Nothing. But what’s wrong with calling something a veggie burger, which is a term I’ve used for the 40+ years I’ve been vegan or vegetarian? And what would be the alternative to veggie sausage? Veggie spherocylinder? Veggie capsule?

Ice-skating or snow I could understand. It’s the water that’s so odd. Unless … it’s meant to represent the thaw following the Great Frost of 1683–4? I suppose that might be something to smile about!

The irony is that the truly woke bread is wholemeal sourdough, which is impossible to find in an English supermarket.

Russell Square? Or one of the many others designed by Leslie Green. Might be one that has since been demolished.
