...just thought I'd share this gorgeous new friend I met just now whilst out filming. So innocent. So curious. No idea what lies in store for them. Most human interaction they get is from dog walkers and farmers, I get to go home to my warm, sheltered free life. Felt touching and sad. #GoVegan

As a modern pagan I secretly revel in how much my religion worries monotheists #GuiltyPleasures
A painting of the pagan god Cernunnos. He has horns, a torc round his neck and a brown beard and long flowing brown hair. He holds two snakes and below him is a stag, a wolf and a hog hidden amongst some Ivy. A starry night sky is the backdrop.

Using an animal for their body, and then killing them for their body is not a personal choice. Just because we outsource the gore, suffering and grime does not mean you can relinquish responsibility for your actions. The only ethical choice is to #GoVegan today!
There is a picture if a cow looking dad with two ear tags in. The caption reads: 'Its not a personal choice when someone is killed. Use plants. Not animals.'

Transgenderism has always existed. Gender was never a dichotomy of 2 genders. Historically, this was never the case, apart from minor taxonomic / religious blips. Attacking our beautiful trans friends is one of our biggest acts of social violence. Happy #TransAwarenessDay #TransRightsAreHumanRights
A graphic with the words 'Trans Rights are Human Rights' - over the top of a picture if the earth and dark space behind, behind the earth is an extended trans flag.

Imagine going to the supermarket and being faced with this. #Easter lambs are killed at 10 weeks to one year old. 25% of all sheep and lambs are killed in the U.K without stunning. They also endure tail docking and castration. Leave living beings off your plate this #easter. #GoVegan Sources: Viva!
A selection of packaged supermarket meats include dead human babies with meat stamps on their heads.

#Speciesism was a term coined by Dr. Melanie Joy. It gives a name to the social construct within which we offer love and affection to dogs but use and kill pigs. There is no rational difference between a dog and a pig. Keep both off your plate. #GoVegan
A picture of the silhouettes of a dog, a pig, a lion and a deer. The dog has the label 'rescue' the pig 'eat' the lion 'pity' and the deer 'kill'. Across the top the image is labelled 'hypocrisy'.

This is a little embarrassing to admit as a final year trainee psychologist...but I think for the first time in my life I'm only just coming to terms with the fact I'm an introvert.

'Where do you get your protein from?' asks many a non vegan. Beans, pulses, tofu, plant milk, bread, pasta, tempeh, meat subs, seitan...going vegan is easier than you think. For the animals, our planet and your body! #GoVegan #FriendsNotFood
'So, where do you get your protein?' asks a human to a gorilla, wildebeest, rhino and elephant.
