And how exactly does this impact anyone’s free choice? Who is being supressed by this?


The law is now being used to enforce vegan food to be provided! Not much of an option if you don’t want to...

Basically some vegans said hospitals, schools and prisons (you know, those places you have no choice in attending) should have vegan options. And that’s oppressing the choice of those establishments to not serve the dietry requirements of people who have no choice but be there.

Somehow this really upsets him because he is now oppressed due to the fact someone who is vegan in a hospital might eat vegan food.

Publicly owned institutions having to provide suitable meals is a bit different to say a restaurant and is not really the end of the world.

Do you think it would be fair and right that a vegan who found themselves in hospital would have no option but to eat animal products?

Seems entirely reasonable to me that public institutions should be made to cater for all.

Obviously this is completely different to private institutions that people have the option about whether to attend.

While you are correct it doesn't seem to work that way on here.. Many attempted trolls end up looking stupid.

From personal experience, my wife is disables, far too many businesses play lip service to the Equality Act.

Is it possible to buy meat from the supermarket that has been reared to a high standard and just as important been killed as humanely as possible. I'd love to give up meat and I've tried but I just cant although I've cut back my meat meals to about two a week.

I’m still waiting for you to confirm how you are oppressed by this, or how anyone is in fact.

If you ran the hospitals, would you force vegans to eat meat?

It covers everyone. That's the point.

Even plonkers who post rubbish on forums, so you are covered, no worries.

Admittedly that isn't listed as one of the Characteristics especially, but nonetheless, you will fall into one of the categories by definition.
