One of the permanently offended and outraged has complained that a M & S pie celebrates "Colonial Deaths" and leaves a nasty taste in her mouth. Where do these people get their ideas? Empire Pie. No Tartar sauce then and I suppose a Victoria Sponge is out of the question.

All it has done is give M&S a load of free advertising. Sales will be far higher now!

Sounds nice, I for one will be buying one now where I would not have heard of it if it were not for the 'outrage'.

Not sure where the racism is in this product ?

Barmaid

lol. I never fail to be amused at the things that people get their knickers in a knot over. Some people obviously have too much time on their hands.

standard anti British cobblers, they just look around for things to whine about. Just off to M&S to get some of those pies, thanks for letting me know they are on sale.

Lol Eddie I don't fancy it but may buy one just to make sure that they carry on selling them. People like her find racism everywhere Mikey. Cancel the Irish Stew, it reminds me of the potato famine.

She's been ridiculed on her Twitter account. And quite rightly.

ToraToraTora

I see she actually bought one herself! PMSL! I can't see where it say that it's celebrating anything though.

ummmm

Bunch of saddos....

Togo.......I am quite prepared to battle against racism, as you may have noticed !

But I think this daft woman is barking up the wrong tree here. If she wants to address racism in Britain, there are many other issues that she can pick to fight on.

Zacs-Master

If you look at her Twitter account, she has an opinion on everything. She must spend her life on there.
