Students vote to rid university union of meat and dairy and enforce a vegan menu - as they're accused of crushing freedom of choice
Last week, the University of Stirling's student union voted to transition move to '100 per cent plant-based catering' within three years, and half of the options are set to be vegan by the 2023-24 academic year.
Of the around 6,000 votes cast in the campus-wide referendum in the capital, 58 per cent rejected a proposal to ban the sale of beef on campus.Brentford and England striker Ivan Toney charged with 232 counts of breaching betting rulesMen killed by missile attack in Poland four miles from Ukrainian border as west blames Putin for starting rocket blitz
Mo Metcalf-Fisher, a spokesman for the organisation said: "Obviously this is an attack on freedom of choice imposed by a tiny number of students on the wider student body, but it is also illogical. "Stirling University should demonstrate their support for Scottish farmers by ensuring they continue to supply meat and dairy, irrespective of what its students' union decide to do'."
