Cosmetic queen Jamie Genevieve, rugby player Ollie Smith and plant-based universities.

Stephen asks - as Stirling University Union becomes the first in the UK to ban meat and dairy - should more organisations follow suit?

PHONE-IN
Stirling University Union has become the first in the UK to ban meat and dairy products. The union has committed to serving only plant-based food in campus outlets, and phasing out all forms of animal produce including cheese, cow’s milk and honey, by 2025.

The move was proposed by the Plant-Based Universities (PBU) campaign - an offshoot of the direct action group Extinction Rebellion and has been supported by wildlife TV presenter Chris Packham. A spokesman for PBU said Stirling Students’ Union is setting a gold standard in environmental policy for other universities to follow. The Countryside Alliance claimed the move was illogical and illiberal.
