Johnson’s Brexit Reception Menu: The Roast Beef of Old England; Vegans not welcome
The BBC has reported that Johnson is holding a Brexit Day reception at 10 Downing St tonight and detailed the menu which consists of English sparkling wine and canapes.
The wine will certainly be decent enough and while the canapes will be fine for meat eaters and probably for most vegetarians its notable that there is no fish and, depending how the mushroom tart is made, very likely no plant based food either.
This by the way is not Brexit Britain, where such things will continue to be available but Johnsonian Britain where the Roast Beef of Old England rules
On the menu will be English sparkling wine and a selection of canapes, including fillet of lamb on toast, Shropshire blue cheese, beef and Yorkshire pudding with horseradish sauce, mushroom tarts and roast chicken skewers.
