  • To your last paragraph, I think it’s a mixture of two things. The first being that the UK has become increasingly horrifically transphobic over the past decade, and this current bunch in Labour are opportunists who will just go where they think the votes are. He once said “trans women are women, trans men are men” but several years later changed his view to “men have penises, women have vaginas.” The party has no courage or backbone now to stick up for anyone, because they think conceding to the right wing will win them votes.

    The second being that Wes Streeting is known to be one of the more conservative members of the Labour party, both economically and socially. There’s some genuinely upsetting stuff on his Wikipedia page under political beliefs, such as his support for conversion therapy organisations.

    That last one was a really lucky guess for the location




  • If it makes the transition easier for people and improves accessibility then it’s worth putting up with comments from meat eaters I think. When people have said it’s hypocritical to eat fake meat before I’ve pointed out that I still like the taste, I just don’t want an animal to die for it. I wish I could do completely whole foods but some health issues mean I can’t eat certain things and I don’t have the energy to cook from scratch, so the plant meats are great for that reason. Although I’ve been trying to eat healthier protein sources the past while like tofu, lentils, and chickpeas, and I much prefer it both for the taste and for the feeling of fullness afterwards that the plant meats sometimes lack.

    In restaurants I’d go for something unprocessed over a plant meat everytime, restaurants mess up the order enough for it not to be worth the risk.
