McDonalds Empire collapses - Manchester evidence

NotDonald's Street Cafe opened outside a branch of everybodies least favourite 'food' outlet on Oxford Road, Manchester today.

NotDonald's Street Cafe opened outside a branch of everybodies least favourite 'food' outlet on Oxford Road, Manchester today.

Free veggie burgers, with a selection of condiments and salad in a wholemeal bun were distributed to passing Mancunians, as the envoys of Ronalds evil empire could only look on in despair. McDonald's shareprice collapsed to an all time low and thousands of people committed to a vegan sustainable future before burning all the multinationals fast food joints in the city to the ground.

See for yourself...

It was a great day!
I was pretty pissed off we couldnt do it on the thursday, and just had to give out leaflets, but it turned out we had two good days.
We set it up fairly quickly, and got everything ready, all looking quite neat and tidy, with some music playing. Mcdonalds said they'd call the cops, so we carried on cooking.
The funny thing was people really didnt wanna take the free food at first, they looked very suspicious and asked if it was meat, or if it was lentels :D but after a queue formed, loads of people started wanting them! how british is that! one guy said he didnt want any because we cut the letuce on a chopping board that was on the floor...jesus, some people.
anyway, apart from one bored cop confiscating ronalds toy gun, they were ok and only turned up after about 3 hours when we had pretty much finished. Lots of people were supportive and gave donations.
thanks to everyone who helped out, and i hope we can do it again soon.
