Jeremy wine on about it now more bashing of livestock industry.
Cows are great for looking at but you don't have to kill them!
Are they going to pay us to keep them to be looked at; I don't think so. I don't think they realise that there would be hardly any animals left.

The animal rights activists/vegans have certainly planned this prolonged attack on our industry.

Our representatives should be planning a similar response with media coverage. I have seen suggested Beef and Lambuary along with meaty March.

There total ingnoral of the good grazing livestock can do in capturing carbon etc must be countered

The singer guy on there was banging on about how he was a veggie and now a vegan to save the planet .When asked where do you live he said between here and the USA .I fly backwards and forwards quite a lot!!:banghead::banghead::banghead:
That is the problem we have; no one will give up their flights or gas guzzling cars or cut back on leisure as it will impact severely on their lifestyle. But give up meat and save the planet and you can carry flying etc. is very easy for a lot of people to do.
Unless this can be addressed we could have serious problems.

Id like to ask them what they would do with/without animals cos nobody would keep any?
The question they never have an answer for, other than to say that eventually they will not be bred as there will be no use for them. So the world turning vegan rapidly would be very inconvenient for them!

They can turn vegan simply by going up a different aisle at the supermarket, Minimal inconvenience but feel good " We are saving the planet ".
- but not a chance of missing their 2 holidays a year.

Happened to notice that there was a lot of vegan range food at the supermarket I went to recently that was double reduced. Several different types of vegan meals and snacks on the reduced shelves.
Saw several customers - could have been omnivores, could have been vegetarians - pick the containers up, examine the writing, and put the food back on the shelf.

They can try all they like, the truth is the truth, it is objective, it does not change with misinformation, agenda, feelings, fashion or culture.

Red meat is good for me, you, them and the environment.

After a good week’s work, a plate of greens just isn’t going to cut it. Steak? Yes please!
