So what is it about vegans that people hate so much? Well it could be that many vegans seem to be “outspoken” stubborn and possibly rather emotional. No one likes people who have got too much to say, especially if it is stuff that themselves and many others aren’t going to agree on. Thus their ability to eliminate so many foods out of their diet, for emotional reasons, and to then throw it all back in people’s faces isn’t going to make them very popular. Though I am sure that most are very good at exaggerating the words of vegans! But whether these characteristics are actually staged or not, some of the reasons as to why people go vegan such as the extent of the barbaric practices which take place within the meat industry seem to present a significant emotional challenge to non vegans

The Basic Issues of Fast Fashion
Introduction Hiya, well back at the end of February, I made myself a small commitment. In that I wasn’t going to buy anything from Primark during the whole of March; or actually any of these fast fashion outlets, why do we always target Primark eh?

What’s wrong with BMIs?
There is a pretty pronounced problem in with obesity within the UK, but surely it is an exaggeration to say that almost two thirds of adults in the UK are either overweight or obese. Well according to BMI standards this is the case. But most people realise that there are going to be people who have a higher amount of bone or muscle mass compared to others of their size, and we know that BMI doesn’t account for this. Yet did you also know that mortality rates are much lower in both genders with a higher BMI?
The Working Class and Class Politics:
Who are the working class in Britain, who speaks up for them thus how are they inclined to vote? Years ago it felt fairly simple and obvious with a party, strongly aligned with trade unions, who’s key aims were to improve workers rights, make their lives more comfortable and really made society that bit fairer.
Can our Stationery Fiasco be explained?
whenever I walk past somewhere like paperchase, I cannot resist taking a wander in and looking at all of the various pens, notepads and rubbers (as well as the Boris Johnson dog toys) just to see what they have on offer. But how healthy is our new found love of stationery?
Is Britain Really a Dog Loving Nation?
are we taking this love for dogs a little too far, to the point where we are letting ourselves to be provoked into fueling an industry that does more damage than anything else to dogs? Because do dogs really enjoy being used as dolls to put clothing onto, is it fair that we pose a huge risk to the health of dogs in making them look “more desirable”, and can we really all call ourselves a “dog loving nation” or dog lovers when we always have been and still are using dogs and other animals for our own benefit?
Should we Actually Grow Up; Instead of trying to “Glow Up”?
“How to Glow up over quarantine”, “Glow up series 2 crowns winner ” , “Glow up challenge: How to become prettier in one month” are just some of what pops up if we type up this term. Which in my view just gives a small glimpse into some of the pressures faced day to day,Continue reading “Should we Actually Grow Up; Instead of trying to “Glow Up”?”
Free Speech vs Cancel Culture: Why not Listen?
Cancel Culture has dominated a lot off the media lately. Yet in spite off a lot off the crap which has been cancelled, there are many people who still advocate for freedom off speech. And while I would say that freedom of speech shouldn’t equate to freedom to saying something which could hurt someone, people do need to be educated.
It has been nearly a year now since getting my GCSE results, and I still think that the new 1-9 grading system is shit
As I am sure you all know too well, this year the whole process of “grading” at the moment is a little bit up in the air. This is due to the pandemic, meaning that students weren’t able to be in school for quite a few months, and therefore they would not have been ableContinue reading “It has been nearly a year now since getting my GCSE results, and I still think that the new 1-9 grading system is shit”
