Piers Morgan eats steak in front of vegan activist

they've tipped milk all over the floor of fortnum and Mason and salvages in London they've heard white paint at the gates of the houses of Parliament now they've targeted a high-end Steakhouse in London and the waitresses did what many have wanted to do with these protesters for a while take a look joining me now is animal Rebellion spokesman Nathan McGovern and celebrity chef Aldo zilli got it right this time he picked me up but it's Aldo not older Aldo's a very British pronunciation in Italian uh good to see you both uh Nathan start with you um I I don't like vegans very much I don't think any of you are very healthy I'm not surprised by that yeah I think you all look pretty face to face and unhealthy to me um but that's your choice what I don't do is I don't go running into vegan restaurants and start screaming abuse at you all and have to be pulled out by people because you're ruining everyone's fun why do you do that to meat eaters well peers you've started on an absolute blind today I actually brought a little game with me for the me Aldo perhaps the audience to play it so Piers Morgan a vegan Bingo maybe we could zoom on that from the camera and you've actually just ticked off wanna straight away I'll just go with that with looking at row or a column already so the thing is within years technology like Precision fermentation you know alt protein is going to produce the exact same products that you love right now using a fraction of the land producing a fraction mean it's the exact same product no but I like you to me fine you know you'll be in the exact same product the more the more meat I want to eat that's absolutely fine it is that's fine literally it's a bit honestly it's true the more stuff you do like this right I think I didn't catch that it's true is it you've said that about three times I didn't touch it that you like you meet yes oh oh thanks I didn't get it the first three times I'm how committed to vegan are you how committed a vegan am I would you eat do you drink almond milk oh you've ticked off another one fantastic answering questions I don't know I'll keep that one hidden from you take the phone you just answer questions otherwise it's not much of an interview I mean you can have your little child but do you drink almond milk no do you eat almonds no you eat avocados no what do you eat what do you drink I love seasonal British fruit and veg right you know I love supporting British Farmers I love going to a farmer's market seeing what they have to offer you know I love eating a plant-based most science now says that if you don't have a balanced diet it's actually unhealthy for you yeah exactly that's why a plant-based diet a balanced plant-based diet is healthy I'll do but we what do you feel I mean your restaurant is very close to where this happened right what do you feel about these activists running in ruining people's meals listen um 25 years ago I opened one of the first vegetarian restaurants in London it's Soho and if it was now it's probably more successful today and it didn't get very successful but anyway come Carlos very short I don't have any problems I've ridden a vegetarian book not a vegan book I don't have any problems with vegan and veganism and vegetarian people because I have restaurants I'm a consultant for a number of restaurants number of restaurant companies and we have vegan and vegetarians on menus so I don't understand when it gets out of hand that these people have to well they disrupt our business because they have no respect for meat eaters uh but if we were doing the same thing to them they'd all go nuts right wouldn't you you'll go nuts if I came running into your little vegan hell holes and began screaming abuse you'd all throw your toys out the brown as you do on a daily basis I'm gonna throw my toys out the pram right now peers I'm loving this to be honest what are you loving I'm loving it this open conversation that we're having about this actual quote but why'd you have to go and and do a restaurant and disrupt our business disrupt the customers other people that want to eat the meat other people that want to enjoy themselves so they want to go out and have a night out I don't have any problems you guys come into our restaurants and ordering a vegan dish in fact in January we always do a vegan worry and we go through a lot of different ingredients to create menus for you guys I don't understand why we have to suffer your mentality of coming to our restaurants and trying to disrupt the customers that are having a fantastic time and they want to eat the steak what's the answer no it's actually a good question and actually it's fantastic that you create fantastic vegan dishes the fact of the matter is when we look at high-end restaurants you know salt-based restaurant Manor up in Manchester that was also disrupted at the weekend these are symbols of a broken system you know because he makes nice symbols of a broken system where you know there's 1500 quid yeah why is he making millions around the world I was in one of his restaurants last week in Qatar I loved it fantastic but he served me they're always waiting for you to show it it's always wondering how long it would take it's me doing his little uh salt trick he talks you weren't you weren't very good at it even actually chunked it in front of me he fed me actually directly fed me the meat into my mouth