Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, the Labour Party conference!

[CrapAtCryptics]

You wou;ld think they didnt want to get elected - one stupid policy after another. All designed to be major vote losers with ordinary people.

[shoota]

Truly radio rental...

[dannyk13]

Absolute piffle.Has he considered all the farmers that would be put out of business?

[Zacs-Master]

It's not a policy nor is it likely to be. The QC will say he can see it happening at 'some point in the future'.

I think Tora, in his one man crusade against the Labour party, is guilty of a rather misleading post. But....standard for AB, it will no doubt be discussed and opined on.

[ToraToraTora]

I'd forgotten how much fun their conference is, they should put it on sky box office and charge! Sheer genius!

[Gromit]

Labour are not going to ban meat. It is not a new policy, it is a fringe debate sponsored by a Vegan Group.
Cigarette smoking is harmful to health and it is completely legal. Likewise, eating too much red meat is also harmful, but will forever remain legal.

If we eat less harmful meat, and that results in less greenhouse gas emissions, then it is a win-win situation.

[ToraToraTora]

they are talking about banning burgers in pubs gromit, not banning meat full stop. For someone who's not a Labour man you sure jump to their defence a lot.

[Gromit]

Zacs-Master,

Tora added to the Labour Party coffers a couple of years ago when he joined as a member. Perhaps he is now feeling guilty, and is over-doing the penance.

[ToraToraTora]

not at all gromit, I consider my part in making Jezza leader worth every penny of the £2 it cost. Long may he reign. He's the best asset the tories have ever had. Of course I was never a party member, more a sort of interested party and was allowed to vote on that basis along with an estimated 150,000 tories! So Jezza is our man!

[ToraToraTora]

PS, I am actually in the Tory party though and that cost a pony, I voted for Bojo.

If we ban Labour Conference think how much greenhouse gas emissions will be stopped from polluting the seaside with their spoutingbovine excreta.

//"Thirty years ago people didn't bat an eyelid if you lit a cigarette in a pub or restaurant//

How could they if they couldn't see for smoke?

[Gromit]

Tora,
Banning burgers in pubs is SKYs spin on it. They are not advocating that. They used the smoking ban as an example of how opinions and habits change.

People are buying more greener cars to combat greenhouse gas emissions. But a cow produces x23 times the amount of greenhouse gas than a car - and there are more cows than cars on the planet.
The Vegans think we should eat less meat because of animal welfare and health reasons. But now they are trying to shame us into eating less (or no meat) for environmental reasons.

[Old_Geezer]

And I'm sure that they know what they can do with their attempted public manipulation.

[Zacs-Master]

Won't there be a lot more cows on the planet if we stop killing them for meat?

[ToraToraTora]

We just eat the ones we have ZM and when they are gone we'll all be veggies.

[Old_Geezer]

Ah, so I can then eat the lot of you legally ?

[agchristie]

Yeah eat all the cows and we won't be full of bull instead.

[maggiebee]

//locate a ridiculous story// Well well, who's doing this now?

[spathiphyllum]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They're going to make a diet illegal.

They're going to try enforce a diet?

They're going to try and change a couple of million years worth of evolution to suit snowflake animal lovers?

LOL
