The fact that the United Nations is 'urging' this tells you everything you need to know.

"we're all about diversity and choice, we encourage this by enforcing everybody to do as we instruct them to do"

[WillCamx]

Sick of this BS.
That are all for choice and diversity as long as it's the approved choice and the right sort of diversity.

The disconnect between governance and the people grows alarmingly and no one seems accountable anymore.

[Alan]

We're at a point in clown world where eating a ham sandwich is now an act of civil disobedience.

[LonelyTreeSunset]

Carys, can you imagine if the situation was reversed, i.e., only animal-based products being available? How would you feel? Disrespected? Overlooked? Unaccommodated? Can you not see the unreasonableness of this decision? Some people prefer an appropriate and nutritionally complete diet. This is not a positive move, and it promotes intolerance. Quite disgusting really, forcing your beliefs onto others.

Oxford council are just an extension of the WEF … and equally hated as much

[Musician-Lee]

Who are these complete nutcases and how do they end up in authority? Absolutely criminal.

[davidreynolds]

I have been vegetarian for 45 years (since long before it became 'fashionable' to be so). I would never dream of imposing my life choices on other people like this. People can make their own choices that are just as valid for them as mine are for me. Who the hell do these councillors think they are to enforce such a minority view onto people like this.

[trivit]

So during lunch everyone off to the pub for a proper meal then leaving the council to eat weeds on their own.

[philodowd]

This is Abuse of Power, Disgusting. This Rubbish Has to Stop

[joebloggs]

The deranged smile on her face as she cheerfully supports forcing her choices on other people

[times]

I knew she was going to support this the moment i saw here. She's got that woke look about her.

[tamlynburleigh]

I think this decision deserves the TWIT AWARD.

[leewetherelt]

They need to be reminded that they work for us. Their opinion is not required. They enact the will of the majority.

[ottch]

Oxfordshire council hate farmers look what they are doing to Jeremy Clarkson.

[daphnegraham]

Stop feeding councillors. This should lower the council tax burden and maybe reduce obesity. Just a thought...

[angrywasp]

God that grinning lady made my blood boil - shes so happy at restricting other ppls choices.

[leoleo]

Discussing this is losing. This is why we always lose. If someone wants to ban your meat they are after you. You don’t try to negotiate with a robber, to only take half your stuff. You don’t let them in the door because they take everything in the end.

Any committee on farming must be made up of at least 51% farmers with at least a decade of experience, this 0.1% minority making decisions against the 99.9% majority has to stop, All those in public paid positions working against British public interests should be removed immediately from their public paid duties.
