To protest or not to protest?

I’ve been having a thoughful few days. Is life as a vegan enough? Is sharing things about veganism and animal cruelty on blogs and facebook enough. I’ve also been thinking about why I haven’t been more actively invloved and the answer is fear. I don’t want to get in trouble. Yet what would I actually be doing wrong? Standing up and saying that I believe it is wrong to murder or abuse...

Kill the Badgers!…Or do what you can to save them.

Yet again, the UK is going back to murdering Badgers. People fought tooth and nail to stop the Welsh cull and now this (full BBC article below). Please write to the governement, your MP or sign an online petition to say that this is no way to go forward, especially with no hard evidence to prove a link between badgers and Bovine TB. We should let the Badgers live their lives as naturally as they can. Maybe if...

Knowsley Safari Park

Knowsley Safari Park comes under fire today after I saw a message from one of the members of the Manchester Vegan Society about an article from the Sun newspaper. The park regularly cull animals and use this as a training session for staff, meaning that some animals are not killed humanely (not that they should be killed in the first place of course). I would advise you to read the article, if only to have the...

Vegan Purses

As you may know I have just set up a small online shop selling ethical goods such as vegan purses and recycled and fair trade bags, jewellery and gifts. Some of the jewellery is hand made, other items commissioned or bought in from trusted acquaintances! I’ve just got a new line of vegan purses in and they are gorgeous. Have one myself! It’s so hard to find a good non leather purses. Usually as vegans...

Emperor of Exmoor

So some disgusting bastard has killed the most magnificent stag in the county. Well done. You must be so proud that you can shoot a gun and kill such a big and beautiful animal. I am furious and trying to resist swearing a lot as I write. I hate people who think this is acceptable. HATE THEM. I’m not just sad for this stag and it’s family. I’m sad for all animals and ashamed of my fellow men. I’ve...

Guest Article & Great Tofu Burger Recipe!

I was recently contacted by Martha Volz , who writes for the Vegetarian Supplements site, her personal passion blog devoted to vegetarian healthy eating ideas. She asked if she could write an article for Shout Vegan about new research from the United Nations (UN) that suggests a correlation between climate change and meat consumption. After reading the article, and the great recipe which I will be testing...

We’re playing double standards again!

Yesterday I read the below article from the Telegraph with interest. I would have posted it up straight away had I not been in bed with the flu. However, upon dragging myself up today I thought  the first thing I wanted to do was highlight the hypocrisy yet again in our society.  Please read this article (and take note if it makes you angry or upset) and I will continue… Up to a million Hindus gathered...
