Vegetarians as Terror Suspects - has the world gone completely mad?

My husband is one of the most peace loving, reasonable, moderate, kind and generally good people you could ever wish to meet.

Yet the Government might well have him under suspicion for terrorist activities.

Why?

For some reason they have decided that ordering vegetarian food on an aeroplane indicates malevolence of purpose.

Other suspcious indicators include travelling with a foreign born husband or wife - the Queen better watch out then, given that her husband was born in Greece - or making a last minute booking for a flight. Better watch out on the impulsive romantic gestures front, then.

You have to seriously wonder at the mindset of the people who make these things up.

Let's hope they don't send people round to search my food cupboards -they are full of lentils and chick peas. No doubt we'll be under a Control Order in no time....

  2. And the only vegetarian thing I ever eat is veggie haggis.

Thanks for your comment. As long as it doesn't libel anyone, and isn't abusive, I'll publish it. I try to respond to as many as I can, but please forgive me if I don't. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day. I read and appreciate every one, even those specifically aimed at winding me up.
