Eating meat could be banned like smoking, says top barrister, as he calls for new crime of 'ecocide'

Eating meat could be banned like smoking, one of Britain’s foremost barristers has predicted, as he called for the offence of ‘ecocide’ to be introduced to prosecute those who damage the nature on a massive scale.

I quite like it , never been a meat eater couldn't afford it ..

Jada and Will Smith would like to tell you sth.

Watch this: Your salivations are a perfectly natural response to a food group humans have desired for many millennia. Protein!

So white Americans in the 19 century did the world a favour by killing of the mass buffalo herds. Of course in the short term it also helped the demise of the native North Americans via starvation!

Yes it is! Totally preposterous..

Can't wait for meat tourism

You people are nuts. You would kill off industry, and food supply on a concept that in 20 years or so MIGHT change the carbon level .002 %. PLANT TREES, LOTS OF TREES.

All kinds of crazy jump on the soapbox and spew their nonsense these days. Unfortunately there are fools who take them seriously.

Barristers should be banned for the damge too. What you will decide to ban next? Wevhave enough dictatorships.

How many trees could be saved each day if the Daily Telegraph closed down?

Well looks like it's the outlaw life for me soon

Best not mention population growth’s impact on the planet then - maybe looking at birth rates amongst certain religions and ethnic groups would be a good starting point.

Question!Why do vegans want to make these extinct?

hard to take the MSM seriously - if you said cannibalism to be legalised I would take more notice

Why don’t you start your plan in India. Get them to do without cows first and the rest may follow?

Eating meat doesn't do any damage to the planet.

This is preposterous & moronic

Smoking isn’t banned or illegal, just not allowed to do it in certain places. Eating meat isn’t causing any damage to the planet, the rearing of animals may be causing an effect though

Surely if smoking that was that bad it would be banned. Last I smelt of it it’s not been banned.

Maybe we should all stay in bed and keep the curtains closed?

Breathing should be banned immediately as man inhales 0.003% of CO2 but exhales about 4% of CO2. Please folks stop breathing for a couple of hours !

It is literally becoming a religion to these nutters. Control freaky elite are so frightened they need to control everything we do. Maybe it'll be the end of democracy, but it won't be them who win the control. They are too weak minded.

Pfft

Random Twitter user says top barristers should mind their own bloody business.

More climate change buffoonery.

Soylent green it is then...

How do these people ever get taken seriously. Bar Council should look into his mental health

For fucks sake had enough of you liberals and climate change cult members

Really? 😮

More prohibitions drive up the crime rate. In future, driving a car with a combustion engine, smoking, eating meat, shopping with a plastic bag. People how easy it is to become a criminal in the future.

Those pesky cows and sheep have a lot to answer for.

My doctor has just advised me to go back to meat eating after my vegetarian diet.

This marxist socialist globalist movement needs a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to the face. Climate change,meat eating,green energy on & on & on

Idiocy - more lecturing by right-on lefties

Nonsense Filthy conspired study.

There are quite a number of meat eaters on this planet besides humans.

You didn't believe me because I had that tinfoil hat on.
