A: Extinction Rebellion co-founder Roger Hallam has taken to Twitter to
share his frustration in an 11-point thread after he was served carrots
and a handful of potatoes for dinner as the 'vegan option' in hospital.
Mr Hallam posted a photo of an almost empty plate from his bed which had
just a portion of carrots on it, writing 391 words on the environmental
benefits of going vegan - but did admit he had already eaten the 'six'
potatoes that were served on the side.
The controversial environmentalist, 56, who also helped form eco mobs
Insulate Britain and Just Stop Oil, has been in hospital after
'crushing' his leg during an accident while riding his bike. [ ... ]

B: social media users were quick to point out that although the meal may
look rather scarce, it was vegan.
They also critcised the 56-year-old for admitting he had already eaten a
significant part of the food before taking the photo.
One user replied: 'Do you want those carrots or not?'
A second said: 'At least you'll be able to see in the dark'.
A third added: 'I don't think he's grasped the vegan thing if he's left
his veg.'
Another user, who took issue with the pure length of Mr Hallam's
comments, said: 'Boiled vegetables causing such gushing, uncontrolled
sprays of verbal diarrhoea is a new one, I have to admit.'

Oh dear.
How *sad*.
Never mind.
Extinction Rebellion, yet another group who could best serve the planet by walking naked into the Atlantic.
