That explains it!

Written by 

According to a recent survey, more than one in 10 Kiwis now say they are vegetarian – up 2% from 2011.

The Hound reckons it's no wonder this country is going to hell in a hand cart.

The poll by Roy Morgan Research, also found a much higher rate of vegetarianism in the North Island than the South Island.

It surveyed people aged 14 or older and found 10.38% of Kiwis described themselves as mostly or always vegetarian.

That figure was up from 8.1% in 2011. In the North Island, the figure was 11.1%, up from 8.4%, while in the South Island it was 7.8%, up from 6.9%.

Your old mate reckons it will take more than God to defend New Zealand when an agricultural-based nation like ours has around 10% of its population associating themselves as white, pasty, lentil munchers!
