VEGANS are fighting for the same legal rights as followers of religions in a landmark legal case.
They want their beliefs recognised to give them protection from discrimination at work and in other walks of life.
Jordi Casamitjana has launched a landmark legal case to give vegans the same legal rights as those who follow religions[/caption]
‘Ethical vegan’ Jordi claims he was dismissed by the League Against Cruel Sports for telling colleagues it invested pension funds in animal testing firms[/caption]
The case is being brought by self-styled ethical vegan Jordi Casamitjana after he was sacked by the League Against Cruel Sports.
The 54-year-old, who says he was fired for telling colleagues the group was investing in animal testing companies, is taking his fight to an employment tribunal in March.
His lawyer, Peter Daly, said he wanted a judgement which “formally recognises the protected status of ethical veganism”.
He said it could then be used as the basis to fight discrimination against vegans in employment, in the provision of goods and services and in education.

The league disputes the claim, saying the Londoner was fired for gross misconduct.
It somes as meaty sayings like “Bring home the Bacon” could soon die out — to be replaced by alternatives like “Bring home the Bagels”.
Animal rights charity Peta has compiled a list of phrases which could be made vegan-friendly.
We’ve listed more that could get the chop.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
