And then there’s this, over in Britishland:
An award-winning fish and chip shop has been ordered to remove a Union flag mural by council officials ‘because it’s inappropriate for the area’.
Chris Kanizi, 65, who owns Golden Chippy, in Greenwich, south-east London, has been told to paint over the mural of the humanoid fish which is adored by tourists.
Greenwich council said they received a ‘number of complaints’ about the mural, which features the phrase ‘A Great British Meal’, they said was an ‘unauthorised advert’.
And here’s the oh-so offensive item in question:
Imagine a burger place in Murka being told to take down a sign which reads “The All-American Meal” because some immigrants might feel excluded.
Of course, the UK has no First Amendment, so government can do pretty much whatever the fuck it wants to do in cases like this.
