The usual Piers Ad Hominem Morgan, he's unwatchable. I want to hear about the meat tax but he is rudely talking over her (with his same clicheéd ignorance) for first 5 minutes. Get Earthling ED on to easily debunk his droll statements for good. (soy milk, avocados, quinoa, almonds, the lot.), and all Piers will do to try and dish dirt instead.
I've never understood 'tax or charging' for 'bad things' it's either so agregious that you want to ban it, or you think it's ok to do as long as the person can afford the charge, pricing poor people out of everything, pick one.
Eh, it makes perfect sense to me in most occasions. Taxing cigarettes and high sugar products makes the consumer pay the true cost of them, paying off the increase in health issues and NHS spending their choices have. People should be free to make choices, but the costs of their choices should be reflected in the product. Caroline Lucas here is making a similar logical example for a carbon tax on meat. Any money spent on tax for meat can be used to subsidise lower carbon emitting alternatives, or to be used elsewhere paying now to make the world's future more bearable.
I don't eat meat every day, does that makes me a flexitarians? She talks about 12 years... What is supposed to happen after those 12 years if we do nothing? She sound like those crazy religious predicting the end of times without any solid evidence.
Evidence shows that vegan diets tend to have far lower carbon, water and ecological footprints than those of meat- or fish-eaters. People who follow a plant-based diet account for 75 percent less in greenhouse gas emissions than those who eat more than 3.5 ounces of meat a day, and a vegan diet also results in significantly less harm to land, water and biodiversity, according to new research from the University of Oxford.
Because he kept interrupting her. Her whole point is to have better environmental agriculture policies that benefit the environment globally and locally as well as benefiting the local people. Plus she was making a point that we should at least try to reduce our meat consumption if we can or if we eat too much, you don’t have to be vegan. If you don’t want to stop eating meat that’s fine, I want to keep eating meat too… but we need better policies.
All she's saying is we should all try to eat less meat.
And then he calls her a hypocrite for eating meat at all
For **** sakes. Can Piers just allow the people to speak? That's why they are there.
I agree but in his defense they dont answer the questions but i do agree he should not interupt
For goodness sake allow her to speak!
The more she speaks the more she will make a fool of herself
@@Amza440 I’ve heard her speak unhassled and she doesn’t

Every time one of these disconnected people come on this show I realise we are storming towards the world detailed in Orwell's 1984.
Piers is so rude, dismissive, egocentric, arrogant and condescending.
I‘m glad we don‘t have to see his face on GMB anymore 😂

Flexitarian well I’ve heard it all now!
Well done Piers for calling her out. She didn’t have any answers to defend her stupid stance on meat.
Not really “calling her out” when he wasn’t understanding, or trying to understand, what she was saying
Because he kept interrupting her.

Shut up piers, let her speak
Sorry me again what is it with me and Brunettes ❤️😃
Amelia marry me and I’ll go vegan for you I promise ❤️🤪
