Gateshead pigshead

[hitmouse]

Could've gone in the local news headlines thread I suppose, but thought it was maybe a bit heavy for there. Anyway:

Probe as pig heads left outside Birtley pub

The heads were left in an apparent protest alongside posters making personal claims about two people.

www.bbc.co.uk

Every update on police probe into pigs' heads displayed near Gateshead pub

Police are on the scene near Birtley's Coach and Horses pub - where there are reports pigs' heads were displayed overnight

www.chroniclelive.co.uk

Pig’s head hung on pub door with ‘allegations about two people’

CCTV footage showed five people in balaclavas carrying out the attack on the Coach and Horses in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear

www.telegraph.co.uk

Torygraph link included cos it has the information that the targets are claimed to be grasses, whereas the others just say "various claims" etc. No idea if there's any connection to the Gateshead FC hearse invasion or if that's just unrelated Gateshead business.

Not heard of pig's heads as a grass thing, but it has been used as an Islamaphobic act before...

Apparently, It’s the usual not publicity shy suspects and their clan. There’s been a low level ongoing scuffle going on for a while. No shooters or anything but kickings and running people over.

They couldn't afford a horse or get it into their bed.

Thought it was a call to universal love if the billionaire tech bros can get on, maybe there's hope.

You made the wrong thread though.

blxxdy 'ell.
I don't get it - why decorate the pub if you're getting at a couple of individuals who don't own/ work at the place, or have any connection with it other than it's a local watering hole ?

Glad I moved out of the conurbation !
