Police force is 'running out of vegan meals' because they arrested so many Just Stop Oil protesters during M25 protest

• Essex Police is ‘running out of vegan meals’ following Just Stop Oil protests
• The group brought chaos to the M25 and a police motorcyclist was thrown
• The force went on to arrest and charge 17 activists with the disruption

Many of the protestors are being held in jail whilst awaiting their first court appearance, leaving the force scrambling for £1 vegan ready meals.

‘The last couple of months we have come very close to running out of vegan ready meals,’ a police source said.

Sorry they them t*ssers that made me laugh.

To be fair I expected them to only supply allergy free vegan foods to prisoners. It ticks all the boxes no dairy, halal by design etc.

How about the judicial use of the phrase "You will eat what is put in front of you!" - who knows, this may act as a deterrent!

It would be if they did it properly and gave them raw fruit, veg and cereal that's been handpicked and brought on horse and cart to the nick.

Human Rights.

Being Vegan is a protected characteristic.

Yeah I know the link is only to an employment tribunal but do your really want them to clog up the Courts with it? Especially when a few of them will deliberately confuse the issue by changing religion.

It doesn't have to be organic or not have tulip in the manure.

Agreed, the only option for prisoners should be vegan food served with tap water. It is cheap, 100% Halal, and saves the human race from the impending Climate Disaster.

Is dietary choice a protected characteristic or whatever the term is - are they obligated to provide vegan/veggie meals? Observing medical requirements is obviously different.

both Judaism & Islam are fairly enlightened when eating under duress. Basically ask for forgiveness not die.

Not sure about militant veganism.
