an American.

And I live in an area that has very low crime; versus an area adjacent that has very high crime. The difference is economic, and the black/hispanic/white ratio is almost identical to the adjacent area. They are identical by 1 percentage point, so its apples and apples.

The difference is economic.

Any American will tell you to go to a poor neighborhood and whether it be black or white, Indian, Iranian, Chinese or icelandic, my best wishes after 11PM in what you find yourself in for. Poor = crime. They are by a huge margin (like triple, quadruple) going to be more criminal.

Go get rid of them and you'll reduce you murder, robbery, rape, child abuse by over 75%.

 

[Chunky Salsa]

Yeah we can tell. Bad at math, low IQ, and loves to suck off niggers, pakis, and every other mud person under the sun.

You don't know shit. Thats your best response to what I said? That is fucking pathetic. You know its fucking true, and here you are coping because the truth is if you didn't have your lower class you'd have slashed your crime stats by 50-75%, but you just don't like it.

Cope in your own by, by all means, but grow a pair and try and prove me wrong. Tell me how the middle class and upper class are out stealing copper wire, robbing 7/11s, cars, porch pirates, breaking and entering, claiming benefits they aren't entitled to, getting free medical while we pay for it, shootings over $20 drug deals, I won't believe it - and neither do you.

So you, shut the fuck up and go live in the ghetto and tell me at 10PM as you're strolling down the street while you take out your wallet to the ATM that you are worried about Ishmal Mohummed from Iran...or John Williams the 3-times felon down the road with 3 kids with 3 different women who is jobless cause he's got a rap sheet longer than your dick.

Go ahead. Make my day.

Poor = crime

Oh do please give it a rest with your globohomo propaganda

A more accurate rumor is that he was a home-grown nigger, parents from Rwanda (lol), known for having mental health issues.

 

[SnergenFlergen]

To be entirely fair this particular vermin likely got into the country long before Starmer became PM. However that's admittedly a moot point as him and his party support the policies that enable him and his ilk to enter the country unchecked in the first place.

All involved deserve the noose.

*Edit* It appears that the good people of Southport are boogaloo-ing. The Boy Buggering Committee are, of course, framing this as being Islamophobically motivated-

Thats right, GOYS, stop speculating and go back to sleep.
Absolutely shameful, I know the rules about not naming minors for crimes but you can't seriously use that as an excuse.
The whole "Born in Cadiff" thing is so meaningless. He's 17 and was probably born right off the boat from France. If anything it's even worse because it shows that migrants don't integrate, and that MUH SOCIOECONOMIC FACTORS are bollocks.
