“Who The HELL Do You Think You Are?” | Julia Hartley-Brewer’s FURIOUS Clash With Vegan Campaigner

Britons are eating less meat than at any point since the 1970s as the cost of living crisis and the rise of veganism and vegetarianism lowers demand.
Consumption at home fell 12.5 per cent to an average of 854g a week in the year to March 2022, down from 976g the previous year and 949g in the year before the pandemic, according to new figures.
TalkTV’s Julia Hartley-Brewer clashes with animal rights campaigner Nathan McGovern over plant-based diets.
She rants: “The majority of people in this country eat meat. Who the hell do you think you are?”
Nathan counters: “It’s just happening Julia, you have to deal with it!”

When we joined the EEC, we opened up our fishing grounds to the French and Spanish boats whose net hole sizes were much smaller. Everything got caught! And with the stupid quotas, so much fish was thrown back, dead. The whole eco system is destroyed. Not to mention the Korean or Chinese boats. The Dutch used two super trawlers with a monstrous large net trawled between them. How there are any fish left in the North Sea is beyond me.

A gentle reminder to those of you who are complaining about plant-based folks telling everyone else how to live their lives, that by choosing to eat animal products, you are forcing animals to suffer and die, and you are choosing to support an industry that is destroying the planet when you have the option not to. 💚💚

[@danbaumann8273]

Life is suffering. Saying it's destroying the planet is ideological hyperbole. There could, and likely should be better methods employed. The rest, and personalIy wonder if it's not all of it, is nothing more than ideological discomfort with the former, which then gets combined with moral self righteousness, to pretend one _does not take part in_ and is _part of_ said suffering, and everyone _knows_ it. There in the resistance and backlash. This has become a religion and even a cult, which I'm more and more sceptical there is any difference between. Edit: Added phrase.

The fall in meat eating isn’t because people are turning vegan or vegetarian, it’s because we can’t afford it! I used to be a big meat eater, now though, I’m lucky if I eat meat once a fortnight 🤷‍♂️

It’s not because we’re falling out of love with meat, it’s because it’s getting too dam expensive to buy. Example a leg of lamb cost over £35.00.

[@roblloyd1879]

The reduction is mainly down to cost. I have actually increased my meat consumption for health reason, but then, I was taught to cook real food as a child back in the 50s. I can, therefore, make delicious meals out of the cheaper cuts of meat. Here a slow cooker, a variety of spices and marinading for 24 hours adds even more tenderness and flavour. Had a bottle of spiced wine left over from last Christmas, mad e an excellent marinade although I usually make up my own with red wine and apple cider vinegar well spiced.

[@billynuts1184]

if they care so much about animals why are they eating their food?

[@WendyJones-zx7is]

Because it's allowed by God thankyou and he should know he created animals for meat , it's humans who who don't care for other humans which I feel this is far more important ? So, eat anything in moderation whatever rocks ya boat
