Rejected petition Charge vegans for the pointless cost of changing to a fat free £5 note.

Vegans are petitioning to force the Bank of England to eliminate the use of tallow in £5 notes. This is a pointless and rediculous waste of money and resource so the idea should either be quashed or the Vegans themselves be forced to pay for the change.
