I trust a significant custodial sentence will be handed down to this cowardly individual.....,

Barmaid left with serious injuries in attack by angry drinker

A BARMAID suffered serious facial injuries after being punched by a customer outside an East Lancs pub.

When I saw Punch Hotel in the photo I thought this might be something from the Daily Dafty.

Nothing more cowardly for me than a bloke attacking a woman. Might sound sexist in the gender-fluid fantasy land we apparently live in now, but in reality I'd say the average woman is about as strong as a 12 year old boy. So its like breaking the jaw of a kid in terms of the strength disparity. I.e. absolutely pathetic.

Correct b&wh. A gentleman should never punch a lady.....

...... an open handed slap usually suffices to keep them in order.

How come east lancs has missed out?
"Tracy Brabin, the Labour mayor of West Yorkshire, said: "West Yorkshire has a strong and thriving economy, and I'm pleased the government has recognised the strength of our innovation by choosing to work with us to deliver an investment zone."

Well east lancs bloody well hasn't!

I would not give anything to BwD council, they’ll only waste it.

Conditions need to be attached or the town will be overrun with council funded Sheesha bars.

I think all councils waste money.

The current thing seems to be ripping trees down to install 5g spy cameras.

Used to be one by my old place on the quays in Manchester. Cash only, which I suspect was the main modus operandi for opening.

And no doubt drug linked

It’s the same with the Bulgarian and Albanian owned Turkish barbers. My old Oxfordshire village had 4 by the time I left. Population of less than 8,000 mainly elderly……

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

The Turkish barbers around here are mostly Kurds who have fled persecution by the Syrians and Turks ironically.

Oh good! Another Muslim restaurant in Blackburn! Like we are really short of them eh? This'll go the same way as others.... take a few grand start up from the council's 50m and then close down asap.
What price a few labour votes eh?
