Brexit Champion Frustrated At Impact Of Brexit: Pigs In Blankets Missing From Dishes

17/12/2019

Customers of JD Wetherspoon have apparently been upset at the inability of the pub chain to supply the seasonal favourite 'pigs in blankets'.

The British Meat Association (BMA) warned, in October, that pigs in blankets may be in short supply this year due to a lack of seasonal EU workers across UK meat plants.

The Wetherspoon pub chain warned customers about the issue using posters:

"Owing to a supplier issue, our pigs in blankets will be without their blankets,"

The George pub in Croydon.

The BBC photographed the poster on Monday, but by Tuesday, The George pub said it had resolved the issue.  However, some people are still reporting that pubs had signs up saying no 'pigs in blankets' on Wednesday morning.
