I'd be the last person to use any racist or homophobic terms, but to my mind, that's not the same as jokingly referring to somebody as a "treehugger". Perhaps I'm wrong and my vegan mate is secretly seething with resentment!

We're singing from the same hymn sheep, but just change 'tree hugger' to 'came down from a banana tree', or making ape like noises every time a black player has the football, and I suppose this Bill if offering faith groups, and vegetarians, similar protection from abuse.
