It's not really a story is it - one person claiming to speak for everyone, and a few Asian youths doing what youths do which is mouthing nonsense.

[Spicerack]

Slow news day. Did you read the letter? I thought it was funny.

[Jackdaw33]

I can think of much funnier names to call the café, all of which would be deliberately calculated to cause maximum offence to snowflakes, veggies and their ROP adherents.

There's a café in Leamington Spa called the Fat Birds Café.

It has a little picture of a feathered bird next to the name, in case anyone misunderstands.

[Old_Geezer]

Run by San & Tray ?

[murraymints]

Too many snowflakes around ! Bit of fun..Michael Winner had a "big fat pig diet" book.. Sold well..tongue in cheek !

[mallyh]

then when you've eaten there you can go and buy clothes at fatface x

[10ClarionSt]

I know, PJ. I can vouch for that!

Calm down pumpjack, no need for profanities disguised or not.

Not sure how you stop people writing a letter but the harassment should be addressed.

I'm sure the owner has a good customer base that will support the cafe.

More shrouded reporting. Most ‘Asians’ don’t find pigs offensive - just the Muslim variety. The police haven’t taken this lightly and neither should anyone else.

Calm down pumpjack, no need for profanities disguised or not.


its very hard too, when faced with this stupid silly nonsense now on a daily basis.

and, i could put my life savings on who is kicking up a stink over this...either muslims or fat overweight feminists

[Mamyalynne]

You could.

[ummmm]

I call my kids greedy pigs (they are) whether they've eaten pig or not. It's just a phrase.

[LadyCG]

I'm a greedy pig. I've just eaten a big bag of grapes. Fingers crossed they start to ferment.

[naomi24]

The complainers have chosen to come to live in a country where people farm pigs, eat pigs, and are even quite fond of Peppa Pig. If they don’t like it they should find somewhere to live that’s more to their liking.

[LadyCG]

Like their ancestral homeland...

[SlackAlice]

If I was the owner, I'd open up another shop called 'Pork Scratchings'

[douglas9401]

Heard the owners next venture is to be a fusion of Sub-continent and Russian cuisine.

They're toying with the name Mosque-O.

[Spicerack]

I'd open a hot dog van.
