There's a few tweets and some press releases. Hardly a 'protest'.

Enough of one that it reached here? It's a bit thoughtless of someone but that's about it. My point, as was Paul Reid's I think, is that it's not worth even a few tweets and these people need to find something better to do with their time? Rather like me really...

What have Australian vegies done as their currency has been plastic for sometime now.
I think it would be fun to be in a queue when a vegie refuses to accept a plastic £5 note as change, and are presented with a take it or leave it response

perhaps they should go and save the starving new forest ponies that nobody care about as they aren't edible!
I'm about 40℅ bacon and I went out with a vegetarian for 3 years. She was ****ing mental and her farts stank. Hope that helps.

Because its just ****ing dumb. Will they not go in a vehicle with tyres or use a smart phone with a case or precious metals? Sorry they need to get a grip

Because they expect the majority who don't give a monkeys to indulge their own self interests?

Sh1te, I read this quickly as "If anyone doesn't want their livers I will happily take them off you......."
Was going to suggest putting in the Articles for Sale section.

Recently I have been given quite a few of the new £5 notes in change that just roll up as soon as they are handed over, retaining the shape they were in the night before
Remember folks, they might be new and clean now, but in a years time, every coke addict in the UK will have licked the note you are holding clean

As far as shoes (and boots) are concerned, Vegan Doc Martins are readily available; they do cost more though.
I broke the news to me Buddhist colleague, who was less than impressed. He has my sympathy I think it is unreasonable.
He has chosen to live his life as a vegan for religious reasons, he does not try to cram his views down anyone else's throat and doesn't judge others. The best suggestion was to ask for coins as change rather than a fiver to try not to make a big deal of it. Given that this design has gone through forty six committees and countless sub committees, I do think this was worthy of consideration.

I agree, can't be that hard to produce bank notes with no animal byproducts in them. I would suggest this would be an easy fix that would be accepting of a group of people's way of life. Prbably should have thought this through when they made them. Any way no need for drama and outrage.
