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.

Why is he's face so red? It looks like he's holding his breath

Bad color grading, probably didn't even color correct from the beginning, he used the built in white balance, which is something you should never do for serious production. Also he is in shadow, so the color saturation is even more noticable. Or maybe he just got that English breakfast high blood pressure meme going on, he's still a bong after all.

Rotherham, not Rochdale was home of the grooming gangs. Rochdale just happens to be another place full of pakis that rape kids.

Interestingly, Barclays, the bank, has had their offices smashed in and vandalised in most major cities; Manchester, Liverpool, London, Leeds etc. All done by palestinian protesters. Any stories on that? No? Hmm, strange.

The Islamic vote in Rochdale was enough to get populist-commie grifter George Galloway elected as an MP in the last by-election. I think that shows how many of them live there. I haven't been there myself however, so I can't attest to this with my own experience.

I was delighted when that man lost his seat in the July GE. He's genuine scum.

I remember the good old days when mentally ill people just killed themselves, not kids or a bunch of University students.

Dangerous, mentally ill people were usually housed in secure hospitals. Then came “care” in the community, which means letting the slobbering epsilons roam the streets.

Indeed, esteemed Farmer @Caroline Farrow has previous with Gorgeous George.

Postal vote fraud helped them in the election prior to the last one stopped them losing more seats, Peterborough comes to mind

You will never convince me that the UK isn't a testing ground for a grand-scheme human psyop. Never, ever. Everyone within those limits is a guinea pig. It stopped being a country after WW2.

Oh sweet jesus , propaganda always existed and failing goverments and goverments during crisis always crack the whip now how effective are they with it is questionable considering your elite is three generations in with no failures being punished . History is a circle ,not a flat progressive line, this has happened before and will happen in the future . Who will win well I cant say its all about how the dice rolls , your luck and your conviction and other influences manmade or otherwise . As of current your problem is the goverment is more afraid of the mussies than the locals . Make them more afraid of you than the mussies thats all i can say.

If Brits decide to do what needs to be done, we'll be cheering you on. (redacted)

I signing this I would kill to see any of those posh cunts who think pissing themselves and giving up on the lot of their pet projects .

Does anyone have the fake ISIS beheading video where a guy get's his mouth cleaned by a toothbrush ?
By this point I think that spreading that video of forceful dental hygiene would be more likely to make brits, regardless of class, take even more action.
High, middle or low class can rally behind their rejection of healthy teeth.

PS: Jolly heretic is not as based as one might think. I know that when I was more into consuming WN-content that he has some really fishy stuff going on, as well as mark collet, tommy robinson etc..
I would recommend to take everything with a massive grain of salt when consuming right wing content in general because it's crazy how much feds are always involved in that political sphere, given that they can blackmail people with enforcing hate-speech laws n' stuff...

Aren't they already having trouble getting people to join the police? Who wants to join the emergency shield wall they bus around the country when another riot kicks off?

Despite Keir's claims they're not going to be a counter riot squad. What they are going to be is the slimy stains identifying people who've said anything the government doesn't like and as they outright stated using the same restrictions put on football hooligans on those people.

The difference is that most of those football hooligans had extensive criminal histories before getting those things slapped on them. They weren't in jail because it tended to be low grade violence, vandalism and so forth but they had long histories. This scheme is going to be more like the January 6th shit. Existed within 5 miles of an EDL protest? Ban on movement outside of your home between 5pam and 5am Monday to Friday and 24 hours at the weekend. Try to neck yourself as quick as possible because that's the point of these things.

Also expect a further push for digital identity for everyone using the internet.

Hmm interesting. Seems people are saying one big dare you to Starmer.

Remember what I said about crossbows. I am 100% sincere when I say: prepare while you still fucking can, or get the hell out of the UK if you want to rid yourself of this situation entirely.

Remember, there are people in this very thread who acted like synthesising smokeless powder was too far.

The rape gang network still exists; and everytime I think about it, it's like a splinter in the black recess of my brain that refuses to go away. Makes me itch.

In a glimmer of hope - everyone I know is a mixture of excited and angry. The government is very confident that they can pull it off. They are retarded.

In 2021/2, they purged the SAS, SBS, counterterrorism, SFSG - pretty much anyone who can handle an actual gun due to the COVID Vaccines. Those guys still exist. This was most of them, by the way. The only people who can actually enforce this bullshit en masse are completely out of action. Most have moved abroad.

