    I mean, this isn't what happened tho, is it? He responded to a v sensible pitch slagging off a quarter of their customer base...https://twitter.com/JournoStephen/status/1057586393524957186 …

    This is nuts. The editor of @waitrose food magazine has resigned for MAKING A JOKE IN AN EMAIL. https://waitrosecare.secure.force.com/waitroseCARE/articles/FAQs/Waitrose-Partners-Food-Magazine-Statement/?l=en_US&c=External_Support_Articles:Trading_Policy_Statements&fs=Search&pn=1 …

        That's why they're rolling out their Vegan range - a quarter of Waitrose customers are doing reducitarian, vegan or vegetarian diets and they want to expand into that market.

        Amazed at the notion that this was a joke. World has lost its marbles when it comes to civility.

        I'm a vegan and think he was a douche but that's terrible for him to lose his job over it. Doesn't appear proportionate to me

        Yeah, I don't think that the sacking is proportionate, just that Daisley's framing of what happened is off.

        I mean, I'm not PR or communications expert, but I don't think making a joke about killing vegans to a vegan is the best way to go about things, at best it's a baller move...

        Grown ups using the "bants" defence to wave away rude condescending behaviour from a position of power is ridiculous

        If I sent an email like that from my work email account to someone enquiring about business with my company, I’d be sacked.

        doubt if vegans are that high a % surely - even for Waitrose, where Vegan is the new Gluten Free. Veganism not good for all good for animals. It means they have no purpose, and we all know what happens then - see the High Street

        What makes you think the life of, say, a factory-farmed hen is better than not existing at all?