it was delicious loved it if you'd run in and tried to interrupt and just ruin everyone's night I would have done what those waitresses did just thrown you out that's absolutely fine so what's the point of view what does it achieve none of you make me want to change my mind I just think what annoying little squids honestly I do it's the same when you're chucking paint at Van Gogh paintings it's the same when you're tying yourself to fuel pumps or hanging yourself on Bridges and stopping people using Dart of a tunnel it's all the same you're just all too annoying so the British public don't like annoying people and they don't like their lives being disrupted they want their freedom to have a choice the choices I had in Qatar last week to have sold by his restaurant you made you to do this to my mouth can you imagine someone coming in your evening have you got the clip we haven't got the clip oh wash oh he's running okay no but can you imagine you coming to uh restaurants and and then you get some people coming to your table and trying to disrupt your evening it's a it's abuse I'm gonna start Ryan I'm going to start running into vegan restaurants so you can't eat your gruel and just see how you look like it I'm gonna go to your house and chop paint all over it yes you've got a right to price oh you've got me another one big enough where's the salt where's where's it I don't need any of this gruel yeah to one side but I will have a bit of steak just to you didn't salt it though you see all you've achieved is you've made me want to do this just absolutely absolutely fine you go for it do you know do you know how many Stakes he's had from my restaurant yeah a lot a lot a lot here's my point I love eating steak I'm not going to stop eating steak Yeah and the the very last thing on Earth that will stop eating steak is people like you with your pasty faces running into our restaurants telling us to stop eating steak that's the very last thing absolutely you don't represent to me Vitality or good health you're just all alone you want a good bit of steak that's absolutely fine you're fully entitled to that opinion and as I've just said earlier you're right to protest if you want to run it your mates are also the extinction Rebellion right my mates you're all like interwoven like you said before we came on like a like a wool and blanket are you connected or not no no so we're a sister movement assistant what's that Rebellion sounds a bit sexy we have you know Common goals you know irritating people such as tackling the climate and ecological emergencies which you know I'm sure all of us what did you think of Megan and Harry using a private plane there we go Meghan Markle that's another one four for nine now I'm not going to give you that what did you think of them using a private plane to go to this uh award show you must be furious it's incredible how you manage to turn this into oh let's dump on Megan your agenda appears I just wonder whether you're not in their plane I just wonder whether do you feel do you feel angry they used a private plane or not what we should have is Affordable Travel for everyone but they they use the uh what we should have is Travel Systems do you criticize something or not you know or because there's a working company you're not allowed today I would have much preferred you know why you can't don't you know thing because this again you don't want to read a headline tomorrow saying Nathan McGovern from animal Rebellion slams Megan and Harry for using private plane you don't want to say it because like them you're a flaming hypocrite you'd rather go in there we go you've got me a column rather go past it you'd rather go into restaurants like Aldos or salt Bays or whatever and just make a nuisance of themselves because you it's easier but what you should be doing for intellectually honest and say Megan and Harry stop using private planes but you won't yeah because they'll say it right now I will say it right now follow us you about a balanced diet most science I've read lately says that actually having no meat in your diet at all is not necessarily A beneficial official for that matter right or fish yeah I mean we have to have a balanced diet and we it's important for our well-being for getting healthy if you work out in the gym like I do I need to have maybe some good protein yeah and if I if I don't I I did go vegan for six months um a couple of years ago I went vegan for an hour adolescence it didn't kill me it didn't give up what about that vegan Greg sausage roll it was disgusting complete record exactly more calories in a Greg's vegan sausage roll than there are in a McDonald's cheeseburgers at least it tastes better it's naming the dishes and you know like the if you want to win an argument you just can't be annoying all the time you can't just ruin everyone's fun and their lives walking around like you have the only way forward for the life in the universe the Nathan McGovern rule book it's not me Thou shalt do this this and this unless the American and Harry then you can do that University it's the ipcc this isn't me I'm not a scientist right I'm perfect I think we'll leave it people Family University of Harvard neither of you and you should listen to you're not an expert I think we'll leave it at that Nathan sorry we didn't get the volunteers oh yeah insects yeah um good to see you both thank you Alden great to see you great to see you Nathan
