Absolute rubbish, where will it all end with the idiots.Will they change the name Shortbread soon as well.
 
The Pogues christmas song was banned in a Swansea store over Christmas, for a similar thing.
True story.
 
If Jellybabies, with their massive heads, were called Midget Gems I’d get it. Other than that it’s another thing I don’t care about.
 
On top of that, they are cutting benefits payments to dwarfs now.
They are gonna struggle to put food on the table.!!
