Vegan Week

What news story has made the biggest waves in the vegan movement over the last 12 months? Who has been your animal rights hero of 2024? And what has got you fuming more than Jeremy Clarkson at the news that his shooting habit now comes with the added bonus of inheritance tax?

In part one of this episode, Julie, Dominic & Ant weigh up the biggest impact news stories of the year, as well as the best film, best study, best campaign & the story that had our jaws on the floor with disbelief

Julie, Dominic & Ant

A whole country being 'cancelled' by a Brighton music festival has raised one of our juiciest conversations yet, and have left Dominic, Mark & Anthony with questions like, "Should we all be eating whale meat?", "Do vegans always have to make the vegan argument above all else?" and "What does ethnocentric even mean?".

Our conversation centres on this post from punk band Joe & the Shitboys https://www.instagram.com/p/DAWF2qMsRwW/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

In this episode Carlos & Ant's main story is the 'occupation' of an abbatoir by a group of animal rights activists, continuing the campaign to raise awareness of CO2 being used to stun pigs prior to slaughter.

Additionally we look at:

*Secretly woke plant-based scones

*A campaign to save millions of animals' lives in Brazil

*The vegan chef beating all the competition in a British cooking show

And much more!
