[News] Government to abort plans to ban foie grass and fur clothing

[El Presidente]

Jacob Rees Mogg once again shows his man of the people credentials by putting consumer choice first.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

“Some - including Brexit opportunities minister Jacob Rees Mogg - have raised concerns about personal choice.”

Personal choice which he doesn’t extend to women and their own bodies. Hypocrite.

 

[Guinness Boy]

I have to admit (vegans look away now) to being a lover of foie gras in the past and even learning how to cook it properly, but that was twenty years ago or more. I do acknowledge the manner in which it's produced is totally cruel and unacceptable and I haven't touched it in a long while. Chefs these days can make plenty of dishes from other ingredients that are far more delicious. It has had its time.

Unless, that is, you are a Tory minister with a fridge full of foie and a wardrobe full of mink.

 

[The Clamp]

No surprises. The Tory’s are scum.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Totally the wrong thing to do , someone said dropping those would enable the rest of the bill to progress. I suppose that means they have too many back benchers who would block it ...
The public do not want animal cruelty. These items serve only the rich and heartless minority.
Stand up for principle!

 

[Dick Swiveller]

What on earth do you force feed cannabis to get Foie Grass?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

“Some - including Brexit opportunities minister Jacob Rees Mogg - have raised concerns about personal choice.”

Personal choice which he doesn’t extend to women and their own bodies. Hypocrite.

He's even more hypocritical than that as he has a lot of shares in a company that manufacture the morning after pill.

Why is anyone surprised by the lies of this government?

 

[The Clamp]

This isn’t about foie grass and furs. This is about the so called “elite” showing us plebs they can do what they like, when they like. And what better way to bait a “lefty” than this sort of thing? They’ll literally be sitting around chuckling about this.

“What shall we do next Moggers, you old scoundrel”?

“I’ll tell you what, let’s bring back the running of the poor, we’ll chase them on horseback through Raynes Park and slaughter them outside the old East India offices”.

“Oh capital idea Moggers, you fiend! Running of the poor! What larks! Phnarrr haaarrr haaarr haaaaww haaaaaaw”

I wish I was joking. This is their idea of fun.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Bring back bear baiting and public executions.

Let them eat cake.

This. 100%.

It'll be fox hunting back next.

It'll be fox hunting back next.

Back from where? It hasn't gone away.