There's no "super secret army coming to crack down on you" - they can't replace their soldiers, or their cops. They have nothing left. It's a bluff. If they had anything to use, they wouldn't be making angry tweets and threatening us, they'd do it.

Speculation - the initial description of the suspect was "foreign", "dressed in all black" - the videos of the Rwandan show him as black as fucking coal with a vibrant, glowing, dazzling green hoody and a surgical mask. The police kept planes in the air, several helicopters up, and were still searching the area for hours after the Rwandan was caught.

The behaviour of the government, combined with a weirdly specific rumour:

The man was either Syrian or Jordanian by nationality, Palestinian by heritage, was directly involved in October 7th and the IDF had warned the UK about his presence. He left after October 7th, fled via Jordan or Syria (again, he could be from Jordan, and left via Syria, fuck knows, lots of mix-ups).

I wonder why Starmer would want to keep that quiet. Would certainly explain the response by the police - if it came to light that this attacker was a Hamas-affiliated Islamist who targeted white girls to avenge Palestinian deaths after their invasion of southern Israel, the people would riot.

So they lied - and the people just rioted anyway.

I’m constantly trying not to fedpost. I keep saying it but all of this feels different to anything that went before.

The government are going to actively show their hand and reveal to even the blindest of people that they fucking hate us.

They’re going to put a boot on our throat, tax us until we can hardly live, and import half of the third world, and people will cheer it on.

I keep trying to put a positive spin on things but deep down i know things are going to have to get really crazy before sanity can be restored.

No one at work work has mentioned any of this. They are all bourgeois lefties and they must be blotting it all out right now.

I just want to shitpost on my favourite troon hating website, bros. I‘m just feeling really tired and worried for the future.

This sounds, almost, like an admission.
Why not fedpost? The worst that can happen is Null will ban you for a week. There's no man behind the curtain, it's a scared group of conmen, pretending like they have an army. They fired most of their best soldiers over two years ago, and couldn't replace them in time.

 

[Ghostse]

A new national violent disorder unit is to be set up to clamp down on rioters, the Guardian has learned, after far-right riots this week.

Still waiting on the Muslim "Refugee" Rape Gang task force to get set up after years. But 24 hours of the peasants getting uppity, they gonna be checking rioting loicenses.

Absolutely nailed it. My family friend prophet has said since lockdowns ended that they will be coming back in force. Be it as a climate emergency - too much CO2, no driving this weekend, or the ULEZ shit.
I reckon you've hit the nail on the head. There will be muzzies or whoever going bangy and stabby and the whole town will have to lockdown "for the good of the community and to prevent the spread of misinformation".

I hope they do it because boy will it backfire.

The people in charge of both KF and of the UK do not understand British culture.

The veil is gone. Overnight.

The average Brit looks to other average Brits on their day to day life for behavioural shit. They assumed politeness and mild behaviour would make it easy, but now, this pushed it too far and now, they cannot enforce it.

Just watch it as it unfolds. Farage has sensed the weakness too. From now on, the police will have to do a headcount before any operation to see if they can.

They'll get less calls, less to do and nobody will accept a government declaration as reality without someone, in person, enforcing it.

If the chavs and muzzies have taught us anything, it's that facial recognition can be rendered useless by a scalf and a hoody.

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.

The media is refusing to even discuss not just the video but the details of the libel trial itself. The Guardian is referring to Robinson as being proven in court to have libelled a Syrian refugee. It seems they don't want to cross the line of repeating claims that are obviously bullshit, even though the courts have declared them to be factual.

The vdeo is well produced but the strongest parts are when he goes over the written judgement where the judge is forced to admit Jamal is a liar, but at the same time is believable as a witness.

British courts are not used to having their judgements scrutinised, the judge in the Letby case lost his shit when the New Yorker magazine published an article pointing out that chief witness was a charalatan, and that Letby's barrister wasn't mounting a credible defence. This is something similar.

Robinson has been discharged from bankruptcy, all the news stories of him 'misusing' supporters funds have been planted there by frustrated activists pissed that using the civil courts to mount bullshit libel trials (Katie Hopkins, Laurence Fox, etc) doesn't seem to have worked in this case.Robinson's big doners seem to be toughing it out, and I think this video is largely for those doner benefit.
