Harper Adams Students’ Union blasted for Veganuary post >More in
Harper Adams Students’ Union (HASU) has apologised and deleted a social media post supporting Veganuary after it was heavily criticised by students and alumni.
A barrage of complaints from angry students via the university’s website, social media pages and telephone line forced the HASU into the U-turn and to admit “we got this one wrong”.
He told
Farmers Weekly: “I think the significance of this is that not only is veganism causing serious mental health issues in the farming community, but it is destroying farmers’ livelihoods. For an agricultural university to support this is really quite shocking.”
