EU lawmakers have voted to ban the use of the term “veggie-burger” and to restrict food descriptions such as steak, escalope, and sausage to products containing meat. The move is part of a proposed regulation intended to protect farmers.

no i don’t think so, i don’t think they’re very likely to win a seat at all

if both parties get MSPs elected then i’d expect them to work together on areas of agreement, but i can’t see any justification or possible benefit for either party for any kind of working arrangement pre-election

at Westminster the Greens and Your Party have sitting MPs and could potentially coordinate where they target their resources, at Holyrood we’ll both be trying to win list seats in each region, effectively a zero-sum game, as every vote for YP is a vote against the SGP and vice-versa

the big difference between the potential relationships between GPEW and Your Party, and the Scottish Greens and Your Party, is that in the latter case we will be directly competing for votes in every seat that’s winnable for either of us

if Kevin McKenna has a bet on what the most absurd thing he can submit and the Herald will still publish, he’s winning handsomely

see also workplaces reimbursing people for a flu jab but not a covid one, i know £90 is more than £25, but potentially losing several days of labour from an employee is more than either!

this is also why i don’t get not offering covid too because it’s not like that many people will bother either way

Euan @euan.bsky.social · 1d

why is there a ten year period of your life where it’s bad for you to get the flu but not covid, why is it okay for you to get covid if you work in a healthcare setting but not the flu, etc, etc

i appreciate they do a cost-benefit analysis and that the jabs are different prices, but it does seem sort of fundamentally wrong that the eligibility criteria for covid and flu innoculations are different

regular Lolita Express passenger Steven Pinker has some thoughts on the corruption of female-only spaces

flyingrodent @flyingrodent.bsky.social · 2d

If your considered analysis is that everyone has gone completely mad except for you, then is it likely that’s what happened? Or is it you that is the arse here.

"the left has allowed itself to become shackled by unpopular luxury beliefs: abolishing the police, opening the borders, the corruption of female-only spaces. Everyone has gone mad...associated with the observable decline in literacy across the rich West"
