  Meat is only cheap because of the subsidies provided to the industry. It’s expensive in environmental terms too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Except that the law says the meals have to be nutritious to a set level. So no, they can’t do that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You seem to be under the apprehension that making food without meat in it is some mystic art that is beyond the comprehension of anyone other than his company. What is stopping any other company producing exactly the same products as his? Changing the law will have no effect on the marketplace.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Any company can provide meat-free food. There is no reason this change in law should disadvantage his competitors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Any company can provide meat-free food. There is no reason for schools to change their existing suppliers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Personal gain in the case of green lobbying is a subset of universal gain. Exactly the same as Vince’s case. It doesn’t follow the he will profit more than anyone else, as anyone else can supply meat-free food too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s not campaigning to have his company’s food served at schools, just for the rule compelling schools to serve meat to be changed. His argument is that it is better for children’s health and for the environment that less meat is eaten - and he’s right. It doesn’t automatically follow that his company will gain from any change, as there are many other options available to schools and it’s perfectly possible for existing meat providers to start providing meatless meals.

  How do green campaigners not gain from it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So you are against any lobbying? Green campaigners are lobbying for personal gain because they want a habitable planet. Even if you have a vested interest, surely you are allowed to have an opinion? If you have an opinion surely you are allowed to express it? If you are allowed to express it, surely people are allowed to listen to it? Should politicians be insulated from all industry voices, even if they have a valid point?

  Just seems weird that no one really cared about it until this guy popped up on the radar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So? The meat industry has a massive lobbying section. Are other industries not allowed a voice? Why is everyone presenting this as a massive “gotcha” when it’s actually written in the title of the article?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scrap law making schools serve meat, says Labour donor Vince Dale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes there is. The law states that schools have to serve meat at least 3 times a week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scrap law making schools serve meat, says Labour donor Vince Dale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Who did the meat industry have to pay to get a law passed saying that their product MUST be served at schools?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scrap law making schools serve meat, says Labour donor Vince Dale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Shouldn’t it be up to the schools what they serve, rather than mandating meat MUST be served by law?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come Israel don't use Mossad to take out all of the Hamas leadership similar to what they did after Munich? Would this not be better than bombing stuff into oblivion?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Israel isn’t as stupid or naive as you seem to think. They have the best intelligence service in the world and usually know what’s going on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come Israel don't use Mossad to take out all of the Hamas leadership similar to what they did after Munich? Would this not be better than bombing stuff into oblivion?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Did Israel expect them to? Just to be clear - you are not talking to a Hamas sympathiser here. They are cunts, but apparently they are useful cunts for Israel, so they helped out with funding. What did Israel think they were going to spend those “suitcases of cash” on?
