A new campaign called AdFree Cities (https://adfreecities.org.uk/) is looking to ban meat advertisements, and three Dutch cities have already outlawed meaty ads. But will the UK follow suit? And would it achieve anything anyway? Rich & Ant discuss this topic in depth, as well as looking at the top 10 vegan news stories from the week including...

The King's Speech bans live animal exports from the UK...

UK Government taken to court for failing to curb meat & dairy onsumption...

Chat GPT predicts when the world will go vegan...

Cultivated pet food & human breast milk is on the menu (not at the same time!)...

Sainsburys in hot water over insensitive 'pigs in blankets' Christmas card...

Plus lots more!

Enough of the Falafel is a community of people who love keeping on top of the latest news in the world of veganism & animal rights. With the Vegan Week podcast, we aim to keep listeners (& ourselves) informed & up-to-date with the latest developments that affect vegans & non-human animals; giving insight, whilst staying balanced; remaining true to our vegan ethics, whilst constantly seeking to grow & develop.

Each week we look through ten of the top news stories from the past 7 days in the world of veganism & animal rights. Afterwards we slow things down & home in on one topic in particular and pick it apart in more detail.

If you spot any news stories that might catch our fancy, or have an idea for a discussion topic, get in touch via [email protected].
