The vegan activists needed to be eliminated by the cops from the fine-dining restaurant
Animal Rights activists supposedly held a sit-in at popular Michelin-star restaurant in the West End of Glasgow last night.
Five individuals were apprehended by Police Scotland after 7 activists from the animal rights demonstration group, Animal Rising, occupied reserved seating in the Cail Bruich restaurant throughout peak supper service at 7.30pm, May 20.
The Scottish fine-dining restaurant had service held up by the activists – who supposedly sat at reserved tables and held up placards showcasing conditions within agriculture in the UK.
The Glasgow action belonged to an arranged UK-wide demonstration which saw 6 cities take part in public non-violent action, consisting of Glasgow.
The day prior, Friday May 19, Animal Rising activists inhabited a dairy farm near Dorchester in England – in which 30 fans sat among 1,000 calves seperated from their moms.
Yesterday’s demonstration wished to take the discussion directly to the ‘fine-dining dinner table’. Animal Rising said that ‘these high-end restaurants are at the center of our broken relationship with the natural world, with animal suffering and wildlife degradation being sold for extortionate prices.’
The Michelin-Star restaurant in the West End appeared to be targeted for its addition of meat on the menu – their Saturday night service begins at £140 per individual.
Releasing a declaration on Twitter soon after the Glasgow arrest, Animal Rising composed:”Police remain in participation at a number of dining establishments and arrests have actually already been made at Cali Bruich in Glasgow.
“Like you and I, these people taking action care deeply about animals, nature and the future of our planet. We must stand (or sit!) together.
“There is strength in numbers when calling out our destructive food system and this action was six cities strong! Animal Rising is growing faster than we could have hoped. Now is the time to join us and be part of historic change.

Other targeted cities by the animal rights group consisted of: Southampton, Bristol, Birmingham, Lancaster, and London.
Similar sit-in action was kept in each city – in London the activists inhabited viral steak feeling ‘Salt Bae’s’ restaurant – which serves steak garnished with gold flakes, costing upwards of £700 a piece.
Just last month 25 Animal Rising activists tried to interfere with the Scottish Grand National in Ayr.
They stormed the track prior to the huge race in hopes of bringing the day to a close, however were quickly accompanied from the properties by cops who prepared for the demonstration.
