Yeas and no. I straightaway made the connection I imagine quite a few others will too.

Firefox offers me articles it thinks I'll find interesting, today I got:
getpocket.com
I'm not sure that "being cancelled by a plant-based takeover" is that high on my list of concerns, afaict the article seems to consist of some people complaining that sometimes they're offered a vegetarian option that doesn't include any eggs or dairy in it? 
The death of the vegetarian
Veggies outnumber vegans by almost two million, but they’re in danger of being cancelled by a plant-based takeover of the nation’s menus

So many particulars. So many questions.
's the dire conclusion of the market research company, Mintel, which carried out a similar survey last year.' churnalsim- nice bit about the samosas there, nudge wink.

Sadly not. Over the weekend they did a dog whistling bonanza about the death of tea and biscuits because of "exotic" alternatives. Using "samosa" is deliberate.

The decline in tea drinking isn't news though. It's increasingly an older person's thing, plus more alternatives now. Attributing it to 'culture wars' is spurious though. It's just young v old.

you can have biscuits with coffee too
i think this is because sugar is avoided more and people are more health conscious in general

The 'anti-woke' thing is mad isn't it. Just a generalised rage at any sort of change with a weird quasi-political veneer on it. It's not that people like samosas it's that Black Lives Matter have banned Bourbons or something.

What next. Woodbines rejected by trendy woke activists as popular wartime smoke takes center stage in the culture wars.

This is the lazy write up of a marketing companies survey couched in the house style and ridden with the papers 'normal' obsessions- the young, forrins, young forrins, tradition flaunted etc.
Everything described in flat earth news thats fucked about newsrooms and newspapers has only intensified over the years.

I still think the best example of this was the Mail's "woke builders talking about history and their feelings and not eating fried breakfasts", but this is a fine example too.

That the Torygraph is turning increasingly Daily Mailesque in its desperately biased reporting has been obvious for a while. Today they have plumbed yet new depths as they actually attempt to suggest that the indescribably shit and cringeworthy MOTD episode last night was actually an improvement on the usual output

It did apparently have higher viewing figures than is usual. I suspect that is because people wanted to see what was actually happening.That the Torygraph is turning increasingly Daily Mailesque in its desperately biased reporting has been obvious for a while.

Yes, undoubtedly. Everyone loves a car crash moment. But the Tory press must be extremely desperate to try to paint that as a sign of an improvement from its regular format. If the Beeb were to actually make last night’s shitshow the new MOTD normal, this time next month the PaInt Drying Channel Live would be getting more viewers.

I watched about a minute of it. It was appalling but I did get to bed earlier on Saturday night than normal; so swings and roundabouts.
