Ayone thinking that because Khan has proposed this its predominantly a UK issue is way off, here. In Germany it was proposed months back they aim to to try to get the population down to 10g of meat per day (thats not a typo)...and the Germans eat of lot of animal products. In the end, the globalists want to control the food supply and don't want us consuming meat, and unless you live off grid out back of beyond this will be the general direction we are heading in, like it or not

They may, and indeed can try, but it ain’t going to happen. 
People living ‘off grid’ in the true sense of the phrase, can’t afford meat.

Food might be part of the blame but lack of exercise might be the real reason , now they don't even have to leave there homes to get the take away's as you now see a endless stream of delivery people leaving places like Mc Donald's

And sorting that out would start to ease pressure on the NHS, the state of a lot of the children is disgusting and their parents should be utterly ashamed of letting them get that way

As marsh man says, takeaway culture is rife, with McDonalds at the top of the list. They’re not going to be electing any MPs who try to take their Big Macs away from them.

I'd disagree, you keep your own, chickens, goats whatever - you just wouldn't be going to buy supermarket meat

My parents lived like that when I was small, including breeding rabbits for their meat, but we weren’t living ‘off grid’. The phrase means different things dependant on whereabout in the world you live, but no one lives ‘off grid’ in affluent western society, no matter how much their virtue signalling leads them to think so. 
Khan and others can play god all they want, but no one can dictate to others what they should and shouldn’t eat.

yup ..it aint going to happen................period................mike drop

It ain't going to happen, until it does.

I think that it will go the way of introducing a meat tax - and will tax it off the plates of 90% of the population. Imagine if a Sunday Joint for 4 goes from £20 to £100. Less demand for meat will  have an impact on farming which will then have an impact on availability and an impact on price which will then drive it up even more....

The globalist agenda(s) will then be met, while there is in increase of draining more money from the people. Less farms, more rewilding - or more land for building

🙂You’d better all start saving, and head for the countryside then, and that smallholding to breed your chickens and  pigs!

Apparently Saddo Khant has signed everyone up in London to going to some World Diet Sustainability model by 2030 which means a vast reduction in Red Meat

Is Khan suggesting that muslims in Greater London (said to number around 1.3 million) ought not celebrate Eid-el-Adha and Eid-el-Fitr with a feast of meat?   Bad news for all the Halal butchers.

How are populations such as the Masai and the Sami expected to survive in future?   Do the anti-meat campaigners have much experience of growing food crops in places where the climate is hot and dry, or very cold?

VAT grown meat - would that be acceptable?? Meat won't be banned - just priced out of every day, week, month usage....

While i was at work at the university there where 14 wardens and they had a meet and greet with us and every nationality had to bring a dish from there country , I tried all the dished to the disgust of my mates a lot of the fried insects where too heavily salted to taste much , and there was a load of funnier stuff but they where surprised we ate haggis but a few tried it .

No we don't pay road tax it's vehicle tax. Blair and Brown changed the name as it was getting abundantly clear that road tax wasn't getting spent on the roads.

Not if there isn't any to steal - everything will be to order

The German "NUDGE" unit is on about making it as socially unacceptable as hard drugs - making people embarrassed to even go through the meat doors at an approved supermarket....

Fortunately we have Mogg and his few slates short of a roof proposal, to encourage importing hormone injected meat into the UK as part of our Brexit bonus. That should do food standards and our agricultural industry the world of good.

At the conference, Sir Jacob said: "I want cheaper food, I want hormone-injected beef from Australia. I've eaten beef in Australia, it was absolutely delicious. There's nothing wrong with it and they should be allowed to export it here."

Trying to make food cheaper is not madness, as long as there are no issues to human health.
20 odd years ago the EU banned US meat treated with hormones, citing health concerns, the US approached the WTO , who in turn asked the EU to provide some kind of proof that it was detrimental to human health, they could provide no such evidence, but continued the ban anyway, which cost them $130 million a year in 'fines' 

In the US you have the choice of cheaper hormone meat, or organic, and Im pretty sure that would be how it would be  here.
Lets be honest, if it turns men into women or vice versa, it wouldnt make much different to the landscape now anyway

I know a bloke in my home town whom imported such meat ( from where I don’t know ) and made an exceptionally good living from it. He lived in a massive house in its own grounds on the edge of town, drove one of those big 4x4 Porsche vehicles and his wife had some big BMW jobby. 
He always dressed impeccably with a pin-stripe suit, brightly coloured waistcoats, bow ties, long trench coat, usually with Dubarry boots and was considered quite eccentric. 
When the ban came in he eventually became our local UKIP representative, which didn’t really have much effect in a small market town, but nevertheless his was a cause he pursued with a vengeance. 
Anyhow, the ban destroyed his business, his family moved to a still impressive but much smaller house, and the prestige vehicles went. 
I don’t know where he lives now, but he drives a Golf and works in a local Sainsburys, and still wears a bow tie to work. 🙂

Anyhow, all that has nowt to do with the thread, but yes, I agree with JRM.
